The decision was made earlier this year to retire Via Sistina following a glittering career that included 12 Group 1 wins, highlighted by her back-to-back Cox Plate victories.

Yulong's chief operating officer Sam Fairgray told Racing HQ on Tuesday morning that Via Sistina is enjoying her time in Newmarket and a few days ago tested positive to being in foal to Dubawi.

"She's at our property at Newmarket in England and she's in foal to Dubawi," Fairgray said.

"It's great news that we heard a couple of days ago that she tested positive, so it's really exciting now to see the first foal out of Via."

"Obviously he (Dubawi) is a champion stallion and physically it's a good mating with Via being a big, robust mare and Dubawi being a smaller, neater and stronger sort of horse.

"So, it worked on paper and physically as well."



".............a few days ago tested positive to being in foal to Dubawi."

Suggests a Sthn. Hemishere foaling to me

It takes a wise man a lifetime to grow a tree and a fool five minutes to kill one.

Considering ahe was retired at the end of 2025 and put into training for a 2026 autumn prep before they pulled the pin, I would think it isnt but I very well could be wrong.

You would have to be an idiot to breed Via Sistina to Southern Hemisphere time.

Considering yulong are an Australian based stud, and im an australian, and she raced her best in australia, very easy to see why id want her to be bred to Southern Hemisphere time.
