BALLYHANE Stud has proven itself to be top-notch for providing commercial breeders with choice and value, and Joe and Jane Foley’s farm this year welcomes a sprinting star who has exceptional good looks, and a pedigree that is faultless.

The loss of Dandy Man was a sad end to 2023 for Ballyhane, a year that saw the first crop of Soldier’s Call enjoy a magnificent season. That son of Showcasing (Oasis Dream) was also lost to Ballyhane, moving to stand this year at Dullingham Park, but Joe Foley struck to secure the services of another of his sons, and introduces Asymmetric at an opening fee of €7,000.
