The Thompsons have raised champions in the tranquil beauty of the Widden Valley for over 150 years – and as the world’s longest-standing thoroughbred nursery under continuous family ownership, we’re proud custodians of this legacy. Decades of perseverance have gone into not only preserving tradition but elevating it, season after season, champion after champion.
Set across 9,000 acres of pristine country, the Widden Valley is blessed with fertile creek flats and towering sandstone escarpments that have raised some of the greats of racing. It’s a special place and we believe the environment here shapes not just horses, but futures.
While Widden’s story stretches deep into history, it’s the new chapters – the next generation of champions and leaders, the emerging sires and future stars – that excite us most.
At Widden, every foal is raised with a level of care that combines skilled horsemanship with the natural advantages of the Valley. It’s a recipe that continues to produce elite performers, season after season.
The respected JT2 brand has again been carried by some of the current stars in the land, most recently by the Group 1-winning Schwarz, a $1.25 million yearling who became Widden’s latest top-level winner. Our 2YOs have also flown the flag proudly this season with Stakes victories from Bellazaine, Prestige Forever and King Kirk.
Clean Energy, the $2.6 million full sister to our champion Sunlight, is now a Group 3 winner for Yulong and she looks every bit the star her pedigree suggests, with the promise of more to come.
In the sale ring, Widden has enjoyed another year of stand-out results with our select yearlings’ aggregated sales reaching over $31.8 million, including four seven-figure sales across the season.
At Magic Millions, Widden’s Snitzel x Humma Humma became the highest-priced colt selling for $2.8 million, while at Inglis Easter the highest-priced filly went to Zoustar x The Actuary when it was knocked down for $2.6 million. The success at Easter continued as Widden surpassed the milliondollar mark with Zoustar colts from Summer Sham and Lady Lupino.
For us, these aren’t just numbers, they’re confirmation that our investment in elite mares, together with our valued partnerships, are paying dividends both in the ring and on the track and we thank everyone for their support in this most rewarding endeavour.
Success begins in the breeding shed and, once again, our stallions have demonstrated their consistent ability to deliver the results that Widden and our supporters expect.
Zoustar has established himself among the elite with over $155 million in progeny earnings and 10 Group 1 winners. His son, Zousain, is quickly making his mark with this season’s promising 2YO Stakes winning filly, Bellazaine, following Group-winning fillies, Drifting and Amelita, upholding the success of this exceptional dynasty.
This year also represents an exciting new partnership with WinStar Farm in North America that will see record-breaking Group 1-winning sprinter Cogburn shuttling to Australia. Acclaimed as the fastest horse in the world following his 2025 win in the Group 1 Jaipur Stakes at Saratoga on the turf, Cogburn has a unique brand of speed that promises to deliver.
Trapeze Artist has emerged as one of Australia’s top young sires, led by Group 1 winner Griff and this season’s exciting group of 2YOs, including Tupakara, Dream Side and Artistic Venture.
Written By continues to deliver genuine speed with Stakes-winning juveniles The Playwright and Bona Sforza as well as Group 1-placed Buffalo underlining his value as a source of precocious talent.
In the sale ring, we’ve seen pleasing results from the first crop of yearlings by Portland Sky, while Anders is off the mark with four early winners and Jacquinot’s first crop of foals have already made an impression on breeders. Coupled with increasing support for Supido and Rebel Dane, Widden’s roster remains one that delivers, now and into the future.

