Preferred Equine Marketing, in conjunction with Southwind Farms, has announced it will be the exclusive agent for the frozen semen of world champion Varenne in 2008.
Varenne 1:51.1-1:51.3f, who turned in one of the most memorable Breeders Crown victories in recent memory, retired as the richest Standardbred of all time with $5.6 million, surpassing the great Moni Maker.
As a sire he is off to a great start, having sired multiple Group I winners in Europe and recent Breeders Crown champion Southwind Serena. Varenne stood his first five seasons at Allevamento Il Grifone, Italy and this year will stand at the renowned Menhammar Stuteri in Sweden. The stud fee for Varenne, a son of the Speedy Somolli stallion Waikiki Beach, will be $15,000 (US) for a live foal. His offspring will be eligible to the Breeders Crown. Varenne's book in Italy and Sweden is already full and closed at a fee of 15,000 euros ($22,000 US).
For booking contracts and further information, please call Geoffrey Stein at 914-773-7777 or email at geoffstein@preferredequine.com. (Preferred Equine Marketing)
