DANE SHADOW

Dane Shadow’s meteoric rise through the first season sire ranks has been one of the talking points of the 2008-2009 season thus far. Competing against top draw company of the likes of Fastnet Rock, Charge Forward and Al Maher, Dane Shadow has more than held his own and at a fraction of the price.

Dane Shadow has shown an ability to improve and upgrade his mares and gets you an outstanding type. This is reflected in his impressive yearling sale returns with his progeny averaging $57,000 off a $7,700 service fee and selling up to $280,000. A truly fantastic result. There are only a handful of stallions in the country that can say that they have averaged over 7 times service fee.

His flawless conformation and good looks combined with pedigree, and performance make Dane Shadow a huge chance to be a significant stud success.

Dane Shadow progeny have hit the ground running and from a limited book he has already produced Group 1 placed milers as well as sprinters Hurtle Myrtle and Shellscrape. In 2009 Dane Shadow served his first book of competitive numbers and outstanding quality at that, hence if he has been able to do what he has to date with limited books, the consequences of the 2009 crop are set to be significant.

With over fifty percent of his first crop either raced or trialled it is plain to see that the Dane Shadows are natural racehorses.

Dane Shadow’s 2010 book is filling fast…don’t miss out on your opportunity to breed to a potential star of the future.
