Welcome to Sledmere Stud

Welcome to Sledmere Stud, situated in the acclaimed Upper Hunter Valley of NSW at Scone — the horse capital of Australia.

The stud has an illustrious history as a thoroughbred nursery which dates back to 1920. Since such time, Sledmere Stud has relentlessly been developed to accommodate the needs of thoroughbreds.

Catriona Murphy and her husband Royston are now entrusted with the responsibility of maintaining the family owned property and to ensure its viability for future generations to come. Their extensive industry experience, enthusiasm and dedication is very well known and highly regarded within the thoroughbred fraternity, and provides great assurance for the stud’s clients.

Sledmere Stud prides itself on attention to detail and personable one-on-one service and advice for our clients. We specialise in short and long term broodmare agistment, yearling preparation, spelling and injury recovery, and rehabilitation.

Our goal at Sledmere is simple: To breed and raise sound, healthy and on-type horses that command top dollar in the ring and  ultimately graduate to racetrack success.

We’d love to work with you to achieve the best possible outcome with your thoroughbreds, and invite you to call Catriona (0409 369 965) or Royston (0428 418 926) to discuss your requirements and objectives.
