INTRODUCTION
Welcome At Waikato Stud, our aim is to achieve excellence and I feel we have accomplished nothing short of that with the recent success of our stallions and the numbers of high-quality Stakes-winning home-breds. I consider it a great privilege to be at the helm of Waikato Stud through the completion of the first 50 years of history, a period in which Waikato Stud has been instrumental in shaping the NZ breeding industry. The pressure is now on to reach even greater heights in the years ahead and, since taking over full ownership of the Stud in 2017, I’m very pleased to report that the momentum of Waikato Stud’s success during the past year has continued with the same consistency as at any time in history. Not only did our WS-breds in the form of Savvy Coup, Hasahalo and Embellish win three of the four major Group One Classics for three-yearolds, highlighted with the Guineas double at Riccarton, but Savabeel has been a colossus for the Stud with a tremendous season that has seen his Group One tally skyrocket to 17. Savabeel has sired 6 Group One winners in the past season alone and he has surpassed his own sire Zabeel for the number of Stakes winners sired at the same stage in their careers. We are all in awe of Savabeel’s achievements as he heads towards his fourth NZ Sires’ Premiership. We are so proud of Ocean Park’s successes as he leads the NZ based sires’ on the Australian Second Season Sires’ List and it was exciting to see a number of Stakes performers emerge from Rock ‘n’ Pop’s oldest crop as they reach maturity. It also came as no surprise
to see Sacred Falls’ first yearlings so well received in the sale ring, resulting in him being the Leading First Season Sire at Karaka. At the same time, we were also very saddened by the loss of our great sire and contributor to the Stud’s success, Pins, who passed away this past autumn. Pins was a favourite and he gained international recognition during his 14 seasons at Waikato Stud from which he sired many high-class performers including El Segundo, Aerovelocity, Ambitious Dragon, Katie Lee, Legs, Econsul, Porotene Gem and A Touch of Ruby. Earlier this year, our great home-bred sire O’Reilly ticked off another Stud milestone with his induction into the NZ Racing Hall Of Fame and he also posthumously sired one of the most dominant Group One winners of the year in Grunt who won the Australian Guineas. In the sale ring, yearlings by all of our sires sold exceptionally well and our highlight was offering the first crop of yearlings by Sacred Falls which sold for up to $300,000. Our standout was of course Savabeel who was Leading Sire at Karaka for the fourth consecutive year and deservedly sold his first $1 million yearling. Waikato Stud were leading vendor at Karaka for the fifth consecutive year and we were also thrilled to sell our new highest priced yearling ever with the Savabeel ex Posy filly fetching $875,000.
INTRODUCTION
I also wish to acknowledge all of Waikato Stud’s supporters and friends who sent mares to our stallions, purchased yearlings at the sales, and those who enjoy racing the great WS product. Without your loyal support, Waikato Stud could not operate at the level it does. And that high level of excellence which we pride ourselves on is only possible by having a very dedicated and hard-working team that works tirelessly with a passion all year round. As the new season approaches, we eagerly look forward to the first foals of Group One All Aged Stakes winner Tivaci, the first runners of Sacred Falls which don’t look like they will take too long to get up and running, a continuance of the outstanding beginning to Ocean Park’s stud career who has already exceeded Savabeel’s record at the same stage, and another high-quality crop of performers by our champion sire Savabeel. Good luck and best wishes to everyone involved, we hope you have as much fun as we do!

Record breaking sale for Waikato Stud The Savabeel ex Posy filly smashed Waikato Stud’s record yearling price when her popularity commanded a price of $875,000 at the 2018 Karaka yearling sale. Purchased by leading Bloodstock Agent Dean Hawthorne, she is from one of Waikato Stud’s most distinguished families and her pedigree page features multiple Group One winning champion three-year-old Daffodil.
Savabeel crowned Champion Sire - again Going from strength to strength with a succession of new Group horses in the 2017-18 season, Savabeel has claimed his fourth straight New Zealand Sires’ Premiership win, his third consecutive Dewar Award (combined Australian and New Zealand progeny earnings) and third Centaine Award (combined progeny earnings worldwide).

