ALABAR STALLIONS
Super sire Art Major
We've spent over sixty years creating a reputable name for ourselves and are dedicated to upholding it for generations to come. We breed horses and race them too, so we understand the level of expertise, care and dedication required to produce a winner. We are here to support you throughout every stage of the process, and we're always just a phone call away if you have questions or concerns.
A tradition of excellence
Welcome It's been another terrific year and looking back, I feel an immense sense of pride as I reflect on the success of Alabar and our stallions. When you're involved in an operation like ours, it's impossible not to be wholeheartedly invested, so the support of our clients and hardworking team is something we appreciate greatly. Ensuring that breeders receive maximum value is a primary focus of ours. This approach has very much been the driving force behind moving virtually all of our stallions to our Victorian farm this season. The relocation of our New Zealand-based stallions will benefit breeders by simplifying the semen ordering and distribution process and provide lucrative access to dual New Zealand Sires' Stakes and VicBred eligibility. Over the past 12 months, the success of our stallions reached new heights. We witnessed the inevitable coming of age of Always B Miki as he graduated into a proven international sire. He completed a clean sweep of the leading First Season Sire premierships in the USA, Australia and New Zealand and claimed the title of Leading US 3YO Sire - an incredible feat considering it was achieved with his sole crop of three-year-olds. Following in the same vein as his barn mate, we couldn't be happier with the accomplishments of Vincent's first crop progeny. He has already sired multiple Group performers, including Vinke B and Wish Me Luck who quinellaed the Gr.2 Sapling Stakes. He's looking every bit the heir apparent to his sire Art Major, and we can't wait to watch his career unfold.
Captain Crunch also reached a new milestone in his career when his first crop of weanlings sold for up to $55,000, subsequently topping the NZB National Weanling Sale. We all remain in awe of our Champion Sires Art Major and Majestic Son. It's a real honour to share in the success of the avid breeders, owners and trainers who have supported them so heavily, and both stallions are certainly showing no signs of slowing down just yet. We're thrilled to introduce Zenith Stride to our stallion roster this year. By breed-shaping sire Muscle Hill, he was a high-priced yearling and precocious two-year-old that will suit our broodmare pool in Australia and New Zealand perfectly. As the season approaches, there is a huge sense of excitement here at Alabar as we await the highly anticipated first foals by Elite Stride, Bettor's Wish, Ride High and Ultimate Sniper. Our commitment to breeding and racing in Australia and New Zealand has never been greater, and we look forward to sharing another year of success with you all.

LAZARUS Unparalleled Undoubtedly one of the greatest racehorses of all time, Lazarus is a true-blue champion. A top performer in both hemispheres, Lazarus won 15 Group 1 races on his way to being crowned Australian Horse of the Year and New Zealand Horse of the Year (twice). His first crop northern hemisphere progeny have suitably followed in their sire's footsteps, with his two-year-old son Voukefalas capturing the $240,000 New Jersey Sires Stakes final in 1:50. From just nine yearlings sold at the New Zealand Bloodstock sales, Lazarus has produced a $220,000 sale-topping colt in Auckland, while in Christchurch, his six yearlings averaged an outstanding $55,250.

A four-time Group 1 winner, Vincent smashed multiple track records and won an astounding 16 races from 19 career starts. He retired to stud as the fastest three-year-old in Australasia ever, and now, his first crop two-year-olds are setting the standard. With much fewer starters than his older rivals, he sits in the third spot on the New Zealand 2YO Sires premiership (prizemoney). His progeny have been popular in the sale ring, selling for up to $215,000 - setting a new record for a freshman sire.
