Pierro Joins The 100 Club

Tara Madgwick - Monday June 10

Pierro has joined The 100 Club over the weekend, while his former racetrack rival All Too Hard now waits on nervous 99.

So You Think cracked his century of winners last week and right behind him has come Pierro, whose oldest progeny are just four year-olds, so to reach the milestone is a great achievement.

It's interesting to think that as they were on the racetrack, again there is little between Pierro and All Too Hard in terms of racking up seasonal winners, although on the score of stakes-winners Pierro has moved ahead of his great rival which explains the difference in service fee.

Pierro stands this spring at Coolmore at $88,000, while All Too Hard stands at Vinery at $27,500.

They both went to stud in 2013, Pierro at $77,000 and All Too Hard at $66,000.
