CONDUIT (IRE) POA

Tullyraine House Stud has successfully bred National Hunt horses in Co. Down for over 30 years and will stand

Conduit for 2016. Tullyraine has a history of standing stallions with classic middle-distance form and have stood successful stallions such as Insan and Winged Love in the past. An American Champion Racehorse and twice European Champion Racehorse, Conduit’s race record is outstanding, though possibly his victory on soft ground in the St. Leger may be the best indicator for future National Hunt

success. He is exceptionally well-balanced in both conformation and movement. He is a straight mover with textbook-perfect limbs. He is the very model of a modern National Hunt racehorse.

Yeomanstown and Morristown Lattin Studs, Naas, Co. Kildare, are set in 600 acres of lush Kildare pasture land on the

banks of the River Liffey. The well maintained and sheltered paddocks are bordered by mature fields and hedges. Gay O’Callaghan has established a tradition of purchasing fast, precocious racehorses who have gone on to make successful sires. The stallion division opened as a public stud in 1989, and its flagship stallion was Common Grounds, one of Europe’s most prolific sires of two-year-olds. Yeomanstown

Stud now has a crop of exciting stallions made up of Gutaifan, Dark Angel, and Camacho, all of whom were top class two-year-olds and should continue to sire top class, fast and precocious stock that have the looks to match. New for 2016 is record-breaking two-year-old Gutaifan pictured above winning Prix Robert Papin.
