Toronado has done a phenomenal job at stud so far, but it is what’s to come that is most exciting.
In 2023, we will see his best crop to date hit the ground. Big numbers from outstanding mares have Toronado perfectly positioned to be the successor to Champions such as I Am Invincible, Written Tycoon and Snitzel.

Champions I Am Invincible and Snitzel are the only sires at stud to have more 3yo earnings and stakes wins than him this season!
Rubick is a ball of muscle with a terrific nature and asserts himself as a significant source of speed for all breeders.
Lonhro, Danehill, Elusive Quality, Bel Esprit, More Than Ready, Red Ransom…Rubick has enjoyed success with a wide range of pedigrees.

✓ Incredibly Good-looking
Wooded returns as one of the most exciting young sires in Victoria. A powerful Gr.1 winning sprinter, outcross Wooded is physical perfection for the Australian mare pool.
Wooded stands at 16.2hh and presents with more scope and leg than the typical speed sire, an ideal trait to partner with our colonial mares.
If you have a mare with poor fertility, Wooded is the man for the job. He boasts an impeccable breeding record.

Puissance De Lune continues to produce winners, week-in week-out.
A sire with an ability to produce quality middle distance and speed horses, Puissance De Lune boasted a better metropolitan than all top-10 sires last season.
Our grey stallion is perfect for any mare that is looking for a sire with scope and substance.
Puissance De Lune is a serious chance to kick with further success, just like we saw with Rubick – get in now, reap the rewards in the near future.

✓ Huge chance – Average book of over 100 mares
I Am Immortal’s first crop will hit Australian racetracks in 2023. They have already impressed breakers and we will be very surprised if he is the sire of winners before Christmas.
I Am Immortal is another outcross sire, very much in the mould of his Champion sire I Am Invincible. He is a beast of a horse and puts plenty of size and strength into his foals. Neat, speedy mares produce very nice types with him.
