For Rich Hill Stud’s Proisir it has been a modern day rags-to-riches story. A stallion who stood at an introductory fee of NZ$7000 plus GST, he has risen to stand a career-high NZ$70,000 plus GST and has attracted attention of the super power Godolphin Australia. TDN AusNZ caught up with Rich Hill Studs’ John Thompson and Godolphin Australia’s Vin Cox to discuss the emergence of Proisir.
