Who Will be First to 100?

Tara Madgwick - Thursday December 3

There’s a head to head rivalry at the top of the Australian Sires List between two of our big guns, who are vying to be the first stallion this season to crack 100 winners.

Standing head and shoulders above their rivals in terms of siring winners are Written Tycoon and I Am Invincible, who promise to hit the milestone of 100 winners for the season over the weekend or early next week.

Written Tycoon

I Am Invincible has had nine winners in the past seven days and 30 in the past 30 days, while Written Tycoon has had seven in seven days and 27 in the past 30.

I am Invincible
