Loddon Valley Stud has sold its property at Durham Ox and purchased 40 acres at Lockwood 10kms west of Bendigo. This is an ideal base to operate from in Central Victoria, Australia, close to couriers; to transport fresh chilled semen from the stud efficiently, to all parts of Australia. We welcome clients to ring and make an appointment to come and see our stallions.

We have expanded our Stallion roster with two more exciting stallions, Art Colony a sensational son of Arts Place will serve his first book of mares here this season,and then serve  his first Nth American season in 2011 at one of their leading farms Winbak, and return for our 2011 season here. He was a standout performer in his brief juvenile career, his confirmation, temperament and fertility are excellent. Art Colony’s service fee is $3000 plus GST, LFG and there is a multiple booking discount available.

As well as the sparkling quote from Art Colony’s trainer Casie Coleman (twice Canadian No 1 Trainer)  These quotes from industry leaders in USA. Randy Waples  “I drove Mach Three and Real Desire at two also and Art Colony is easily one of the best two-year-olds I’ve ever driven. He was flawlessly gaited, possessed high ,high speed, and had perfect manners .“And Larry Drysdale Manager Winbak Canada “He’s a beautiful horse..big, athletic and powerful. You’ll want to come to the farm to see this guy” Art Colony’s pedigree is saturated with winners and the bottom line broodmares sires are so successful,   Beach Towel, Cam Fella, Albatross, Bye Bye Byrd and Adios.