2018 Karaka sale topping Savabeel colt from history making Pins mare Katie Lee was knocked down to Te Akau boss David Ellis for $1,025,000. Across all Australasian yearling sales in 2018, there were six yearlings by Savabeel which sold for $500,000 or more and he was the leading NZ based sire on average for the fourth consecutive year at Karaka.

Sacred Falls was the Leading First Season Sire at Karaka In addition to being the Leading First Season Sire at the 2017 Karaka Weanling Sale, Sacred Falls also claimed the Leading First Season Sire title at the 2018 Karaka Yearling Sale. Across all Australasian yearling sales, Sacred Falls’ 55 individual lots sold for an average price of $111,086 and sold for up to $300,000, with six lots fetching more than $200,000.
O’REILLY
POSTHUMOUS HONOURS FOR OUR CHAMPION SIRE O’REILLY
For a fifth consecutive year, Waikato Stud reigned supreme at Karaka, claiming their fifth consecutive title as leading vendor. Offering what is believed to be the largest consignment of yearlings in the world under the same ownership in a single session, Waikato Stud offered 79 yearlings and sold 71 at an average price of $181,478 for an overall aggregate of $12.9 million. Waikato Stud stallions also contributed to a staggering 28% of the entire sale turnover at Karaka – more than twice that of any other NZ Stud.
Legendary sire O’Reilly was inducted into the NZ Racing Hall of Fame in 2018, an honour of the highest merit to acknowledge his outstanding contribution to NZ breeding and racing. To date, O’Reilly has sired 17 individual Group One winners, including last year’s dominant Gr.1 Australian Guineas winner Grunt, and his daughters have produced 14 Group One winners.
Savabeel took his Group 1 tally to 17 Adding an astounding five new Group One winners to his producing record in the 2017-18 season, Savabeel has become one of only three sires in history to have produced two different horses to win both the Gr.1 NZ 1000 and Gr.1 2000 Guineas in the same season. Group One winners sired by Savabeel during 2017-18 season include Waikato Stud home-bred three-year-olds Hasahalo, Embellish and Savvy Coup who won three of the four major NZ Group One Classic races when registering wins in the Gr.1 1000 Guineas, Gr.1 2000 Guineas and Gr.1 Oaks. Shillelagh was victorious in the Gr.1 Kennedy Mile at Flemington, Sword of Osman won one of the country’s most prestigious Group One races for two-year-old’s when taking out the Gr.1 ARC Diamond Stakes and super star sprinter/miler Kawi added a seventh Group One to his resume when taking out the Gr.1 Captain Cook Stakes.

OCEAN PARK / THE SIRE ON FIRE In the 2017-18 season, Ocean Park was the leading NZ based Australian Second Season Sire and when sire performance between Ocean Park and champion Waikato Stud sire Savabeel is compared at the same stage in their careers, Ocean Park has sired more winners from less runners and has sired the same number of black-type horses. In 2017, he sired his first Stakes winner when Ocean Jewel was victorious in the Listed WATC Placid Ark Stakes and he has sired numerous Stakes performers including; Another Dollar - second in the QLD Oaks Gr.1, The Roses Gr.2 and Listed Gold Coast Bracelet, Mongolianconqueror - second in both the NZ Derby Gr.1 and Waikato Guineas Gr.2, Pretty to Sea - second in the ATC Adrian Knox Stakes Gr.3, Ocean’s Fourteen - second in the Listed Geelong Classic and Dancer’s Kin - third in the Listed SAJC Queen Adelaide Stakes.

From $775,000 yearling to Group 1 winner Eye-catching Savabeel colt Embellish lived up to his price tag when winning the esteemed Gr.1 NZ 2000 Guineas in the spring of 2017. Purchased by top judge David Ellis for $775,000 for leading NZ syndication company Te Akau Racing, Embellish held the record for the highest priced yearling to be sold by Waikato Stud until earlier this year.

