All costs in relation to the collection, preparation and transportation of the semen must be paid by the mare owner, including veterinary charges, directly to the vet.

The mare owner is responsible for scanning the mare by their vet, and giving the stud no less than 48 hours ’ notice prior to semen being required for inseminating the mare. If less than 48 hours is given, service to the mare that cycle may be refused by the stud.

The mare may be inseminated by AI up to 3 times until a positive pregnancy is achieved. If the mare requires more than 3 inseminations, the mare owner will be charged an additional

$50 per AI collection to cover travel and associated costs. The stallion will not be collected until this fee is paid first.

After the fourth cycle, if the mare has been unable to conceive, a substitute mare may be considered by the Stud. A further fee of $50 per collection will be charged to cover travel and associated costs. The stallion will not be collected until this fee is paid first.

Service fees may be sold on to a third party upon written notification to the stud from the mare owner of the details of the purchaser of the sale of the service fee. For the avoidance of doubt, the new mare owner will be bound by the conditions under this agreement.

A veterinary certificate must be presented to the Stud on a positive pregnancy by ultrasound within 60 days post service before a certificate of service will be provided to the mare owner.

The Stud reserves the right to refuse service to any mare in any reasonable circumstance.

Such circumstances shall include, without limitation, that the mare in the Stud’s absolute opinion: is less than 15.2 hands; is of broken colour; has any congenital defect; is not of satisfactory conformation; is not of sound health; or is not of sound temperament.

There is no live foal guarantee on services.

Notwithstanding any provision in this agreement, the parties expressly agree that no amount paid by the mare owner shall be refundable (nor shall any amount payable be deemed to be waived by the Stud) in any event whatsoever.

The mare owner warrants that the mare is tractable to lead, is fertile and in sound breeding condition, is well handled and is not dangerous or diseased.

The mare owner warrants that he/she is the registered owner or lessee of the mare and has full power and authority to enter into this agreement.

The Stud warrants that it is the registered owner or lessee of the stallion and has full power and authority to enter into this agreement.

Notwithstanding any provision in this agreement, the mare owner agrees that, to the maximum extent permitted by law, the Stud, its owners, servants and agents will not be liable or responsible for any injury, death, costs, claims, loss or damage of any kind whatsoever

(including without limitation by way of negligence, breach of contract, breach of statute or otherwise) that may occur (whether by act or omission) to any person, horse or property, whether at the Stud or elsewhere.

The mare owner shall fully indemnify and hold harmless the Stud against all costs, claims, expenses, loss, damages and proceedings whatsoever arising out of or in any way connected with the subject matter of this agreement, including without limitation any act or omission of the mare owner, the mare or any foal.

If there is more than one mare owner, then the obligations of all mare owners under this agreement shall be joint and several.

For the avoidance of doubt, all of the terms of this agreement apply to any mare brought to the

Stud, including substitute mares. Where the context permits, references to a mare include any foal at foot.

This agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties. This agreement may not be varied unless agreed in writing by all parties. The Stud shall not be deemed to waive any right unless such waiver is expressly made in writing.
