GREENVALE PARK OFFERS THE FOLLOWING SERVICES

STANDING AT STUD

Established in 1973, Greenvale Park today is unquestionably ranked as one of Queensland's finest thoroughbred studs.

The complex covers some 200 acres in the heart of the Darling Downs. The Darling Downs is accepted by all breeding experts as being unrivalled in Queensland for its reputation as a thoroughbred nursery. An annual rainfall of around 750mm (30 inches) as well as crystal clear underground water - for both watering stock and irrigation - ensures the well being of the thoroughbred population. Over 100 acres is regularly cultivated for food supplement purposes.

Greenvale Park commenced operations with their foundation sire, Halicas (Habitat ex Lania x Ribot), and he produced numerous winners - the best known being stakeswinners, Crawford and Halison. The magnificently bred Halicas has left a wonderful legacy in the shape of his band of broadmares who produce prolific numbers of winners throughout the State.

Pride of Kellina (Pago Pago ex Babaki X Right Honourable II) holds a special place in the success of Greenvale Park. A son of a Golden Slipper winner, he was foaled in 1980 and commenced stud duties in 1985. He sadly was lost prematurely to the breeding ranks of Queensland in 1996. A Group winner himself, Pride of Kellina produced the Group winner and multiple Group placed Bucks Pride, as well as many other black type winners, and always had a winners-to-runners ratio of over 60%. He produced winners of almost A$5.5 million. It is already apparent that daughters of Pride of Kellina will be both sought after and have the capacity to be top producers.

Greenvale Park today stands three budget priced stallions. CAUGHT COURTING, a black type racetrack earner during his career and a son of champion stallion Danehill and champion race mare Let's Elope heads the stallion roster at Greenvale Park. He is joined by another son of Danehill in the shape of seven times winner PARAMETER - and 14 times racetrack winner WISHART to complete the stallion roster.
