This year’s edition, will see a breeding right to champion Newgate Farm based sire Extreme Choice go under the hammer alongside two shares in Cool Archie's sire Cool Aza Beel and the ultra-consistent, super sire in All Too Hard.

Extreme Choice

He is the fastest Australasian stallion this century to sire five individual Group One winners, delivering an elite-level performer every 23 runners — a strike rate unmatched in the modern era.

His strike rate (4.17%) of Group One winners to runners is truly elite. Superseding the legendary sires Frankel, Galileo, Dubawi, Redoute's Choice, I Am Invincible, Snitzel and Written Tycoon, just to name a few. 

To stand alongside recently announced star sprinter Olentia, a host of high-quality race fillies will feature in the catalogue — including the blue blooded racemare Vienna Princess.
