No Time to Hesitate

Tara Madgwick - Thursday January 6

The last chance to secure yearlings by Arrowfield Stud’s now pensioned Not a Single Doubt comes at sales in 2022 and with declining fertility in his last season at stud in 2019 he has quite a small crop of yearlings and 14 will be offered at Magic Millions where he was the leading sire by average last year.

For those who might need reminding, Not a Single Doubt was a hot ticket at the Gold Coast last year with his progeny outselling the likes of I Am Invincible and Snitzel as seen in the table above.

He had four colts sell for $1million or more headed by $1.8million Man in the Mirror (from One More Honey), who won on debut in Sydney last month at Warwick Farm for Annabel Neasham, who will also saddle one of his fillies Soaring Ambition in the Magic Millions 2YO Classic next Saturday.

Not a Single Doubt is a favourite with many and with good reason!

A Listed winning son of Redoute’s Choice, who started his stud career at Arrowfield with six seasons at a fee of $13,750, Not a Single Doubt has scaled the heights as an elite stallion with his final crop of 37 live foals conceived at a fee of $110,000.
