The Dominant Colt - Still Dominant

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday Mar 17

Back in 2020, Farnan was the dominant colt going into the Golden Slipper and he came out of it the winner and six years on he is still dominant!

With wins in the Group II ATC Silver Slipper and Group II ATC Todman Stakes, Farnan won his Slipper for the Waterhouse Bott stable from the front as favourite.

Retired to Kia Ora Stud, Farnan hit $4million in seasonal earnings over the weekend and is the first second crop sire to pass that mark this season and he is also equal leader of his division by winners with 31 on the board.
