News - HENRY LONGFELLOW (IRE)
So many Australian studs are now invested in the Dubawi sireline and it was running hot overnight in Europe with Dubawi sire sons producing four stakes-winners including new juvenile stakes-winners for Too Darn Hot (GB) and Ghaiyyath (IRE).
Rosemont Stud in Victoria was the last of the big farms to welcome visitors to their open day and as Anthony Mithen said, being at Geelong it does take a bit of effort for guests to attend, but those that did were well rewarded.
The Dubawi sireline has been embraced by Australian breeders with no fewer than seven of his G1 winning sons standing in Australia this spring and one of the stars of that group is Ghaiyyath (IRE), who sired two new stakes-winners overnight.
Rosemont Stud is delighted to announce our annual Stallion Parade & Open Day will be held on Friday, August 28th (11am-2pm).
Dubawi stallions are all the rage in Australia with no fewer than six of them standing at commercial studs in NSW and Victoria, but one elite stallion by the legendary Darley sire has elected to race on at five and Notable Speech landed the Group I Lockinge Stakes (1m) overnight at Newbury.
In 2025 we introduced a new era in our journey of standing stallions here at our beautiful Gnarwarre base with the introduction of two elite prospects for the Australian market: Schwarz (Zoustar) & Henry Longfellow (Dubawi).
Group I winning Dubawi stallion Henry Longfellow (IRE) is covering his first Australian book of mares at Rosemont Stud this spring and overnight in Ireland his two year-old sister-in-blood landed her first Group race win.
It takes a bit of effort to get to Rosemont Stud near Geelong which is a solid hike from the main studs within easy reach of the Nagambie area in Victoria, but with superstar young guns Schwarz and Henry Longfellow (IRE) on the roster, Mitho and his team were always going to be a must visit!
With 11 new stallions standing in Victoria this coming breeding season, including the winners of three Group 1 races on their ‘home’ soil, the short and long-term future looks increasingly bright for the state’s vibrant industry.
Joining Too Darn Hot as the only other G1 winning 2yo by Dubawi to ever stand in Australia - Rosemont Stud are thrilled to announce the brilliant, supremely bred Group I winning 2yo HENRY LONGFELLOW (IRE) who will stand at their Geelong base in 2025 in partnership with Coolmore.
