Aquis has announced it will relocate its NSW based stallions to Gooree Park Stud for the 2020 breeding season.
“In a very short period of time, Aquis have made great inroads into the thoroughbred breeding and racing industry, we are confident that this is the right step in the next phase of our re-introduction as a commercial entity within the industry,” Gooree Park Stud Manager Andrew Baddock said in a media release.
Aquis’ CEO Tony Williams said the switch was the right move for the operation.
“Aquis are thrilled to be relocating to the historic Gooree Park Stud in Mudgee. Gooree has a long history with raising outstanding racehorses, when the opportunity presented itself, we all felt it was the right move,” Williams said.
Along with Aquis’ stallions, their NSW-based broodmare band and young stock will also relocate to Gooree Park Stud.
Among the stallions to relocate are Gr1 winner Pierata (Pierro) – pictured, which will be standing his first season at stud, Invader (Snitzel) and the recently retired Bellevue Hill (Pierro).