Waikato Stud bred the NZ Guineas double Out of Waikato Stud’s 2016 Karaka yearling draft emerged champion three-yearold’s Hasahalo and Embellish – winners of the 2017 Gr.1 1000 and 2000 Guineas double at Riccarton. The beautifully bred youngsters share several similarities; both are by Savabeel and were purchased by New Zealand based syndication companies. Hasahalo was a $110,000 buy for Go Racing and Embellish was a $775,000 purchase by David Ellis for Te Akau Racing.

SAVABEEL
Overview
Savabeel has proved himself to be one of the most versatile stallions in Australasia with Group One winners at two years over 1200 metres, three years over 1600 - 2400 metres and older horses who have been successful at the highest level over a variety of distances. Sword of Osman, Embellish, Hasahalo, Savvy Coup, Shillelagh and Kawi achieved those feats respectively in the 2017-18 season to take Savabeel’s number of Group One winners to 17. Savabeel has notched up a total of 74 Stakes winners to date and recent success includes siring the New Zealand Group One Guineas double with Embellish and Hasahalo and his daughter Savvy Coup won the Group One New Zealand Oaks, resulting in Savabeel siring the winners of three of the four main New Zealand Group One Classic races. In the 2017-18 season, Savabeel sired 15 individual Stakes winners including Group One winners Savvy Coup, Hasahalo, Embellish, Sword of Osman, Shillelagh and Kawi as well as Group winners Coldplay, Splurge,
12
Savapinski, Addictive Nature, Royal Success and Clarify plus Listed winners Grazia, Santa Catarina and Savaheat. Savabeel’s class as a racehorse was evident when he defeated nine Group One winners in taking out the 2004 W.S. Cox Plate and that level of achievement has followed through to both the yearling sales ring and progeny record on the racecourse. His success shows he is the heir apparent to his own Champion Sire Zabeel who in turn was the heir apparent to Sir Tristram before him. And like his sire and grandsire, his progeny display the toughness and durability to win over all distances, at all ages from two years to eight years and, incredibly, Savabeel has passed Zabeel for the number of Stakes winners sired at the same stage of their careers. With recent successes, Savabeel is now achieving a Stakes winners-to-runners ratio above 10 per cent and has thus become only the second sire currently standing in Australasia to reach that level of excellence. Savabeel also boasts an enviable winners-from-
runners ratio that exceeds 70 per cent. For the fourth consecutive year, Savabeel was crowned Leading New Zealand based sire at the Karaka Yearling Sale and the 2018 Australasian sales series have seen 82 Savabeel yearlings sell for an average of $259,766 with 80 bringing $100,000 or more – testimony to the type and correctness and an acknowledgement of the progeny success. Leading buyers have paid up to $1,025,000 to secure yearlings by Savabeel and the demand to purchase his older progeny at the Hong Kong International Sale has also been strong with his three-year-olds selling for up to $770,000. Similarly, his daughters have been highly sought after with Nurse Kitchen and Soriano fetching $1.7 million and $1.15 million respectively at last year’s Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale.

