Overview

History: Since its acquisition in 1980, Aston House Stud operated for many years as an owner-breeder operation before transitioning to commercial breeding. Foaled and raised at the stud, horses racing in the owners' own colours included the Doncaster Cup winners Buckley and Boreas, 1000 Guineas-placed Crystal Gazing, and Melbourne Cup runner-up Bauer, while graduates sold to race for others include the pattern winners Khalidi, Rodaballo, Safety In Numbers, Takfa Yahmed, and Lady Claypoole, a Grade 3 winner in 2025. The stud also bred Flowing Tide, dam of Grand National winner Bindaree, alongside other successful performers across multiple racing jurisdictions. Throughout these decades, the Stud maintained horses in training with Luca Cumani for over thirty years, reflecting the enduring professional relationships and unwavering commitment to excellence that have defined Aston House—a proven breeding establishment now offered to continue its tradition under new ownership.

This property has 50.34 acres of land.
