Sangster, the principal of Swettenham Stud at Nagambie, readily admits that he is genuinely excited with the arrival of I Am Immortal, a son of I Am Invincible.

The new kid on the block, a Listed and Group 3 winner, will be four yea...

Racetrack success is the recurring theme as leading Victorian farm, SWETTENHAM STUD, announces its roster for the 2020 breeding season.

With the lineup enhanced by the arrival of I Am Invincible’s blisteringly quick, I AM IMMORTAL, and another busy season expected for 7-time Group One winner, HIGHLAND REEL (244 mares in first two seasons), Swettenham’s four other ‘book-and-win’ stallions – TORONADO...

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...
