Shamus Award Honoured
Our exciting young sire Shamus Award was honoured overnight at the Australian Horse of the Year Awards ceremony in Melbourne where he was crowned Champion 3YO.
As a brilliant winner of the Group I MVRC Cox Plate and VRC Australian Guineas, Shamus Award proved himself the best in the land and we are proud to guide him through the next part of his career at stud.
Bred by Bob Hannon of Ascot Park at Pitt Town NSW, Shamus Award was the most expensive colt sold in Session II of the 2012 Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale when selling for $230,000 from the draft of Vinery Stud.
He was trained with great success by Danny O’Brien and raced by long-time friends Sean Buckley and Viv Oldfield.
Shamus Award is covering a stellar book of mares at a fee of $27,500.
