Joining a long legacy of breed-shaping stallions to stand at Waikato Stud, three generations of the Chittick family have placed their confidence in Return To Conquer, with the A$1.3 million yearling and unbeaten Group 1-winning son of the four-time Champion Sire and Champion Two-Year-Old sire, Snitzel, to take his position on the Waikato roster in 2026.

Racing fans rejoice, because we are about to launch into serious Melbourne Autumn carnival action with the running of the $1million VRC Black Caviar Lightning Stakes at WFA, the first leg of the southern “Triple Crown” for the speedsters, and (since 2005) the first leg of the Global Sprint Challenge.
