Leading First Season Sire and Champion Two-Year-Old Sire Written Tycoon (Iglesia), currently second leading sire for both wins and winners in Australia, and over 110 stakes winners as a sire, including 14 Group One winners.
Written Tycoon is also a sire of sires, including Golden Slipper (Gr. 1, 1200m) winner Capitalist, Group One winners Written By and Ole Kirk, and Rich Enuff, Winning Rupert.
The colt is from a mare by Champion Sire Pins (Snippets), Hectopascal, winner of six races from 1200m – 1600m in Australia, while grand-dam Sussex Dancer (Danehill Dancer) has left winners and stakes placed Meghan (So You Think) and Reeverderci (Reliable Man).
“He’s from a great farm at Curraghmore Stud, where in recent times we’ve bought and trained the 1000 Guineas (Gr. 1, 1600m) winner Kahma Lass, stakes winner In A Twinkling, and Heroic Valour, a Group One winner and now stallion in Australia, with progeny selling to $350,000,” said David Ellis.
“He’s a beautiful colt by an outstanding sire, from a good Cambridge Stud family, and a alert colt with great balance.”
The colt carries a cross of Champion Two-Year-Old in Britain and Ireland, Try My Best (Northern Dancer), on the sire line of Written Tycoon and dam line of Hectopascal.
