While Extreme Choice went to the top of the First Season Sire by Earnings table courtesy of Stay Inside’s Golden Slipper win, it’s impossible to escape the fact that Capitalist has had more runners, more winners and more stakes winners than any other freshman this season, and been the darling of the sales ring, so what do we make of him at Easter?
He’s had three stakes winners so far in his first season, importantly including his second highest priced yearling of last season at $600,000, Gr3 Black Opal Stakes winner Kalashnikov along with $1.3 million dollar earner Profiteer, a $165,000 buy and the unbeaten Listed winner Tycoon Humma bought for 240,000 at Inglis Melbourne Premier.
So here are the his best so far:
And here is the ten lots on offer at Inglis Easter including a half-brother to Gr1 Coolmore Stud Stakes winner Exceedance and a half-brother to this season’s promising youngster Home Affairs, out of a half-sister to Russian Revolution.
What does a good Written Tycoon look like?
What does a good Fastnet Rock look like?
