Written Tycoon will stand at Arrowfield stud this spring at a fee of $77,000.

As the only Victorian-based stallion consistently in the top ten on the Australian Sires’ Table, Written Tycoon is the sire of eight individual Group 1 winners, including Golden Slipper hero Capitalist, Blue Diamond Stakes winner Written By as well as this season’s all-the-way Oakleigh Plate winner Pippie.

With his yearlings creating history in the sale ring this year, selling up to $1.5 million for a filly at the Magic Millions, the progeny of Written Tycoon have continued to be in high demand, emphasised by four of his top five priced yearlings selling in the last two sale seasons.

With the shareholders in support of the decision to send Written Tycoon to the Hunter Valley for the 2020 breeding season, Woodside Park Stud will continue to support him with many of our elite mares, while Arrowfield Stud will also send a number of high-quality mares.

“To have a stallion the calibre of Written Tycoon stand in partnership with one of the world’s leading breeders Arrowfield Stud, is a further testament to the faith we’ve always had in him,” enthused Woodside Park Stud CEO James Price.

Woodside Park Stud will announce their remaining stallions fee’s this afternoon.
