Arrowfield – Your Best Bet for Juvenile Speed

This year’s premier 2YO race in Victoria – the G1 Arrowfield Stud Blue Diamond Stakes – was dominated by Arrowfield stallions who were responsible for the winning trifecta – STAR WITNESS (Starcraft), SHAAHEQ (Redoute’s Choice) and BENETEAU (Redoute’s Choice). This follows previous year’s results with Arrowfield responsible for the 2005 winner (UNDOUBTEDLY – by Redoute’s Choice), 2006 (NADEEM by Redoute’s Choice; 2nd MISS FINLAND by Redoute’s Choice), 2007 (SLEEK CHASSIS by Flying Spur), 2008 (REAAN by Hussonet (USA)).
