One of the most exciting sprinters of his time, Gr2 Australian Stakes winner & Gr1 William Reid runner-up Thronum will stand at Maiton Ag in Mangoplah, NSW. Thronum (Snitzel-Helena’s Secret, by Five Star Day) has a tremendous pedigree, being closely related to leading sires Shamardal (166 stakes winners) and Street Cry (134 stakes winners). Excitingly, Thronum is already off to an exciting start at stud with 14 first crop winners from just 23 runners. Thronum is the sire of triple Metropolitan 2YO winner and Listed ATC Brian Crowley runner-up Thron Bone (subsequently sold to Hong Kong and renamed Invincible Sage), 3YO Caulfield winner Cute As, as well as 4-time winner Original Glaze (contested Gr1 Qld Oaks), 3-time winner Gulf Of Lion and four other dual winners. “The opportunity to stand a stallion of Thronum’s quality was too good to pass up. Thronum gives breeders access to a stallion with a proper pedigree, an elite racing profile and impressive progeny performance,” Maiton Ag proprietor, Paul Cocking enthused. “There’s already been a lot of talk about him and that’s before he has even been officially announced.” Thronum is a paid-up BOBS stallion and will stand for an advertised fee of $3,300 inc GST, with live foal terms, while discounts will be available for payment upon a 45-day positive pregnancy.