Overview
Ocean Park’s endless stream of winners and Stakes performers have earned him the prestigious accolade of being the leading New Zealand based Australian Second Season Sire and he is the first New Zealand stallion to achieve a top five placing on this premiership over an eightyear period. When sire performance between Ocean Park and champion Waikato Stud sire Savabeel is compared at the same stage in their careers, Ocean Park has sired more winners from less runners and has sired the same number of black-type horses. Notable winners include Listed WATC Placid Ark Stakes winner Ocean Jewel and other Stakes performers include Another Dollar - second in the QLD Oaks Gr.1, The Roses Gr.2 and Listed Gold Coast Bracelet, Mongolianconqueror - second in the NZ Derby Gr.1 and Waikato
18
Guineas Gr.2, Pretty to Sea - second in the ATC Adrian Knox Stakes Gr.3, Ocean’s Fourteen - second in the Listed Geelong Classic and Dancer’s Kin - third in the Listed SAJC Queen Adelaide Stakes. Ocean Park performed at the very highest level and in completing the Underwood Stakes-Caulfield StakesCox Plate treble as a four-year-old he emulated the performances only champions Ajax, Bonecrusher, Almaarad, Northerly and So You Think had achieved in the previous 80 years of Australian racing. Such was the quality of his racing career that Ocean Park was successful on five occasions at Group One level - winning the Hawke’s Bay Makfi Challenge Stakes Gr.1 at four years prior to his famous Australian treble and ARC Lindauer New Zealand Stakes Gr.1 at his penultimate career start.
As a mid-season three-year-old Ocean Park won the Wellington Stakes Gr.3 before his first Australian preparation produced a close second in the Rosehill Guineas, Gr.1. Ocean Park finished his career in the autumn of his four-year-old season with eight wins and $2.8 million in stake earnings. Now the son of Thorn Park and Broodmare of the Year Sayyida, by Zabeel, from O’Reilly’s family, is transmitting his superior ability to his progeny which saw his third crop of yearlings highly sought-after. Across all Australasian sales in 2018, there were 48 yearlings by Ocean Park sold for an average price of $86,358. Nine of these sold for more than $150,000 and the top priced lot fetched $280,000.

TIVACI
Overview
The ‘coup d’état’ by Waikato Stud on the Australian Breeding Industry in 2017 undoubtedly came in securing High Chaparral’s Group One winning son Tivaci prior to his magnificent win in the All Aged Stakes Gr.1 at Royal Randwick. Before his iconic win in the Group One All Aged Stakes, the son of the highly successful High Chaparral already had the physical attributes to suggest the four-year-old would develop into a magnificent stallion, with a pedigree to match being out of the twice winning Fastnet Rock mare Breccia, herself a daughter of the Perth Cup Gr.2 winning mare Luna Tudor by Military Plume, by Sir Tristram. The time-honoured All Aged Stakes Gr.1 added the third component to the
30
stallion criteria by beating Australia’s best sprinters/milers which included English, Le Romain, Divine Prophet and Redkirk Warrior in the Group One 1400 metre event at Royal Randwick. The ‘coup d’état’ was complete as Tivaci was already secured by Waikato Stud for the New Zealand breeding industry and retired henceforth. Tivaci has now let-down into a magnificent stallion, standing over 16.1 hands and showing more muscle and strength than his own sire High Chaparral who prematurely died when aged only 15 years. On the racecourse the Aidan O’Brien trained High Chaparral was nothing short of world-class, winning two Breeders’ Cups and the English and Irish Derbys, an Irish Champion Stakes
and a third in the Prix de I’Arc de Triomphe. He has sired well over 100 Stakes winners including 22 that have won at Group One level. Tivaci displayed a greater turn of foot than any of High Chaparral’s Group One winners, finishing with six wins between 1000 metres and 1600 metres. He won three times at Group level and also won the Listed Kensington Stakes in which he ran his last 600 metres in 32.1s. Tivaci’s first foals will be born in the 2018-19 season.

