New Zealand’s eight-time champion sire has been a major flagbearer for Waikato with 32 individual Group 1 winners in a decorated stud career that shows no signs of slowing down.

Savabeel heads the Waikato roster at an unchanged fee of $NZ100,000 + GST and studmaster Mark Chittick says the stallion, who has sired 145 New Zealand stakes winners, is in tremendous order as he chases down his own sire Zabeel’s record of 166 black-type winners.
