2009 filly photo's below are owned by Swift Gallops Ltd, a Singapore based partnership which owns Thano ( by Southern Halo) who stands at Grangewilliam Stud near Wanganui.
Swift Gallops Ltd have developed a broodmare band here in New Zealand under my management with the sole purpose of supporting Thano and retaining his best fillies for future breeding purposes in New Zealand. They intend to race his colts both here in New Zealand and at home in Singapore which will provide a number of options in terms of placement. |
