Sir Patrick Hogan, of the world famous Cambridge Stud, has died. The 83-year-old was considered one of the world's finest horse breeders and studmasters.
Sir Patrick was a very competitive man and approached horse trading as a big-talking marketer. Sir Tristram didn't amount to much on the racetrack, but he sired a record number of winners. The enterprise was struck with misfortune when five of the horses died in a year.
Hogan as been widely hailed as the most influential personality in New Zealand racing for four decades.
The family also had a beachfront luxury holiday home at Mount Maunganui, a property dubbed Sir Tristram Place. “I consider myself a New Zealander, and a great admirer of the Queen,’’ he told The Press at the time. The Hogans turned down a $22 million offer for Zabeel, just as they had for Sir Tristram. Sir Patrick was a true icon of our industry and his legacy will last forever.— New Zealand Bloodstock (@KarakaChat) “She has been to Cambridge Stud [in 1990] and I would have considered it churlish to refuse such an honour for any reason. New Zealand Bloodstock and the entire thoroughbred industry mourn the loss of legendary breeder Sir Patrick Hogan. He built a 1830sqm colonial-style building with a high-pitched roof as his stud base while he and Justine and their daughters Nicola and Erin, lived in a sharemilker’s house with a corrugated iron roof. His insight and humour was obvious to us in those informal chats and we enjoyed the time we spent together. Sir Tristram also sported a singed coat after surviving a fire in Ireland, escaping only when a mare kicked a stable door out. After some success, he bought another breeding sire and renamed his property Fencourt Stud. A world-renowned breeder, leading owner, harrier of politicians, Hogan is the main man responsible for the huge tax break which is revolutionising racing.’’ He was knighted in 2000.
The trainer and breeder shaped the thoroughbred racing industry in New Zealand.
“Patrick was a remarkable man and very generous. That was his attitude, his ethos, for decades and decades. But his relentless success wasn’t just born of the deeds of those two great horses. One of the biggest names in the New Zealand thoroughbred racing and breeding industry, New Zealand Bloodstock supremo Sir Peter Vela remembers Hogan was one of the first people to guide him when he entered racing. Hogan was famous worldwide in the racing industry for the exploits of Cambridge Stud, the racing and breeding operation he started which shaped the thoroughbred racing industry in New Zealand and Australia. “He always wanted things done the right way and even though he was always up early if he had to stay up late to make sure things were done the right way, then he did that.

Sir Patrick Hogan, the man responsible for bringing the influential stallion Sir Tristram (Sir Ivor) and his champion sire son Zabeel to New Zealand, will.
We consider it a great honour to be allowed to continue the name Cambridge Stud that Sir Patrick and Justine, Lady Hogan developed into a New Zealand icon for over 40 years. Sir Patrick was a true icon of our industry and his legacy will last forever.— New Zealand Bloodstock (@KarakaChat) New Zealand Bloodstock and the entire thoroughbred industry mourn the loss of legendary breeder Sir Patrick Hogan. “I travelled around the world with Patrick a couple of times; South Africa a few times and Australia many times. “We’re very fortunate that the stud is still going as it is. Chittick told ANZ Bloodstock News: “The New Zealand breeding industry, over a long period of time, has all syndicated stallions and so we bought shares in each other’s horses. Thoughts and prayers to Lady Hogan and all the family. An icon,a leader and the person who helped shape the Breeding Industry and those in it. “Two such great horses in Sir Tristram and his son Zabeel couldn’t have been placed in better hands. I was actually on Zabeel’s management committee but I don’t ever recall having a meeting about him. “We spent many hours with Sir Patrick following the sale of the stud in 2018 and he was a regular visitor to the farm following the renovations,” said Lindsay.

“Two such great horses in Sir Tristram and his son Zabeel couldn’t have been placed in better hands. They have been amazing friends to both Wendy and myself,” Walls said. “He was a great mentor and to me he was like a father; he was a perfectionist, a great thinker, he was passionate, so methodical with his matings and everything he did. The legacy founded by Sir Tristram has continued to the present day, as witnessed by the number of class performers with his blood in their veins and now headed by his grandson Savabeel, New Zealand’s dominant sire of the past decade. “His name and persona was, and always will be, synonymous with the New Zealand thoroughbred breeding industry and his massive contribution to putting this country on the world stage.” “This country was so fortunate to have someone like him; he was a great horseman, his knowledge, what stallions to develop and how to grow the industry, so from every point of view his passing is just so sad. His dedication to the industry, his marketing skills, his flare and his professional fairness put the New Zealand industry and the national sales on the map internationally.” “For me personally and for so many other people who were mentored by Patrick it’s a very sad day,” said Marcus Corban, whose association with Hogan spanned four decades in a career that grew to becoming Cambridge Stud general manager. In a masterstroke that was to reap huge accolades and rewards for Cambridge Stud, Hogan selected Sir Tristram as his foundation stallion. In 1976, from humble beginnings and with a determination shared by his wife Justine, Hogan founded Cambridge Stud, a nursery that was to reshape the bloodstock industry and draw unprecedented international attention to New Zealand. Long-time associate Joe Walls, both a friend and business associate in his role as Chairman of New Zealand Bloodstock, spoke on behalf of many when describing Patrick Hogan’s contribution to New Zealand’s proud heritage. “I have been fortunate enough to have known Patrick and Justine for more than 50 years and my association was more than just a client, salesman one.
Cambridge Stud founder Sir Patrick Hogan reshaped the New Zealand thoroughbred breeding industry, with star stallions Sir Tristram and his son, Zabeel.
Once he had his own draft under the Cambridge Stud shingle, he brought a new standard to promotion and marketing. “Two such great horses in Sir Tristram and his son Zabeel couldn’t have been placed in better hands. “He was a great mentor and to me he was like a father; he was a perfectionist, a great thinker, he was passionate, so methodical with his matings and everything he did. They have been amazing friends to both Wendy and myself,” Walls said. What was to become a legion of Cambridge Stud staff quickly learned the Hogan way of impeccable personal presentation and the expectations of the man known respectfully as The Boss. From humble beginnings and with a determination shared by his wife Justine, in 1976, Sir Patrick founded Cambridge Stud, a nursery that was to reshape the bloodstock industry and draw unprecedented international attention to New Zealand.
