Carry On Alice Set for High Stakes Date

Carry On Alice has arrived in Australia after she was exported from South Africa for stud as a multiple Grade 1 winner.

She is at the legendary Arrowfield Stud and is booked to the stud's very own champion sire Snitzel.

Eight months through the 2017/18 season, reigning Champion Sire Snitzel is out on his own at the head of the Australian General Sires' premiership, and has already smashed his own season earnings record - by almost $6 million. 

The son of Redoute's Choice has notched up 24 winners of 37 Australian Group & Listed Races in 2017/18 - that's an average of a stakes win every week and only three stakeswinners short of a new season record.  

Snitzel's four Group 1 winners this season showcase his progeny's diversity as well as their sensational class: speed machines 5YO Redzel and 4YO Russian Revolution, powerhouse 3YO colt Trapeze Artist and brilliant Golden Slipper winner Estijaab.

Carry On Alice is a multiple Graded Stakes winner including the SA Nursery, SA Fillies Sprint twice, Computaform Sprint and Cape Flying Championship at the highest level. She is one for the most accomplished mares to have been exported from South Africa. 

She is a valuable asset to the Australian breeding ranks and a close eye on her progress will be kept on her.
