Always B Miki sitting out 2025 Southern Hemisphere season

Alabar, Nevele R Stud, and Diamond Creek Farm regret to announce that Always B Miki will not be shuttling to Australia for the upcoming 2025 breeding season.

Due to a lower leg injury, Always B Miki missed the end of the American stud season and is currently restricted to stall rest as he continues his rehabilitation.

While the injury is not life-threatening, it has unfortunately ruled him out of international travel and stud duties in Australasia this year.

The timing of this setback is particularly disappointing given Always B Miki’s outstanding success as a sire across Australasia. He is currently enjoying a remarkable run, having shared top honours with Art Major as the leading sire of Australian Group 1 winners last season.

In 2025, his progeny continues to shine, including the undefeated NSW Derby champion Always Hot and the New Zealand bred dual Group 1 winner Mister Smartee.