— Steve Asmussen, Hall of Fame Trainer “
I’VE HAD SOME OF THE FASTEST HORSES IN THE WORLD, SOME OF THE FASTEST HORSES OF ALL TIME, AND HE’S STILL THE FIRST ONE I’VE EVER HAD RUN 5 1/2 FURLONGS IN UNDER A MINUTE.
5
1/2 FURLONGS IN UNDER A MINUTE. THAT’S NOT 5/8’S 5, THAT’S 5 1/2. THAT’S BASICALLY A 16TH OF A MILE FASTER THAN A FAST HORSE.”
IF YOU DON’T LIKE HIM, YOU MIGHT AS WELL GO BUY A BOAT.”
— Luke Lillingston, Lillingston Bloodstock
COGBURN ’s damsire Saintly Look carries His Majesty and close relation Majestic Prince, both tracing to BOUDOIR II. DANEHILL is out of a daughter of His Majesty, sex balancing the son in Cogburn which opens up the highly prolific DANEHILL sire line
Deeper exploitation of his family can be achieved by using mares that carry fellow ASPIDISTRA family member, DR FAGER. He is damsire of FAPPIANO, who has already experienced great success with Not This Time, and the best source of Fappiano in Australia is NORTHERN METEOR and his sons / grandsons.
Machiavellian is also a member of the ALMAHMOUD family and can be sourced via VETTORI and STREET CRY, the latter whose sons include PER INCANTO, PRIDE OF DUBAI, SHOCKING, STREET BOSS and STREET SENSE He is also damsire of ZOFFANY. Notably, Machiavellian is damsire of four-time Group 1 winner Shamardal, who is by Not This Time’s sire Giant’s Causeway, demonstrating that this cross has good precedence.
ENCOSTA DE LAGO has another angle of appeal for Cogburn. He traces to FANFRELUCHE. FLYING SPUR , RUSSIAN REVOLUTION , SPIETH , SNAADEE and HOLY ROMAN EMPEROR are other members that can exploit the presence of Fanfreluche in Cogburn.
Cogburn’s second damsire Stravinsky is a son of Nureyev, making Nureyev’s three-quarter brothers SADLER’S WELLS and FAIRY KING interesting plays. Fairy King is most commonly sourced via ENCOSTA DE LAGO. Mares by his many sire descendants, including DEEP FIELD MANHATTAN RAIN , NEEDS FURTHER , NORTHERN METEOR , RUBICK SHOOTING TO WIN , ZOUSAIN and ZOUSTAR , look very appealing for Cogburn.

THE QUALITY AND QUANTITY OF MARES COVERED BY REBEL DANE HAS IMPROVED DRAMATICALLY IN RECENT SEASONS.
IT’S EXCITING TO SEE WHAT’S IN STORE FOR HIM.” — Louis Mihalyka, Laurel Oak Bloodstock
At Widden, our success has always been built on more than horses. Much of it comes down to the people who help develop them. Our New South Wales team is a group of dedicated horsemen and women whose work ethic, expertise and care set the standard year after year.
Under the long-standing leadership of General Manager, Derek Field, as well as Stud Manager, Ben Walsh, and Farm Manager, Ben Warr, the Widden team combines established experience and emerging talent from across Australia and internationally. Each season, we welcome individuals who not only contribute their hard work but also broaden their bloodstock knowledge during their time at Widden, creating an environment where fresh ideas and new perspectives are developed.
This year, we pay tribute to the contribution and life of David Merrick, who dedicated over three decades to Widden as Stud Manager. A respected horseman and mentor, David played a pivotal role in shaping countless Group 1 winners and the careers of many young industry professionals. His unwavering commitment and quiet leadership will leave a lasting legacy on Widden and the broader thoroughbred industry, with his contribution to be remembered for many years to come. RIP, Unit 5.
The care provided by our New South Wales team is key to producing thoroughbreds that shine, in the sale ring and on the racetrack. From pedigree analysis and mating plans to sales preparation, agistment and bloodstock acquisitions, our nominations team of Matt Comerford and Billy Primmer work side by side with clients to deliver results that matter, with the passion and precision that define Widden.

Our commitment to Victoria grows stronger every year. In 2025 we’re taking it to the next level with the welcome addition of dual Group 1 winner Southport Tycoon to our roster. A brilliant victor at the elite level over 1200m, he represents the kind of fresh, exciting talent breeders are looking for and adds some serious fire power to the Victorian stallion ranks.
Widden Victoria is a fitting home for the son of the immortal Written Tycoon, as it was on this very property 18 years ago that he covered his first mares as a young colt and began his journey to becoming a champion sire.
Up-and-coming sires Dirty Work and Doubtland are both off the mark with their first winners, while Bruckner, a speed machine in his own right, will make his yearling sale debut in 2026.
For those breeding with an eye on European class, we offer Russian Camelot, Camelot’s dual Group 1-winning son, whose first runners will hit their stride as 3YOs this spring and can be expected to make their presence felt, while the first foals of King Colorado, Kingman’s Group 1-winning juvenile, will be eagerly anticipated.
With proven performers like Nicconi and Star Witness continuing to add to their records and Gold Standard poised for an upswing thanks to his large crop of rising 2YOs, Widden Victoria is delivering world-class bloodlines at accessible levels through a roster designed to meet the needs of commercial and owner-breeders alike.
