Dynamic Syndications on Sunday 9-10-16 hosted a private tour to Australia’s leading thoroughbred nursery
COOLMORE STUD at Jerry’s Plains.
It was a wonderful day and gave our Team the opportunity to
mix socially with our clients in a relaxed atmosphere at one of the truly
“Wow Factor” properties in the Southern Hemisphere.
Under glorious sunny skies and warm weather,
120+ of our owners joined us on the day.
Coaches left the middle of the CBD at 7:00am as we headed up the highway.
After two brief stops along the way, we arrived Coolmore at 10:20 am where we had more of our owners who had driven up by themselves, waiting at the property to greet us.
As soon as we arrived we went straight to the magnificent stallion parade area where our team was treated to a private parade of the
Coolmore Stud big gun sires – All Champions.
So You Think parades to Dynamic Owners
First to greet us was three-time Gr1 winner
Excelebration, who was followed by
Pierro, Vancouver, So You Think and we concluded with Australia’s
Champion Sire FASTNET ROCK.
Fastnet Rock parades to Dynamic Owners
It was a terrific day to be there to see
FASTNET ROCK because on Friday evening in England, this mighty sire
recorded his 100th Stakes Winner.
The stallions were in magnificent order considering they are working hard at the moment covering 4 mares per day.
After the parade, we were treated to
excellent Coolmore hospitality as we had a break to enjoy a cup of tea

and the
home-baked muffins Fiona had made, as we mingled in the glorious gardens all in the shadow of the statue of
Champion sire Encosta De Lago.
We then were ushered back onto the coaches as we were taken on
a guided tour of the 9,000 acre Coolmore Stud property.

Here we went past the various areas of the farm including foaling nursery, on-site veterinary hospital, magnificent broodmare paddocks full of quality mares and their foals, stallion boxes and paddocks, breeding shed, yearling preparation boxes, along with the staff village and workshop area.
We concluded the guided tour at 12:15 pm with
a group photo in front of the statue of the legendary champion sire DANEHILL.

It was now 12:30 and back into the coaches and cars, we headed to the magnificent
Hollydene Estate Winery for lunch.

Party time at the Winery
Magnificent wines were made available to us along with gourmet food offered in their wonderful cellar room which was the perfect size to host a luncheon for the amount of guests we had with us.
As anticipated, after an early start, warm weather, fine wines and food to finish, it was always going to be a quite trip back to Sydney on the coaches as many took advantage to enjoy a short nap.
The day was a fantastic opportunity for our owners to meet and mingle, socialising with like-minded racehorse enthusiasts.
On behalf of the Dynamic Syndications Team, we offer a heart-felt
“Thank You” to the team at Coolmore Stud led by Sebastian Hutch, Paddy Oman and Sam White and those that helped behind the scenes who made our day so enjoyable and informative.
We would also like to thank the team at
Hollydene Estate Winery who put on excellent fare in wonderful surroundings.
Big Thank You to our Dynamic Team of Owners
Most importantly, I would like to than those owners in Team Dynamic who joined us on the day and made the experience a lot of fun filled with laughter and enjoyment.
