Captivant Colt Shines at Warwick Farm Trials
Captivant’s burgeoning reputation for producing precocious 2YOs took another leap forward at today’s Warwick Farm trials, with Courthezon powering to victory in Heat 10.
Juvenile Trial Watch – Warwick Farm
We had three heats for 2YO’s run at Warwick Farm on Friday morning over 815m with winners by Farnan, Ole Kirk and Kia Ora Stud’s first season sire Captivant, while Stay Inside had an impressive trial winner at Murray Bridge.
Captivant’s early promise was on full display at today’s Waipa trials when Capital Express stormed to victory in Heat 4. The Paul Pertab-trained 2YO colt impressed early, showcasing the speed and class expected of his G1 Champagne Stakes-winning sire in a performance that marked him as one to watch.

$220,000 for Captivant Half-Sister to Private Harry
Rheinwood Pastoral always had high hopes for their Captivant half-sister to unbeaten 3YO sprint star Private Harry and she duly attracted plenty of interest at the Inglis Classic Yearling Sale on Monday before going on to fetch $220,000.
Back in 2020, the Magic Millions Yearling Sale marked the first opportunity to purchase yearlings by Champion 2YO Capitalist and one of the most expensive colts by the Golden Slipper winner at the Gold Coast also turned out to be his best.
Captivant was sharp enough to win a Victory Vein over 1000m pre-Christmas, superior enough to be a G1 Champagne Stakes-winning two-year-old, and classy enough to fight out a Caulfield Guineas with Anamoe. Timeform rated 121, Captivant is the best son of Champion 2YO Capitalist and descends from one of Australia’s most exciting sirelines. First yearlings have sold up to $340k in 2025.
