EXPRESSIONS of interest are being taken to stand Golden Slipper sire and multiple Group 1 winner Rebel Dane. Interested parties have until the end of this month to do so, with some five major farms in the Hunter Valley believed to have him on their radar. International agent Mark Player is handling the process.

A son of California Dane (Danehill), Rebel Dane has covered mares for five seasons when based in Victoria, and from small foal numbers has delivered stunning results. His first crop of 28 foals produced eight individual winners from 13 runners, including the Group 3 winner Subterranean, and the listed-placed Lloyd’s Crown.
