Lynward Park Stud in Western Australia, currently home to stallions Alfred Nobel (Ire) (Danehill Dancer {Ire}) and Trade Fair (GB) (Zafonic) have added the recently retired Mahuta (Aus) (Flying Spur {Aus}-Vahine {NZ}), by Zabeel {NZ}) to the roster. The 4-year-old was a prolific winner for trainer Darren Weir and his biggest payday came when he won the Magic Millions Guineas at Gold Coast last year, banking over A$1m in the process. He also proved himself a solid graded stakes performer winning the G2 Sandown Guineas and the G2 Autumn S. at Caulfield before running with great credit when third to Black Heart Bart (Aus) (Blackfriars {Aus}) in the G1 Memsie S. at Caulfield last August. Mahuta, a half brother to stakes winner Anlon (Aus) (Stratum {Aus}), retires with a race record of 16-6-1-2 and earnings of A$1,752,960. A covering fee has yet to be announced.
