Luigi Muollo’s Novara Park Stud near Cambridge will stand four stallions this season, spear-headed by exciting young stallion Staphanos at $15,000 + GST.
Luigi Muollo wasn’t able to be trackside at Awapuni to celebrate the victory of Pignan, instead keeping a close watch on his sire Staphanos’ poster girl from afar.
Irishman Joe Doyle claimed the biggest win of his short riding career in New Zealand when he guided Pignan to an upset victory in the Gr.1 Courtesy Ford Manawatu Sires’ Produce Stakes (1400m) at Awapuni.
