Jakkalberry’s fertility is top notch

Jakkalberry has commenced his first season at stud with outstanding fertility results.

On scanning his first ten mares, nine were found to be in foal and he has continued with this these outstanding results as more mares have been scanned.

Henk Smit of Paxton Park has labelled the results as ‘incredible’ and by far the best stallion fertility ever achieved by a sire standing at Paxton Park.

The high fertility gives breeders great confidence of knowing they have a greater chance of getting their mares in foal early, and likewise resulting in early foaling dates.

Further Jakkalberry’s high fertility will help reduce veterinary bills which can add up when a mare misses to a stallion.

Kerrin Mcevoy - Jockey

Says of Sweynesse :

"He’s been pleasing us at home but we were worried about the ground and also he was meeting a good field first-up, I had to ride him a bit steady from the gate but he was electric when I asked him to go."
"He’s a nice, big colt with a lovely relaxed attitude and a very good turn of foot."

James Mcdonald - Jockey

Says of Sweynesse :

"He was awesome. We got back in a slowly run race so his (sectional) splits
would have been amazing."

Hideaki Fujiwara - Champion Trainer Japan

Says of Staphanos :

“Staphanos had outstanding ability showing speed and stamina. He was mentally and physically tough. I expect his progeny to be the same!”

Michael Cox - Former South China Morning Post and now The Age racing writer saw Staphanos in the flesh on the track and in his impressive morning workouts

Says of Staphanos :

"Staphanos is a horse of substance, mixing toughness and a no-nonsense temperament in a career in which he raced and beat some of the best Japan had to offer. What a coup by Luigi Muollo and Novara Park to secure this stallion and what an incredible opportunity for New Zealand breeders to send mares to such a highly credentialed son of Deep Impact. He has the looks, pedigree and racetrack performances to be a hit at stud. He could be a real game changer and just the type of stallion New Zealand needs."
