New Zealand based Group One producing sire Danroad has been sold
to the Inner Mongolia Rider Horse Group.
"He has been a great source of winners," Highview Stud's Brent Gillovic said.
"He has been getting virtually zero patronage over the last three seasons so at
least he'll serve some mares up there."
Danroad's best performer has been the Gr.1 TJ Smith Classic winner Rockdale
while his son Down The Road was a Gr.2 Championship Stakes winner and ran
second in the Gr.1 NZ Derby.
"In the mid-eighties these types of stallions would have covered good books of
mares. Often his type would be the first horse with a full book with mares
coming from people who bred to race. Sadly that is but a distant memory now,"
Gillovic said. - NZ Racing Desk
