November Foals? Time to Breed a Winner with Aquis

Media Release - Friday November 14

November breeding reminders, here’s the truth… some of the best are born late.

Of the 36 stakes races run in Australia this month alone, eight were won by horses foaled between mid-October and the end of November, including four Group 1 stars: Half Yours, Giga Kick, Observer and Strictly Business.

And the next generation is already showing it.

Among this season’s early two-year-old winners, five of the 18 (28%) were born after 10 October, including:

Debut SW Torture - image Grant Courtney

Torture (20 October) - Debutant Stakes L winner

Calamari Ring (11 October) - Inglis RL winner

Thrill Hunter (12 October) - Kirkham Plate winner

Late foals aren’t waiting their turn, they’re winning early.

At the sales, the story’s the same:

Foals born after 15 October made up 15% of the 2025 Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale Book 1 & 2 catalogues, and 27% of the 2025 Inglis Classic Yearling Sale catalogue.

Late foals don’t just catch up, they compete, sell, and win.
