Most champion athletes , whether two or four legged, always look like they are born to run. The harness racing USTA Two Year Old Trotting Colt of the Year Pastor Stephen is no exception.
His handsome good looks , his breeding and his impressive racetrack performances are striking a chord with many astute Breeders of the Trotting gait in Australasia.
The quality of his fresh semen is also impressing the Llowalong Farms owner and Studmaster Dr Kath McIntosh.
āStephen is such an easy horse to have around and to handle in the breeding shed. His semen quality is first class which makes him an ideal horse to ship his chilled semen around Australia and to New Zealand . ā said Kath last week.
Last year there was a limited amount of frozen semen available later in the season to Southern Hemisphere breeders and those mares are now producing the first foals sired by Pastor Stephen outside the confines of Europe.
Earlier this year Stephen covered a Full Book of 140 mares in his debut USA season.
Based on the successful progeny of his full brother Father Patrick in USA , then Pastor Stephen will be perfectly suited to mares of the Muscles Yankee sire line as well as those sired by the Garland Lobell sire line which includes Angus Hall and Majestic Son mares.
All the resulting foals from mares bred to Pastor Stephen this season will be Eligible for the lucrative VicBred Scheme.
With outstanding fertility, Pastor Stephen is your ideal choice for late foaling mares or as a fall-back stallion if your mare is proving difficult to get in foal with frozen semen.
