Clear Mountain studmaster Bob Frappell agreed to a deal with Kitchwin, through Magic Millions, to buy the rising 11-year-old stallion to stand alongside resident sires Worthy Cause (Choisir) and Love Conquers All (Mossman).

The trio will all stand at a fee of $5,500 (inc GST), with payment on live foal terms.

“He has got a lot of runners behind him, each week he gets winners and we’re happy to have him,” Frappell said yesterday.

“We thought he was a good sprinting type who would go well in Queensland.”

Sooboog is the sire of 83 individual winners including with his best performer the Grou[ II MRC Thousand Guineas Prelude winner Boogie Dancer and stakes-placed juveniles Port Albert and Birdsville.

Worthy Cause is best known as the sire of outstanding Group I winning mare Hinged, while Love Conquers All has five stakes winners to his name, including Group II winning mares Savanna Amour and Love You Lucy.
