BARAMUL STUD
PRESENTS ANOTHER HIGH QUALITY DRAFT
B
aramul Stud Manager Paul Thompson is looking forward to the 2022 Magic Millions, confident that the famed stud’s draft is a high quality one of great appeal.
Lot 453 is the first yearling out of the ATC Oaks-G1 winner Royal Descent to be offered for sale and also out of a high class race mare is lot 508 whose dam is the Oakleigh Plate-G1, 1100m winner Shamal Wind.
“It is a good draft with a mix of early foaling two year-old types and some later foals who will continue to improve.”
Descendants of Denise’s Joy continue to excel and lot 670 out of Villa Moura is a fine example, with lot 709 (half-brother to the Listed winner Confrontational) also from great family, that which produced Ethereal.
Having seven colts by star stallion I Am Invincible is somewhat of a coup for Baramul and of course they are all from outstanding families. First off the rank is lot 213 out of the stakes placed Redoute’s Choice Lipari, dam of the ATC Derby-G1, 2400m hero Levendi and the Group 3 winners Wu Gok and Marcel From Madrid. Next up is lot 292 out of Mountain Laurel whose dam is the multiple Group One winner Private Steer whilst lot 446 is a half-brother to the stakes placed Time Is Precious from the family of Lotteria and Inferno.

Australia’s reigning Champion Sire Written Tycoon is also nicely represented in the draft by a filly (lot 183) out of the stakes winner Kryptelon and a colt (lot 538) out of Snitzel Blitz from a well known European family, that of the big race winners Arazi, Noverre, Joyeux Danseur and Jim French.
