Eureka Stud’s gun sire Spirit of Boom passed a milestone on Friday siring his 100th winner of the season becoming the 13th stallion to achieve the feat.
Spirit of Boom got the job done with three year-old filly Spirit’s Charm, who won the 1600m maiden at Sunshine Coast as a short priced favourite.

Spirit of Boom is priced attractively this spring at a fee of $33,000 given he has covered terrific books of mares in his past three season after his initial four seasons at an $11,000 fee.
The benefit of better quality mares reflected in the sale ring this year with 28 of his yearlings selling at an average $193,750 at Magic Millions.
Already the sire of 13 stakes-winners, Spirit of Boom may well be one of the real upswing horses next season and the one after as his better bred stock come online.
