The month of March has been a good one for Swettenham Stud’s Toronado (IRE), who has had 13 winners including some very smart three year-olds in Hypercane, Master Montaro, Laverrod, Beehunter, Fender and I’m on Break.

Hypercane made it two wins and two placings from four starts when saluting at Morphettville on Saturday, while Master Montaro was a super impressive debut winner at Pakenham last Fr...

Breeders who supported Swettenham Stud’s Toronado (IRE) in his third year are reaping some enormous rewards as the stallion’s progeny continue to exert themselves on the racetrack.

Swettenham Stud principal Adam Sangster said there had been a huge return on investment for those breeders who had gone to Toronado in that often risky third year of a stallion.

The results were again proven at the Inglis...

Toronado brought plenty of festive cheer to Swettenham Stud after the stunning looking stallion produced four winners in a 24 hour blitz.

The rapid sequence of wins - two at Caulfield on Tuesday, December 18 and then another two the following day at Warrnambool  - further enhanced the stallion’s ever growing reputation and popularity with breeders and trainers as he continues to rack up victories....

Swettenham Stud, Adam Sangster and the entire team are thrilled to announce that the former highly successful brand, Collingrove, will re-launch into the bloodstock marketplace this March at the Inglis Premier Yearling Sales at Oaklands with Daniel Brash at the helm.

“It is with great pleasure to announce that as part of Swettenham’s Stud’s future plans, we are delighted, with the blessing of the H...

It’s a question young Ballarat trainer Mitch Freedman says he gets all the time.

But for the record, he is no relation to the powerful Freedman brothers, led by Melbourne Cup winning trainer Lee Freedman who now trains in Singapore.

For Mitch Freedman, he is making a name for himself in his right and hopes it will be highlighted even more during the Spring Carnival when two runners from Swettenham S...

Linda Huddy had good reason to believe her multiple Group producing mare Pentamerous had come to the end of her foaling days.

Without a foal since 2013 and with plenty of misses and tears along the way, Linda’s hopes of the mare experiencing a trouble-free pregnancy and having another colt or filly were quickly fading.

After producing Shoot Out, which Linda and her husband Graham purchased at the 20...

The Bred to Win team visited Swettenham Stud to check out Sioux Nation, Highland Reel and Akeed Mofeed.

Swettenham Stud’s strategy to travel abroad, attend the sales, and find a nice tried filly, with the right pedigree to race with success is a difficult proposition for the most awarded bloodstock agent.

However, thanks to some very clever and determined buying, an eye for a smart pedigree, and a lifetime of knowledge, Adam Sangster believed that a blue-blooded Deep Impact filly, Love So Deep, was t...

Puissance De Lune is off and running with his first winner after an impressive debut performance by Moonlight Maid at Geelong over 1240 meters for Ballarat based trainer Mitchell Freeman.

In a highly competitive race, up against some well-spruiked fancies, a heavy 10 track and an awkward barrier, Moonlight Maid was able to overcome these challenges for breeders and owners John Sutcliffe and Gerry R...

Matt Laurie and Paul Dugan's decision to take a punt on the progeny of first-season sire Toronado (Ire) has paid spectacular dividends, with the yearling they picked out for $145,000 at last year's Melbourne Premier Sale, Prince of Sussex, winning the inaugural $1m Ladbrokes Showdown at Caulfield.

Prince of Sussex had already shown his potential with his big win in the $250,000 VOBIS Gold Rush at B...
