A son of the world's leading sire Camluck and out of a Canadian Broodmare of the Year in Town Sweetheart, Northern Luck is undoubtedly one of the best bred and best performed horses to be imported to Australia in recent years.
He was a top racehorse in his own right, winning more than $900,000 in two seasons of racing at 2 and 3 and took a record of 1:49.2 as a three-year-old.
Northern Luck has matched his greatness as a racehorse in the siring field. He is consistently ranked among the leading sires in North America, was the leading first-season sire in Western Australia and most importantly has shown the ability to sire both colts and fillies to win at the very top level. He is also an extremely fertile stallion.
From a N.Z. crop of eight live foals he is the sire of five winners, an impressive 62.5% winners-to-foals!
