Sired by Written Tycoon, he really needs no introduction but I’ll give you one anyway! Written Tycoon now stands at the beautiful farm of Yulong where he is treated like a king and why shouldn’t he with these following stats! He was the first stallion in 44 years to sire the winner of both the Group One Caulfield Guineas (Ole Kirk) and the Group One Thousand Guineas (Odeum). He is the first sire since Redoute’s Choice and Danehill in the last 25 years to sire two colts to win the two richest Group One 2-year-old features in Australia. Capitalist took out the 2016 Golden Slipper Stakes, while Written By claimed victory in the 2018 Blue Diamond Stakes.
Top progeny sired by Written Tycoon include Pippi, Tycoon Tara, Music Magnate, Written By, Capitalist, Super Cash, Rich Enuff, Winning Rupert and the list goes on and on! Written Tycoon stands for $165,000 so we think we have bought exceptional value with this colt.

Click on the following YouTube video to see his latest update on April 20..
Out of the mare Sunset Affair, she is a daughter of Exceed and Excel. A two time winner over 1200m, she is the dam of two foals to race and both are winners over distances of 1200m, we think this colt will be a fast speedy type!
As of April 20, the colt has now completed his breaking in and education with Nathan Dunn’s. He will now spell for 6 to 8 weeks, he will then pre train and then make his way to our Cranbourne stables where Mick and Michael will assess him and map out a program.
This colt was purchased for $275,000. Purchase includes purchase of the horse, pre sale vetting (x-rays and scope), 12 months insurance, Inglis Race Series, post sale scope, video, transport, breaking in and education, one months agistment and GST.
