Cox Plate winner Ocean Park will stand at New Zealand's Waikato Stud for a first season fee of $NZ30,000 ($A24,733).

Waikato Stud's Mark Chittick brokered a deal with several other New Zealand breeding entities to ensure the four-year-old would stand in his homeland.

The five-time Group One winner is in quarantine in England after injuring a tendon in last month's Dubai Duty Free which ended his overseas campaign.

"Horses the calibre of Ocean Park don't come along every day, and when they do, you have to do all you can to secure them," Chittick said.

"These are the horses that are the next chapter for New Zealand's breeding industry and this is why we were wonderfully supported by many of New Zealand's leading breeders in our quest to get him.

"We could not have struck this deal without them."

A son of Thorn Park who died in New Zealand late last year, Ocean Park earned a Timeform rating of 128 in April.

Trainer Gary Hennessy and his fellow part-owners Andrew Wong and Stephen Yen will retain an interest in Ocean Park.

"It's been a fabulous ride with him and we are so pleased to have struck a deal with Waikato Stud, who are literally just down the road from me," Hennessy said.

Ocean Park is likely to take up residence at Waikato Stud in June and his injury is expected to have healed by the time he begins stallion duties in September.
