Here’s the answer to the Frequently Asked Question –

STALLION SHARE

Let’s explore Alpine Edge as the example –

Alpine Edge is broken up or syndicated into forty shares. One share equates to 1/40th (2.5%) ownership in Alpine Edge. In addition, one share entitles the owner, two (2) nominations to Alpine Edge per year for the lifetime of the stallion. A share in Alpine Edge will also give the owner voting rights, dividend entitlements in the net profit of any nominations sold to other breeders.

In summary –

• An ownership share in Alpine Edge
• Two nominations every year for the life of the stallion (free return available)
• Voting rights including input to the Management Committee in setting the service fee
• Share in net profit from sales of services
• Enjoy any capital gains that accrue when Alpine Edge is successful.

HOOFNOTE: Alpine Edge shares are being sold at $15,000 (no GST).

BREEDING RIGHT

A lifetime breeding right to a stallion generally entitles the purchaser a single nomination to the stallion, for the lifetime of the stallion. There is no ownership in the stallion, no voting rights and no dividends or capital gain.

In summary –

• One nomination to the stallion

x No stallion ownership

x No voting rights

x No say where stallion stands or if he shuttles

x No share of profits.

Alpine Edge, the two-year-old Group 3 winning son of Better Than Ready, will stand his first year at stud at $7,700.

His sire, Better Than Ready and grandsire, More Than Ready are loaded with descendants and his dam, Freezethemillions, who is also loaded with descendants, was a talented two-year-old herself.

Alpine Edge carries this line in all four quarters of his pedigree giving him an extremely prepotent genetic makeup, free of Danehill.

The latest Group producer and son of Snitzel, Sooboog, will again stand at $5,500.

Sooboog’s latest Group winner was as recent as last Saturday after Boognish flashed home and collected the Group 3 honours in the Proud Miss Stakes at Morphettville.

This was Sooboog’s second Group winner after Boogie Dancer’s win in the Group 2 MRC Thousand Guineas Prelude.

Worthy Cause rounds out Clear Mountain Fairview’s 2024 stallion roster, standing at a fee of $8,800.

“When the opportunity arose to stand Alpine Edge, we jumped at it because it is rare to stand such an exceptional two-year-old performer,” stated Bob Frappell.

“Alpine Edge is a beautiful looking horse with a superb temperament, so breeders can send mares confident their foals will be similar to their father’s disposition.

“Alpine Edge enables breeders to obtain QTIS eligible progeny that will be ready to hit the ground running as juveniles, just like their sire.

“Alpine Edge represents incredible value at $7,700, a fraction of the service fee of his sire,” Frappell said.

Shares are available in Alpine Edge at $16,500 which includes two nominations per year for the life of the stallion.

Frappell believes Alpine Edge represents true value for money.

The Gr1 Tatt’s Tiara during next year’s Brisbane Winter Carnival is the long-term goal for Wednesday’s Inglis Digital September (Late) sale-topper Boogie Dancer (Sooboog-Search For Fame, by Quest For Fame), who sold for “an incredible’’ $560,000.

Gilgai Farm’s Kelly Skillecorn purchased the Group 2 winner – who was offered by Wylie Dalziel’s Dalziel Bloodstock – for Bi-Lo Bloodstock.

Skillecorn confirmed Boogie Dancer will have the primary goal of securing more Black Type on the track ahead of her breeding career in 2024.

“She’ll go to the paddock for six months now then be set for the Queensland carnival in May and June next year and all going right between now and then, that would culminate in the Tatt’s Tiara,’’ Skillecorn said.

“And then she’s off to Ole Kirk. Ultimately, we bought her for Ole Kirk, a Group 1 win between now and then would just be the perfect finale for her.’’

Skillecorn admitted he had mixed feelings about the purchase, describing Boogie Dancer as “an absolute beauty’’ but “bloody hard to buy’’.

Winner of the Gr2 Thousand Guineas Prelude at Caulfield before finishing fourth in the Gr1 Thousand Guineas, Boogie Dancer is by promising young Snitzel sire-son Sooboog who is standing the 2023 breeding season for $5,500 at Queensland’s Clear Mountain Fairview.
