Rockridge Stud’s Trinniberg participating in “Breed Secure”

Saturday, March 8th, 2014

image001Rockridge Stud has announced that their stallion Trinniberg (Teuflesberg – Bella Dorato by Goldminers Gold) will be participating in the “Breed Secure” program (as offered by Spendthrift Farm in KY). For a non-refundable fee of $150, breeders can sign a contract where the first funds of the sale of the foal at auction would come back to them, and the Syndicate would collect their fee secondarily.

“We just felt that this program would be a great way for the Syndicate to show breeders that we believe in the stallion,” says Rockridge’s Lere Visagie. He continues, “At times when you have an exceptionally proven individual with conformation flaws, it’s difficult for commercial breeders to take the risk. We’re eliminating that risk.”

Rockridge also offers Spendthrift’s namesake “Share the Upside” program for their other first-year stallion, San Pablo.

For more information, contact Lere Visagie at (518) 821-7086 or Erin Robinson at (859) 421-7531.
