Tweenhills host media day for Zoustar

Tweenhills hosted a media day on Thursday for members of the racing and bloodstock press to see Zoustar, as well as our other five stallions for 2019.

Record-breaking sire Zoustar looked absolutely stunning as he paraded, gaining many new admirers in the process. Representatives of the Racing Post, European Bloodstock News, Thoroughbred Daily News, ANZ Bloodstock News, Sky Sports Racing and Racing TV were all in attendance to see the Australian sensation, who stands for £25,000 (Oct 1st SLF) and will cover a select book of 120 mares.

Also on show alongside Zoustar were, of course, world champion Roaring Lion and fellow Gr. 1 winner Lightning Spear, both new to stud in 2019. Charm Spirit, Havana Gold and Hot Streak (first two-year-olds this year) also strutted their stuff.

David Redvers, Qatar Racing Manager and Owner and Manager of Tweenhills, said:

We are hugely honoured to be entrusted with a stallion of Zoustar's profile by his owners as he is one of the most exciting stallions to have come out of Australia in recent years. A record-breaking first-season sire, he has followed this up with an even more impressive set of results with his first three-year-olds and his popularity has been further illustrated by his stunning sales results at the recent Magic Millions.

"At £25,000 Oct 1st SLF he represents outstanding value as his fee looks set to more than double from last season’s AU$66,000 in Australia on his return. He is regarded as a genuine breed-shaper in the Southern Hemisphere. Zoustar offers breeders a remarkable opportunity to use a sensational proven horse at a first-season sire price. It is no surprise that he has been oversubscribed.”