ROCK ‘N’ POP
Overview
Rock ‘n’ Pop’s sire Fastnet Rock has not only proved himself a Champion Sire with superior runners of all ages over all distances but his influence as a sire of sires is now adding greatly to his legacy. The strength of Rock ‘n’ Pop’s maternal pedigree with its stamina component is now showing with runners such as The Mayor who finished a close-up and unlucky fourth in the New Zealand Derby Gr.1 of 2018. The Sunline Vase Gr.3 runnerup and Oaks runner Gold Spice also now numbers among Rock ‘n’ Pop’s three Stakes performers and winners in four different countries. The influence of Sir Tristram through Rock ‘n’ Pop’s New Zealand Derby Gr.1 winning dam Popsy is a factor.
36
The multiple Group winning New Zealand Filly of the Year Popsy won six times from 1600 metres to 2400 metres. Stamina is further derived through Rock ‘n’ Pop’s second dam, Beks, a Stakes winner of 10 races up to 2500 metres, by staying sire In The Purple. Rock ‘n’ Pop’s three-quarter sister Lilakyn won the Listed Feilding Gold Cup over 2400 metres and finished second in the Brisbane Cup Gr.1. Rock ‘n’ Pop’s ability to sire progeny who can produce a turn of foot is consummate of his own brilliance; his final 600m in 33.24s in the New Zealand 2000 Guineas Gr.1 win is an inherent trait from his own sire Fastnet Rock who was champion three-yearold colt of Australia, and in the same
year was crowned Champion Sprinter of Australia in 2004-05. Rock ‘n’ Pop offers a balance of speed and stamina and with his progeny now reaching racing maturity, the ingredients are all in place for an exciting future. In the sale ring, yearlings and twoyear-olds by Rock ‘n’ Pop have been highly sought after by international buyers. At the 2017 Karaka Ready to Run sale, two-year-olds by Rock ‘n’ Pop sold for up to $110,000 and in 2018, his Book One yearlings sold for up to $90,000 and averaged $41,250 – more than 4.5 times his service fee.

THE WAIKATO STUD STORY
The Waikato Stud Story After 50 years of consolidation; building the broodmare band, stallion roster and nurturing the land, Waikato Stud is now amongst the world’s leading producers of Group One performers. The synergy of bloodstock, environment and personnel are the three vital components or stars that have aligned, not by accident, but by design. We are proud to say that careful planning coupled with judicious selection and a hardworking team has given us today’s mantle of ‘leading stud.’ Waikato Stud was founded in 1967 when billionaire oilman Nelson Bunker Hunt from Texas purchased the then Matamata dairy farm which comprised of 188 hectares. Bunker Hunt had prior to that time been very successful in purchasing New Zealand-bred fillies which he had taken home to the USA for racing and breeding.
42
Decies’ presence at Waikato Stud was significant. He was highly successful and sired Dulcify in his first crop. Other early stallions such as Pompeii Court achieved a great degree of success and the Stud has never been without a good stallion.
Starcraft triumphed in two Group One events in Europe which earned him the title of World Champion Older Turf Miler. His Waikato Stud owned dam Flying Floozie won three consecutive ‘New Zealand Broodmare of the Year’ titles.
But it was Garry who took Waikato Stud to a new level with judicious stallion selection and broodmare retention. Today, many of the Stud’s 220 broodmares trace back to the best families that were bred, raced and retained from the family’s original Thornton Park Stud at Longburn.
Over many years, Waikato Stud has averaged 12 Stakes winners a year and from the first year the Stud has bred 38 individual Group One winners of 74 Group One races. For the past five Karaka Yearling Sales, Waikato Stud has topped the aggregate and earned the title of leading vendor (2014 to 2018).
The term ‘shuttle stallion’ wasn’t even invented at that time but Bunker Hunt who at one time owned over 1000 horses was a man ahead of his time and he imported Waikato Stud’s and Australasia’s first ever shuttle-stallion in Prétendre – a son of Doutelle who came within a neck of winning the 1966 English Derby.
Garry knew the value of the land both in terms of acreage and its quality. He carried out a large portion of the expansion and today Waikato Stud enjoys one of the best-appointed facilities in the world on thoroughbred-rearing land of exceptional quality. Today the property in size is 688 hectares and is indisputably the number one producer of Group One winners in New Zealand and is also one of the best internationally.
Waikato Stud’s early stallion roster after Prétendre included Decies, My Friend Paul, Brigand, Magnesia, Barcas, Ace Of Aces and Zephyr Bay. Then came Pompeii Court and Dahar in the public company era prior to the arrival of Garry and Mary Chittick in 1993 who brought with them one of the great stallion successes in Centaine. Later came Danasinga, O’Reilly, Pins, No Excuse Needed and Fast ‘n’ Famous prior to the current line-up.
In the first decade of the new millennium, Waikato Stud was recognised as the leading Australasian breeder of Group One winners. In 2008-09 alone the Stud produced six individual Group One winners of nine Group One events throughout Australasia. A couple of years earlier in 2006 the Stud created history when it became the first New Zealand Stud to breed a Group One winner in Europe.
Of Waikato Stud’s 21 Group Oneproducing stallions, eight have been awarded champion sire status. These stallions include: Decies, Pompeii Court, Dahar, Centaine, O’Reilly, Pins, Savabeel and No Excuse Needed. Stud patriarch Garry Chittick has twice been honoured with a Racing Excellence and Outstanding Contribution Award in 2006 which ten years later was followed by his induction into the New Zealand Racing Hall of Fame. Waikato Stud has enjoyed a wonderful first 50 years, and the start of the second 50 also looks extremely bright with Mark Chittick now at the helm and a further generation of Chitticks following closely in his footsteps.
Of Waikato Stud’s 21 Group One-producing stallions, eight have been awarded champion sire status.

