Resident sire D’Argento
Resident sire D’Argento established himself as an elite level performer thanks to a series of highly-rated performances which featured victory in the Group 1 Rosehill Guineas (2000m) during his Classic season. When the curtain came down on his distinguished racing career, his record read four wins and four placings from 14 starts for $1,103,525 in earnings — but that only tells half the story. His most notable Pattern Race performances included 2nd to Hartnell in the Epsom Handicap (G1) over 1600m, and 3rd behind the legendary Winx in the Winx Stakes (G1) over 1400m. He also placed 4th in the Doncaster Handicap (G1) as a 3-year-old.
Produced by a stakes winning daughter of multiple champion sire Redoute’s Choice, D’Argento makes great appeal as one of the very finest sons So You Think (NZ), a hugely successful sire-son of High Chaparral (Ire) from the peerless Sadler’s Wells sireline. Throw into the mix the prodigious influence of his maternal great grandsire Kenmare (Fr), and D’Argento provides breeders with a blend of bloodlines that have met with profound success over numerous decades.
