$1 Million Breeders’ Bonus
We are delighted to have launched the Patinack $1 Million Breeders’ Bonus – a scheme that will see $1 million in bonuses divided between the breeders and owners of metropolitan winners sired by Patinack Farm’s stallions*.
This bonus emphasises the lengths to which Patinack Farm will support our stallions and our clients. Our plan is to do everything possible for our clients to ensure them the best return, and the bonus applies not only for commercial breeders, but also for those who breed to race.
The Breeders’ Bonus also includes supporting our stallions with the best of our high-quality band of broodmares; by a commitment to purchase the best progeny of our sires at the yearling sales; and our unique live foal guarantee.
An annual pool of $1,000,000 will be distributed 50/50 to both the breeder and the owner/s of metropolitan race winners (does not include Group races) sired by a Patinack stallion*.
*Not applicable to Beautiful Crown (USA) and applicable to two and three-year-olds.
