JOHN and Clodagh McStay have placed their 68-acre Oaklawn Stud up for auction with a guide price of €1.5 million.

The property was originally the property of the O’Mahony family and the house was developed over 100 years ago. Trainers who formerly trained from the property included ‘Ginger’ Wellesley, Richard Annesley and Pat O’Leary.

The stud farm was developed by the late Michael McStay and has been owned and successfully managed since the late 1980s by his daughter-in-law, Clodagh, and Michael’s son John, a former Turf Club senior steward, who added adjacent lands. Notable winners from the farm include Covert Love (Irish Oaks), Endless Time, Military Mission, Tiger Cliff and Captain Ramius.
