Coolmore have announced fees on their 2020 roster for Australia with champion sire Fastnet Rock taking top billing at a fee of $165,000 inc. GST.
“The Coolmore roster for 2020 provides a great balance of proven sires, highly promising young sires and an assortment of international superstars that we believe are particularly well suited to the Australian breeding landscape,” said Tom Magnier.
“We have been delighted with how well the progeny of our stallions have performed on the track and in the sales ring this season, however we remain aware that these are challenging times for everyone. As such, we have priced our stallions with the view to offering value to breeders.”
“Our three new sires - Calyx, Magna Grecia and Yes Yes Yes - are outstanding prospects who all demonstrated brilliant speed in their biggest wins and are very competitively priced,” said Tom Magnier, who was the leading purchaser at the recent Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale securing eight youngsters for $6.8 million, following on from Magic Millions where he purchased seven for $4.3million.
“We are major players as both buyers and sellers in the Australian yearling market, so we understand the importance of ‘type’ for commercial breeders.
“Importantly, each of our three new horses are outstanding physical specimens and we look forward to showing them to breeders in advance of the 2020 season.”
