Too Darn Hot – Literally!

Tara Madgwick - Friday January 2

When Darley announced Too Darn Hot (GB) would return to Australia last spring at a fee of $275,000, it was a fee that demanded a serious mare for a serious stallion and according to Australian Studbook 108 mares took up the challenge, so who are they?

Too Darn Hot (GB) covered the cream in 2025.

Many of Australia’s best breeders have sent mares to the champion son of Dubawi and the Godolphin owned mares are in the minority, so expect see plenty of Too Darn Hot yearlings at our elite sales in 2029.
