The Darling Downs\u2019 historic Oaklands Stud is excited to announce former explosive juvenile and electrifying sprinter Prague will stand at their farm from this spring.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The impeccably bred son of Redoute\u2019s Choice was a multiple Group winner at two \u2013 capturing both the Canonbury Stakes at Randwick and the Pago Pago Stakes at Rosehill.<\/p>\n

\"Prague<\/p>\n

At three he spent the season racing against top shelf company and his fourth in the Group One Newmarket Handicap at Flemington, when less than a length and a half from the winner, was outstanding.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In that season he was also beaten a length or less in the Group One All Aged Stakes, Group Two Danehill Stakes and Group Two Arrowfield 3YO Sprint.<\/p>\n

Across his short 12 start career Prague defeated no fewer than 12 individual Group One winners including King\u2019s Legacy, Masked Crusader, Ole Kirk, September Run and Tagaloa.<\/p>\n

As well as his exceptional race record, Prague is a well bred and good looking son of Redoute\u2019s Choice – sire of Snitzel, Not a Single Doubt and The Autumn Sun. A half brother to Group One winner Stratum Star, Prague cost $1.6 million as a yearling at the Gold Coast.<\/p>\n

\"Pembrey<\/p>\n

Prague has just two crops to the track with his current juvenile crop featuring two winners, headlined by Group III ATC Magic Night Stakes winner Pembrey, and two other stakes placegetters including Czech Out, who contests this Saturday\u2019s Group Three Breeders\u2019 Stakes at Morphettville.<\/p>\n

Oaklands Stud secured Prague in\u00a0a deal brokered by Magic Millions Sales Director David Chester and the new connections are thrilled with their acquisition.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are very excited to have Prague in Queensland from this spring,\u201d Oaklands Stud\u2019s Neville Stewart said. \u201cDuring his career he raced against the best with great distinction.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cHis sectionals in a number of big races were often the best in the race. He had a great turn of foot and that was a great appeal for us.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cHis second crop, who are just two, are really performing with distinction around the country. He has three black type performers already and a number of other city horses ready to take the next step.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe think the future for Prague is bright with the likes of Pembrey, Czech Out and Bohemian Rhapsody to fly his flag over the coming seasons,\u201d Stewart added.<\/p>\n

Prague will stand his first Queensland season this spring at a fee of $8,800 (inc GST) with associate sires I Am Unstoppable and Pariah.<\/p>\n

\"I<\/p>\n

A brilliant Group I placed, stakes-winning son of I Am Invincible, I Am Unstoppable was well received in his debut season last spring covering 109 mares.<\/p>\n

His first two dams are stakes-winners by Golden Slipper winning sires Pierro and Flying Spur and third dam Star Satire was a Group I winning, Champion NZ 3YO Sprinting Filly and a blue hen that has left eight winners from eight foals to race leading to an impressive Black Type dynasty.<\/p>\n

I Am Unstoppable offers exceptional quality at his fee of $8,800.<\/p>\n

\"Pariah<\/p>\n

A proven sire of stakes-winners such as $1.2million earner Ostraka, Pariah is a good looking son of legendary sire Redoute\u2019s Choice and runs at 60% winner to runner offering owner breeders a great opportunity for success.<\/p>\n

Pariah remains at a fee of $6,600.<\/p>\n
