Prominent third season sire Jeune has produced an impressive fifteen individual winners since the 1st of May 2002. Jeune’s winning streak featured two, three and four year olds winning from 1200m to 3100m.

In only his third season Jeune has already begun to fulfill the lofty expectations of the late Colin Hayes AM O.B.E. 

Colin Hayes recognised that Jeune’s combination of record-breaking speed and unwavering staying power would make him an ideal stallion prospect. 

Jeune’s racing career improved up until he was six years old which augurs well for the stallions ongoing career as a consistent producer of winners.

Jeune is standing at Lindsay Park again this season for a service fee of only $10,000 plus GST. 

Here are just a few reasons why Jeune is starting to make his mark as a top class stallion.
