Tara Madgwick - Monday Jul 31

Star Witness has sired 100 winners from 235 runners that have won 164 races earning $5.9million and include two stakes-winners Fast Witness and Stellar Vista.

Star Witness got his first century of winners in the 2017/2018 season and has kept up the good work ever since to the great delight of his supporters producing 100 winners every year, that’s a lot of very happy winning owners!

Throughout his career, Star Witness has never stood for more than $33,000 so has always been very affordable and reliable, two important qualities that you can’t say about too many stallions.
