Arrowfield Stud was established in 1985 under the visionary and innovative leadership of John Messara.
In 1989 Arrowfield made one of the single most important purchases in Australian bloodstock history when it selected and secured a majority interest in Danehill, who proved to be a global breed-shaping influence, and the sire of 89 Group 1 winners – more than any other stallion in history.
After relocating in 1996 to the stud’s present location near Scone, Arrowfield enjoyed success with the outstanding sire Snippets before launching the careers of three champion sire sons of Danehill: Danzero, Flying Spur (retired from stud duties in 2012) and the exceptional champion sire, sale-ring sensation and sire of sires Redoute’s Choice. Snitzel is Australia's top sire, while Not A Single Doubt is a top five sire - both are sons of Redoute's Choice.
Group 1 winners added to Arrowfield's honour roll since 1 August 2014 are Heavenly Blue, Hot Snitzel, Majmu, Mustaaqeem, Rafeef, Secret Agenda, Stay With Me, Stepitup, Sweet Idea, Wandjina & Whisky Baron (all bred solely or in partnership by Arrowfield); sale graduates Abbey Marie, Contentment, Howard Be Thy Name & Invader; and the Teeley Assets home-breds Lankan Rupee & Miracles of Life, both foaled & raised at Arrowfield.
Forty-three Arrowfield yearlings have sold for $1 million or more at auction since 2001, most recently seven lots at the 2017 Inglis Easter Sale, headed by the sale-topping $2.5 million Redoute's Choice-Secluded colt. He joins Musket ($2.5 million, G2 winner), Master of Design ($2.1 million, G1 winner) and Estee ($2.1 million, stakeswinner & Group 1-placed) as the four most expensive Arrowfield yearlings sold at auction.
Arrowfield topped the vendor lists by aggregate at the 2016 & 2017 Magic Millions Gold Coast Sales and the 2015, 2016 & 2017 Inglis Easter Sales, and in 2017 achieved total yearling sales of more than $35 million.
Arrowfield also enjoys its share of racetrack success. The Stud's famous Black & Yellow Diamonds with Yellow Cap have been carried by the likes of champion Australian 2YO & champion 3YO filly Miss Finland, her Group 1-winning daughter Stay With Me, Group 1 winner Alverta, Group-winning colts Beneteau, Panzer Division, Scissor Kick & Spill The Beans and, in 2017, by the Group-winning juvenile filly Teaspoon. In addition, Charge Forward, Snitzel, All American, Animal Kingdom & Dundeel all won Group 1 races after their purchase for stud duties by Arrowfield.
