Darley’s Medaglia D’Oro (USA) has had a big service fee increase in the wake of siring Golden Slipper winner Vancouver and mares in foal to the son of El Prado who stands for $110,000 this year have become a hot commodity.
Rheinwood Pastoral will offer one of only three mares covered by Medaglia D’Oro at the 2015 Inglis Australian Broodmare Sale offering Lot 887 as agent for Jacob Park Thoroughbreds in the supplementary section, La Fluorescent.
Medaglia D’Oro
