Success is difficult to measure and different people see success in different ways. However, doing something that leads to a desired result is generally an affirmation that you are doing something right. People who measure this sort of thing find that people doing something that leads to success will most likely continue doing it. But I don’t think you need a research degree to work that out.
What We Do
Genetics, Breeding & Fast Horses!
Stallions
Sandown has been churning out a steady stream of big race contenders, both locally and abroad. James and his family is particularly proud of continuing the Armitage legacy of producing tough, durable horses, starting with two exciting stallions.
Mares
With the vagaries of genetics, breeding horses is something of a dark art. Achieving success once might be considered lucky. Considering consistent success therefore is either the realm of great fantasy, or great skill.
Yearlings
The winning combination! Someone who has had a pretty solid schooling in the science of breeding success, is Sandown Stud’s James Armitage, who has recently become the third generation of the Armitage breeding dynasty to produce a Gr1 winner.
Consistent & Genuine
Resident Stallions