A tribute to Pins 1996 - 2018
The sudden death of Pins on Sunday, 29th April, 2018 was a sad day for both the Stud and the entire breeding industry, but the loss is tempered in the knowledge his contribution to this industry has been nothing short of magnificent. Pins came to Waikato Stud in the year 2000, stood for 18 seasons, had sired 709 individual winners of 2,370 races at the time of his death, was twice the recipient of the Centaine Award, was twice Champion Sire of Hong Kong and sired champion Group One winners El Segundo, Aerovelocity, Ambitious Dragon, Katie Lee, Legs, Econsul, Porotene Gem and A Touch of Ruby. On two occasions Pins won the Centaine Award for the leading New Zealand sire based on global progeny earnings, and his record of Stakes winners-to-runners placed him in the top seven stallions of Australasia – an impressive effort given the sires ahead of him all stand for many times Pins’ final 2017 service fee. The legacy left by Pins will live long in the annals of New Zealand racing and breeding for not only has he proved himself a prolific sire of winners but he is now becoming increasingly successful with his daughters throwing numerous top class performers. No one has felt the death of Pins more deeply than Waikato Stud principal Mark Chittick who was at Flemington in March 2000 to witness Pins’ greatest success in the Group One Australian Guineas. That day he made up his mind the stallion
career of Pins would be best served at Waikato Stud – subsequently Mark negotiated his purchase for $1.5 million and then syndicated him.
the Karaka Sales of 2018 where in Book One his yearlings sold for up to $420,000 at an average of more than $130,000.
“He has been a massive part of the growth we have experienced here at Waikato Stud and he has also been a big part of my growth personally,” lamented Mark. “He was such a great character and had an incredible personality, but always knew how to keep you on your toes.”
“Pins was an incredible stallion and his versatility as a sire has always amazed me,” said Mark in the week following Pins’ death. “To be able to leave one of the world’s best sprinters in Aerovelocity, have Cup winners and winners aged two to eight is just incredible.”
Pins was a resounding success from his first season when he stood for $9,000, eventually reaching a fee of $50,000 at the height of his career. But when he arrived he was firstly in the shadow of the all-conquering Centaine and afterwards Hall of Fame inductee O’Reilly who dominated his era to such a large degree, and finally at the time of his demise, the current champion sire Savabeel.
“Pins provided people with so much joy, from people who have had the pleasure of working with him through to breeders and those who have raced his progeny.” Pins, who was rising 22 years of age, has been buried alongside fellow Waikato Stud champions O’Reilly, Centaine and Pompeii Court, under the trees adjacent to the stallion barn.
Amid the career of those three iconic names Pins might have been considered the quiet achiever yet his record says quite clearly that he is one of the greatest sires of all time in New Zealand. On Stakes winners alone he is the fourth most successful sire ever to stand stud in New Zealand behind Zabeel, Sir Tristram and O’Reilly. The respect Pins established internationally was again evident at
