WATCH: Set on 200 acres of rolling, fertile land on the Mornington Peninsula, Two Bays Farm has grown into a leading thoroughbred nursery since its establishment in 2012.

Led by principal Ross Ferris and farm manager Rob Carlile, the dedicated team spares no detail in their pursuit of excellence. With significant investment in elite broodmares and state-of-the-art infrastructure, they’ve created the ideal foundation for raising top-quality racehorses.

Ahead of the Yearling Sale, we visited Two Bays Farm to see firsthand the the foundation they’re building, for long-term success.

Thrilled with the performance of our 3yo filly Empire of Pain (Justify), who claimed her maiden win in style at just her second start, dominating by 4.3 lengths! She’s the first foal out of our beautiful mare Foxpack, who also has a promising Street Boss yearling c**t heading to the Magic Millions and a stunning Toronado c**t at foot.

A huge thank you to Grahame Begg for his expert training and to the in-form Jo Bowditch for a great ride. Excited to see what’s next for this talented filly!

Meet Rob Carlile – Farm Manager at Two Bays Farm 🐎

Rob Carlile has been our dedicated farm manager for over 10 years, and the photo above perfectly captures his love for horses and his positive nature.

Rob’s journey in the industry began at just 14, when he took on summer work experience at Fulmen Park, prepping yearlings in exchange for a pair of boots. During this time, he formed a special bond with a Danzero filly who later topped the Magic Millions Yearling Sales, giving him an unforgettable buzz.

Mentored by Lee Powell and Steve Lalor, Rob spent the next four summers at Fulmen Park, deepening his passion for horses year after year.
His career took off when he joined Darley, spending four years overseeing and caring for some of the world’s top stallions, including Street Cry, Dubawi, Shamardal, and Exceed and Excel.

Returning to Victoria, Rob spent four years at Three Bridges, gaining hands-on experience in all aspects of farm management. This broad exposure equipped him with a wide range of skills and the confidence to expand his horizons internationally which led to an exciting job with the very progressive Tweenhills Farm in the UK.

“I’ve been fortunate to work with incredible horses and people,” Rob says.

The yearling fillies on the farm are waiting to begin their prep on Monday.

Lot 449 - Dirty Work x Magic Pulse By first season sire Dirty Work who has already impressed with some great results from the MM Gold Coast Sale. A beautiful moving filly from a mare (the dam of stakes-placed Tempest Charm) who can throw a runner.

Lot 276 - Zoustar (AUS) x First Channel (AUS) - Filly Bred on the highly successful Zoustar x Danehill cross, this filly has presence and style, a great girth and coat, long ears and a beautiful walk. If you want to race the next Ozzmosis, North Star Lass or The Astrologist, don't mis

Lot 172 - Blue Point (IRE) x Clear for Take Off (GB) - Colt This colt is one of the best moving yearlings we have ever prepared. He is by Blue Point out of a French-stakes performed mare from a deep black type family. The colt has a brilliant attitude and is very athletic. Two Bays Farm has a knack of producing very good race horses from Darley stallions including Kubrick and Military Zone and we're confident this colt will impress at inspections.

Our elite mare Harmony Rose - a listed winning and dual group 1 placed - has transitioned seamlessly to also being an elite mum. Her So You Think filly looks to be following in both her sire and dam's footsteps. 🏆✨🐴

It's great to have Xtravagant Star back in full training with the Maher Eustace stable after being a brilliant 2 year old with T&C McEvoy. Two Bays Farm race and will breed this mare in partnership with Widden 🐴 ⁠ ⁠ Ciaron Maher Racing McEvoy Mitchell Racing Widden Stud

Our Street Boss x Foxpack colt loving a scratch this afternoon.

Merry Xmas from all of us at #tbf . We hope you have a safe and happy festive season.

7 days until our weanlings arrive at the complex for The Great Southern Sale! #inglis #weanlings2021 #BreedingBrilliance #PeninsulaPride
