Hypothetical Matings Soar Past 8,500 – Test Your Mare with Value Sires

With the start of the breeding season on September 1 now less than two weeks away there has been a sharp rise in the number of hypothetical matings run on Breednet Premium stallions as broodmare owners search for inspiration and stallion parades at farms around Australia spark the imagination, so let’s look at some value options making news in stakes races on Saturday.

Reigning champion sire I Am Invincible has flown out of the gates at the start of a new season with three stakes-winners among 18 winners already sending him to the lead on winners, earnings and stakes-winners!  

I Am Invincible is book full and too expensive for the average breeder, but his sons are plentiful and the list below are all Premium stallions so available for Hypothetical matings if you love the bloodline, but budget is forcing you to the next best option.

Much missed Golden Slipper winning sire Sebring has shot into second place on the Australian General Sires List thanks to his outstanding mare Fangirl, winner of the Group I ATC Winx Stakes and while he is sadly no longer with us, he does have a good selection of sires sons and they include exiting young sire Supido.

Standing at Widden Stud as did his sire, Supido is the sire of explosive sprinter Buenos Noches, who resumed from a spell to win the Group III ATC Show County Stakes encouraging connections to dream of an Everest start.

Supido stood his first five seasons at fees ranging from $11,000 down to $8,800 and this year thanks to Buenos Noches and his other stakes-winning son What You Need, his fee has risen to $19,800… that’s still affordable, but could be the beginning of an upward spiral, so if you like him don’t waste any time.

New to the list of Sebring sons at stud is brilliant juvenile Sejardan, could he be another Supido? Test your mare with this Blue Gum Farm new recruit, whose pedigree bristles with 2YO speed.
