The highest price for a first season sire on the opening day of the Adelaide Magic Millions Yearling Sale was achieved by Widden Stud’s dual Group I winner Russian Camelot (IRE), whose filly from Shakespearean Lass sold for $180,000.
The win of Zougotcha in the $1million Group I ATC Coolmore Classic (1500m) at Rosehill last Saturday was a significant one for her broodmare sire Fastnet Rock as it gave him the kick he needed to dislodge Encosta de Lago from the top of the Australian Broodmare Sires List.
