PEBBLE BEACH

At Alabar, we take immense pride in our dedication to the industry, our support of breeders and the celebration of our clients' extraordinary achievements.

We truly believe that we have the best clients in the world and their unwavering passion and commitment drive us to excel in everything we do.

The longevity and sustainability of breeders and our industry have been pivotal in our decision to make our stallions even more accessible this season. We recognise that without breeders, our business would not exist; we are here for you just as you are here for us.

We get such a thrill from celebrating the successes of our clients and have witnessed some outstanding achievements over the past 12 months.

As we look ahead, we are excited to follow the paths of our emerging young sires and witness the accomplishments of their progeny over the next 12 months.

We are thrilled to welcome Tactical Approach to Alabar this season. He is the first US Trotter of the Year to shuttle to the Southern Hemisphere

and comes equipped with an impressive resume, being the first horse since Muscle Hill to win the Hambletonian, Kentucky Futurity and Breeders Crown in the same season.

Reflecting on the past year, we are immensely proud of our stallions, who continue to excel at every level. Majestic Son achieved another remarkable clean sweep of the Trotting Sire titles and Art Major was crowned the Leading New Zealand 2YO and 3YO Sire.

Always B Miki continues to go from strength to strength, siring more millionaires and Group 1 winners, and fellow shuttle stallion Captain Crunch was the Leading First Season Sire in the US.

Both Lazarus and Rock N Roll Heaven sired Group 1 winners, while Vincent and Ultimate Machete made serious waves, siring multiple stakes horses. Last season, The Storm Inside served his largest book to date and his first crop has made an impressive debut.

2023 freshman sire Pebble Beach was in high demand, recording full books and the first yearlings by Ride High, Elite Stride and Ultimate Sniper went to market this year and were met with incredible industry support.

As we move forward, we remain committed to supporting breeders, celebrating their successes and striving for excellence in all aspects of the industry.

We thank you for your support and look forward to a future filled with more brilliant achievements and continued success.
