Hazelwood Stables are proud to announce that the handsome and extremely well related stallion Red Element will be standing at the Beechmont property from this spring.
Situated on 60 acres of undulating hills just 45 minutes from the Gold Coast
and 75 minutes from Brisbane, Hazelwood was established and designed with the
well being of the thoroughbred foremost in mind.
Run by highly respected horseman Beau Skerrett, Hazelwood boasts outstanding
facilities and offers a variety of services including agistment, breaking in
and education, rehabilitation, pre-training and equine bowen therapy.
"We are excited to have Red Element join us here at Hazelwood
Stables," Skerrett said.
"We are very pleased with the type of horse he has - he has conformation,
movement and genetics on his side and also has a great nature which for us is
very important."
The winner of five of his 17 starts, Red Element raced in strong company and
was successful in Listed company on two occasions over 1100m and 1200m... and
he was close up at Gr.1 level when beaten three lengths in Nicconi's Galaxy,
four lengths in Swiss Ace's Oakleigh Plate and just 1 1/2 lengths in Typhoon
Zed's Manikato Stakes.
Red Element's sire Red Ransom, son of the influential Epsom Derby winner
Roberto, has been well represented by 109 stakes winners, 16 of whom have been
successful at the elite level including Australian Horse Of The Year Typhoon
Tracy... Red Element's full sister.
Red Element's dam is the four times Gr.1 winning Last Tycoon (broodmare
sire of 151 stakes winners; 28 Group One winners) mare Tracy's Element - a
highly successful broodmare whose nine winners include Typhoon Tracy (six times
Group One winner) and the stakes placed Kylikwong. She is also ancestress of
the stakes winners Cantonese, Red Bomber and Shaft.
Tracy's Element is one of seven winners produced by the dual Gr.3 winner
Princess Tracy, also dam of Stradbroke Handicap winner Danasinga (successful
sire of 33 stakes winners) and the Group winners Cullen (sire of three stakes
winners including Group One winner Joy And Fun from limited opportunities) and
Towkay (sire of 13 stakes winners including four Group One winners).
Her other descendants include the Group One gallopers Master Of Design and
Suntangonal - as well as fellow stakes winners Assail, Traces, Happy Morning,
Fatal Attraction, Awaken, Raffles Pegasus, En Lauder, Prince Of War, Perana and
Prince Arthur.
Red Element is a descendant of the influential matriarch Woodbine whose others
include the prolific stallions Storm Cat, Royal Academy, Be My Guest, Fusaichi
Pegasus and Hennessy.
Red Element's oldest progeny are six and he has been represented by 118 winners
from 201 runners; a strike rate of 58.7%. Two of his progeny have been stakes
placed whilst another 16 have won at metropolitan level... mainly
sprinter/milers.
