Aussie breeders eyeing Danewin

THE Hong Kong-owned three-year-old Danewin is quickly becoming one of Australian racing's most valuable stallion prospects.

In fact, Danewin has already attracted the attention of the publicly-owned Arrowfield Group, which runs one of the nation's most successful breeding operations.

'We haven't made any move on Danewin as yet,' says Arrowfield's promotions manager James Bester.

'But it won't be surprising at all, if we end up with him at Arrowfield.

'He seems to be just about the best son of Danehill around at present and we are friendly with his senior part-owner Sunny Yam.

'In fact, we sold the horse to Sunny as a yearling.' That was at the Sales of the Sanctuary at Sanctuary Cove on Queensland's Gold Coast in January, 1993.
