If you’ve just bought a mare at the recent sales, you’ll now be pondering which stallion could be her perfect match, so we’re going to look hard at the options in various price points in coming days and weeks offering facts and statistics that might bring clarity for the undecided.
All of these stallions are well proven champion sires, who are priced as they are because of their exceptional racetrack and sale ring results which have been well documented over many years.
All of them are in the current Top 10 Australian General Sires by earnings list.
Below is a ready reckoner of some pertinent facts on these champion stallions - the stakes-winners are worldwide and date from August 1, 2020.
Key points to consider being Zoustar and Pierro are much younger than their peers and on the way up, while Written Tycoon has had a stud career taking in three states and as many studs, but the legacy of his year at Arrowfield last spring and the massive spend at recent broodmare sales by the Written Tycoon Syndicate should see him well placed in the future to exceed all that he has done previously.
