He’s black, he’s beautiful, he’s a commanding Group 1 winner with earnings exceeding $5m, and he is Aquis Farm’s pin-up boy for the 2020 season. I had the pleasure of photographing Pierata’s arrival at his Murrurundi base last month and yesterday I did his cover shoot for the Stud’s Annual Brochure.
The stallion team led by Ejaz Hussain have done wonders with the horse already - he is letting down beautifully, has strengthened considerably through the hindquarter and is a gem to work with.
Looking forward to seeing the brochure and which photo secures the lead spot.
