Leading Sire McArdle just keeps getting winners worldwide and it’s no surprise that Hickory Farms announced today they will be increasing his northern hemisphere fee from the $5,000 USD he stood for last season to $6,000 USD for the coming 2017 season.
Aussie breeders must be feeling like they have won the lottery as McArdle stands here for only $2500
This has been a massive boost for our breeding industry to have champion sire like this standing at less than 50% of their NA fee.
With a Progeny list like below
What’s really interesting is that, McArdle looks like he will be a very strong broodmare sire, with Boston Red Rocks a 3yo colt by Rocknroll Hanover out of the McArdle Mare, McGibson, has now won close to $1,000,000 USD already .
I can’t see how his fee can possibly stay this low in AUS and reports that Alphastud.com.au has almost a full book for 2017/2018 and this unfortunately will be his last season at stud in Australia.
With the added value of him being breeders challenge eligible, breeders from every state can now cash in on big bonus’s
For any breeder looking for a world class sire at the value that can’t be matched anywhere in the world a call to Alphastud, would be a smart move too lock down the last semen available for this World Champion Sire.
Of the other leading sires in NA, they will in the 2017 season stand for
Somebeachsomewhere $20,000 USD
Bettors Delight $15,000 USD
American Ideal $10,000 USD
Art Major $9,500 USD
