CADDINGTON! Another Kia Ora-bred stakes winner, and this one was particularly special 💗

Leased to the National Breast Cancer Foundation, the Liam Howley-trained daughter of Captivant and War Heroine delivered a memorable victory in the Listed William Crockett Stakes for a wonderful cause.

A huge congratulations to all involved on such a special result.

We're proud to sponsor tomorrow's Group 2 Kia Ora Stud Mile at Flemington, on a day that could see Kia Ora-bred and part-owned Warwoven make history as the first horse to complete the Golden Rose, Caulfield Guineas and Cox Plate treble.

We wish all connections the very best of luck!

Kia Ora's commitment to investing in the world's finest bloodlines extended to the purchase of White Lavender (IRE) at Tattersalls in 2023.

A winner of the G3 Prix de Saint-Georges and runner-up in the G1 Prix de l’Abbaye de Longchamp, White Lavender has produced an outstanding c**t by Farnan this season, with a yearling filly by Zoustar also in the paddock.

Prior to Saturday, The Autumn Sun and Ole Kirk were the only stallions to complete the G1 Golden Rose Stakes–G1 Caulfield Guineas double since the former achieved G1 status in '09, and given the records both are carving at stud, the future is looking particularly bright for new double scorer Warwoven.

From the foaling paddocks at Kia Ora to a G1 Caulfield Guineas & Golden Rose star.

Kia Ora-bred Warwoven. What a story.

He's a FREAK!

Kia Ora-bred WARWOVEN makes it back-to-back Group 1 wins with a dominant victory in the stallion-making Group 1 Caulfield Guineas.

The Bjorn Baker-trained c**t by Sword of State out of Group 2 winner Needle and Thread now has four Group wins to his name.

A massive congratulations to his ownership group. We're thrilled to be part of such an incredible success story.
