Description

Stunning stallion DANDINO (GB) needs no introduction for Australian racegoers. He arrived in Australia with a highly impressive international record, having raced successfully in England, USA and Canada and with a Group 2 (Newmarket Jockey Club Stakes), a Group 3 (Kempton September Stakes) and a Listed win (Arlington Park American St. Leger Stakes) as well as a Group 1 second (Woodbine Canadian International Stakes) and a further eight Group and Listed placings before he landed on Australian soil.

He adapted beautifully to Australian conditions, running second in the Caulfield Cup (beaten 1.25 lengths by FAWKNER) at this first start here as a Spring Carnival visitor in 2013. After a suspensory ligament injury, Dandino came back to stay in September 2015. After a couple of meritorious runs in the Group 1 Underwood (beaten 2.85 lengths) and the Group 1 Turnbull Stakes (beaten 0.95 length) and running second in the Group 3 Geelong Cup, Dandino went out on a high note by winning the Group 3 Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Flemington in November.

In his career, Dandino has raced against some of the world's most successful middle distance performers and his globetrotting success is testament to his professionalism and toughness. A recurrence of his suspensory injury has forced the decision to retire him from racing. Dandino is offered as a superb breeding prospect.

A winner from 1800m to 2700m, Dandino is an outstanding type standing 16hh, has a wonderful temperament and possesses a desirable pedigree.

His progeny are versatile and hardy, winning from 2yo up to 7yo and from 1000m to 2600m. He has had 23 winners, including metropolitan winners Dunalley, Adandiman, Shezadandi, Inexorable as well as Savvy Dan, Quamby, Capino, Five Ounce, Barrington Manor, Buff in Disguise, Night Eruption, Shine and Dandy, Zoe Mae, Chocolate Royal, Daalimit, Dandino Belle, Mandino, Dan's Echo, Dante's Peak, Bold as a Button, Dancin' Dude, Moto Moto, etc.
