Wadham Park released the following press release this month:-
Econsul (NZ) to stand at Woodside Park Stud for the 2007 Breeding SeasonIt was announced earlier this year that Woodside Park, the breeding division of Wadham Park Australia, had acquired Econsul (NZ), the Group One winning son of Pins, for stallion duties this year. Econsul (NZ) will be the foundation stallion for the multi million dollar Woodside Park which is currently being developed approximately one kilometre from Wadham Park’s Victorian training base at Tylden.
Bloodlines
Econsul (NZ) is from the multiple winning, Group One performed Centaine mare Gypsy Soul (NZ). Centaine is proving an increasingly influential broodmare sire with over fifty stakes winners to his credit, including 10 at Group One level. Some of these include Glamour Puss, Legs, Amalfi, Demerger, Tully Thunder, Sportsman and Cent Home.The second dam of Econsul (NZ) is Sky Runner, a metropolitan winning mare who is a half sister to the multiple Group One and Caulfield Guineas winner Beechcraft. Econsul (NZ) is one of an ever growing number of Group winners by the Snippets’ stallion and VRC Cadbury Guineas (G1) winner Pins. He is best known in Australasia as the sire of El Segundo (C.F. Orr Stakes G1, Yalumba Stakes G1, Underwood Stakes G1), Legs (Kelt Capital Stakes G1, NZ Oaks G1) and the promising Porotene Gem (Levin Classic G1).Pins’ service fee for the 2007 breeding season has been increased from NZ$25,000 to NZ$50,000. Econsul (NZ) will be the first son of Pins to stand at stud which provides an exciting opportunity for Australian breeders to access this bloodline.
The Racehorse
Econsul (NZ) was a winner of three races including the “Sire Making” Group One Caulfield Guineas. With recent winners of the calibre of Lonhro, God's Own, Show a Heart and Redoute's Choice it is easy to see why the Caulfield Guineas is quickly becoming the sire making race of Australasia. Along with his Group One Caulfield Guineas win, Econsul (NZ) was also a stakes winning two year old.
Woodside Park principal Dale Sutton stated, “Econsul (NZ) was selected to be the foundation sire of Woodside Park ahead of other potential candidates because of his impressive bloodlines, conformation and race track performances”.The striking Econsul (NZ) (16HH) is presently being syndicated and has already received support from some of Australia’s most influential breeders including Lindsay Park Stud.Sutton stated, “Econsul (NZ) had proven his mettle as a racehorse. He won the Group One Caulfield Guineas over 1600m, was a stakes winner at two, proven on Australian racetracks, showed amazing acceleration, was a sprinter/miler and possesses a terrific colonial pedigree which is completely free of Northern Dancer”.
The Stallion
Sutton believes Econsul (NZ) will provide the ideal cross for most broodmares, particularly daughters of Rory’s Jester and mares from the Northern Dancer line.“His genetic structure is close to perfect. He is sired by possibly the most promising sire standing at stud at the moment in Pins and is from a daughter of the champion broodmare sire Centaine”, Sutton said.”He was a good two-year-old and is an excellent type with great strength through his shoulder, a beautiful head and eye, and he has the ideal temperament for a stallion”.“Econsul has two things in abundance – quality as an individual and speed and that’s what attracts good returns in the sale ring”. “The fact that he was a stakes winning two-year-old who trained on to win a classic three year old Group One lays claims to his significant ability and potential as a sire”.
Econsul will stand for a service fee of $10,000 plus GST this breeding season.
