Jimmy ChouxMacAlister, who owns Redwood Park Stud and has a large broodmare band, also raced Group One-winning mare Magnifisio and the recently retired Group Two winning filly Whispering Brook.

Jimmy Choux, who stood at Rich Hill Stud in Matamata, was New Zealand's leading first season sire in 2015-16 and has been a consistent sire of winners in Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong and Singapore.

"We wish Alan and his team all the best with him and I'm sure he will be a welcome addition to the Western Australia breeding scene. I would also like to thank leading Perth Agent John Chalmers for his role in negotiating the sale." – NZ Racing Desk
