Hong Kong Calling for Zousain 2YOs at Inglis Ready 2 Race
For a stallion whose service fee at Widden this spring is just $22,000, Zousain had some outstanding results at the Inglis Ready 2 Race Sale on Thursday with seven youngsters averaging $189,857 highlighted by a pair of 2YOs that sold for upwards of $400,000.
Zousain's Saturday 4 Make a Strong Value Argument
Widden Stud’s Zousain put a highlight on a great start to the new season, siring four winners on Saturday with only two stallions siring more so far in August.
Promising Zousain Filly Scores at Flemington
The highest priced filly by Zousain sold in 2024 when snapped up by astute trainer Mitch Freedman for $230,000 from the Rosemont draft at Magic Millions, Salizou is starting to pay back that purchase price with a Flemington victory on Saturday.
Horses bred by and sold by Rheinwood Pastoral include newly retired to stud Group I winners Libertad and Private Harry and at Ballarat on Sunday we saw another promising youngster off the same farm beginning his career with a dazzling debut win.
Zousain Keeps the Winners Coming
A full sister to Group winning filly Amelita, who sold for $800,000 at the Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale earlier this year, two year-old Zousain filly Jaipur Maison opened her account when scoring at Hawkesbury on Thursday.
Sires that can produce 2YO winners and in particular 2YO stakes-winners have a unique appeal in the marketplace and one stud has six stallions on their 2026 roster that have done just that this season and not one of those stallions stands for more than $27,500.
