Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted May 5 Journalists Share Posted May 5 Inglewood Stud’s young stallion War Decree will stand at a slightly increased fee of $7,000 +GST in 2024, up from $5,500 in 2023. The announcement comes off the back of a strong season for the son of War Front. With his oldest just four-year-olds, he produced five stakes performers led by the exciting 3YO Warmonger, a stakes winner at Flemington on Melbourne Cup Day and a fast finishing second in last weekend’s G1 South Australian Derby. “It was a magnificent run in the Derby by Warmonger,” said Inglewood Stud’s Gus Wigley. “From a wide draw he ended up back and four wide most of the trip and went round them on the bend to run down all but the winner. He’s going to be a very exciting Cups horse next season.” War Decree has also made a quick impact in Hong Kong where three of his four runners are already winners, while at Karaka this year his yearlings sold very well, fetching up to $150,000 and averaging over 10 times his service fee at $69,000. “We’re very pleased with the way War Decree is tracking, he consistently leaves a very good looking horse and is leaving winners all over Australasia and to boot he has now shown he can leave a Group One class horse. “He’s proving well sought after in the trade market and also in the sales ring, and importantly his fillies are in as much demand as his colts, so we see him as a very safe horse for breeders to use.” View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
