Lyndhurst Stud in Queensland has set the fees for the five stallions that they will stand this spring with Better Than Ready (More Than Ready) heading the roster at $24,200 (inc GST). The son of More Than Ready (Southern Halo) covered 146 mares in 2021 with his fee set advertised as 'On application'.

Better Than Ready now has four crops of racing age and has produced over 170 winners.

"He is an incredible source of speed and frankly he's done it off the back of a $9,900 service fee," Lyndhurst's Jeff Kruger said.

"As a consequence of what his progeny are doing on the track, the quality of mares covered has improved considerably. Watch this space."

Group 3 winner Barbaric (I Am Invincible) will join the Lyndhurst Stud roster and stand for a fee of $8,800 (inc GST).

"Barbaric is an outstanding type as his $900,000 yearling price would obviously suggest," Kruger said.

"Apart from being a Group winning juvenile, he's by arguably the hottest stallion in Australia in I Am Invincible (75 stakes winners) who is rapidly emerging as a sire-of-sires, while the family will have wide appeal, particularly here in Queensland.

"Barbaric's dam, Mimi Lebrock was a Group 2 winner in Victoria and multiple Group 1 placed, but she also won the Magic Millions 2YO Classic, while her half sister, Heavenly Thought won a Group race in Brisbane and finished second in the Group 1 Queensland Derby. We're very excited to be standing Barbaric."

The roster is completed by Rothesay (Fastnet Rock) who will stand for a reduced fee of $4,950 (inc GST) (down from $6,600 a year ago), Hidden Dragon (Danehill) whose fee remains at $3,300 (inc GST) and Champions Gallery (Dansili) will stand again for $1,100 (inc GST).
