What price did you expect? In comparison to the way most most first season sires are priced at I think it's probably about right. Manhattan Rain's first season was 44 from memory, so SYT at 66 is reasonable.

Lol, 44k would have been more reasonable. Hes gone from a stallion everyone raved about to a dud on his past few performances. Not worthy of the 66k at all.

Hang on, how has he become a dud?? He's run credibly overseas, picked up Group 1's and put in some really sound efforts in some of the world's best races with questionable tactics from trainer and jockeys.
 
He is a spectacular looker, and you cannot take away his achievements here in Australia prior to his departure. The horse would have emulated Kingston Town and won three consequtive Cox Plate's had he stayed here, nothing is more sure than that. Might have even won 4 straight if he ket going into this spring.
 
I think the horse will be absolutely inundated at 66K, just imagine how popular his first crop will be.
 
I generally don't like first season sires standing at more than 30K, but this is a very special horse and the market will support him strongly at that figure.

Seriously? The races where he should have won, but didnt, wether it was bad race tatics or just he couldnt do it, puts a dampner on him more than his highlight wins.
 
And yes he MAY have won a 3rd cox plate, but he didnt, so you cant take that into the equasion

It doesn't put a dampner at all, well certainly not to southern hemisphere breeders.
 
The only thing to my mind that puts a dampner commercially is his 3rd placing in the Melbourne Cup and that dampner is only because there are a lot of idiots out there who cannot accept the versatility of high class horses and want to label everything.
 
This horse has just about everything you look for in a stallion. He was an outstanding 3yo, was effective at a mile, had a great turn of foot, proved himself at WFA at 3,4,5 and is just about the best looking horse you will ever see. 
 
He has a presence about him that you only see very rarely. Whether he makes a champion stallion or not is another question but I can assure you he will be super popular, certainly the most popular first season sire available in Australasia in 2012.

I don't think it's too high on his performances, he's been terribly placed by O'Brien, Dubai was pathetic placement, as was the breeders, he's a turf horse ffs, his breeding on mums side is wonderful, 60k is about right, I'd send a mare to him, possibly a mare with stamina actually.

Phar Lap, Sailor's Guide, Balmerino and Strawberry Road, and it's debatable if any of them performed with more consistency at the highest level than SYT.  Best thing u have ever seen beaten in an arc, course record time, not a horse passed him in the run and made ground on the winner.

One for the regulars here.

I was once told that a successful stallion almost always has a dam that had plenty of ancestors who had been able to produce stallions.

Having a look at SYT's dam there doesn't seem to be many stallions coming from it. Is that a concern for his stud success? In other words will it stop him from becoming a top-line stallion and relegate him to a run-of-the-mill stallion?

So You Thinks family has been in Australasia since the mid 1850s, would it have had many high class racing males retire to stud ?


I will have a look.

Doesn't look like it Djebel, but that is part of my question. Looking at his tail female it is quite heavily biased to producing female progeny (although Triassic is 50:50). The only stallion I could find of any note was Turf Ruler but I'm not sure how successful he was-studbook shows he had 7 stakeswinners from 207 live foals in australia.
Perhaps it is a female line like the Denise's Joy family that has produced a number of stakeswinners with the majority being female and only a few stallions with average results.

If you analyse the progeny of the direct female family, going back 6 generations, you'll find that they've produced about 80% females up until Triassic.

That's about what I saw RFF. Does this predominance of the tail female producing females signify a negative to SYT's chances of being a success? I don't know either way just thought i'd put it out there to see what others think.

Soothsayer-Thorn Park is doing well but hasn't become a High chaparral or Fastnet Rock although it is early and he is showing some positive signs. I do like Thorn Park as a racehorse, a specimen and as a stallion if I had a suitable mare. When I say average, I don't mean ordinary, I mean 'not superb'-such as warranting a $66,000 service fee. (Thorn Park's fee is $22000NZ-a bargain!)

We really are being harsh on SYT here I reckon, he is a "world class galloper".. who could have performed so much better here, continued winning and would have way less less dud runs if he had of been placed by Bart here, he would be unbeaten but for his Melbourne Cup I reckon...he is a serious talent, don't forget that, I love him and think his talent will be passed on somewhere somehow, talent like that doesn't just disappear into the ether.

Tewll me, how much more is his service now that he went to Europe, as opposed to if he stayed here and won another 2 cox plates and multiple other WFA races like the BMW etc...?

Has Europe increased his fee or reduced it..I say it's ruined it my self.

Question to everyone.... do you think his overseas haunts have increased, decreased or had little to no effect on his Australian service fee.
 
I personally believe the latter. I remember before he went overseas I thought he'd be set somewhere around the 70k mark such was the hype around the horse.

I do think $66k is overs, I'm surprised by the number of people defending his fee. You have to remember that we're not in the 'good times' any more - when we could take any kind of correct enough colt to the sales an be almost certain of making money. Stud farms (not all, but many) still believe we are still in those days!
 
Yes, he won two cox plates - the first of which was dominated by two front running three year olds. Suggesting it was hardly a stellar field and he ran the race to suit. Whobegotyou was the only other runner in he field who held genuine group one credentials and he failed to stay strongly.
 
The second Cox Plate? He was a $1.50 favourite..... again, he didn't have to beat much, bar More Joyous who was unable to see out the distance on that occassion.
 
There was much talk about his performances overseas, and the riding instructions given. Shoulda, woulda, coulda in my opinion. He just wasn't quite up to the european stayers - which is by no means a negative, but $66k........?
 
His sire is $77k this year and I'd imagine they will deal on him more aggressively than So You Think. I know which price is more appealing to me.
 
I'm by no means saying he's going to be a failure, or that he was a poor racehorse. He certainly wasn't and I hope he won't be a failure but I think he's overs at that price. $55k down to $45k-$50k would have been much more realistic in these tough times.

I reckon had he won the Prince Of Wales + The Arc he would be standing at 100,000+ so in effect what he achieved has probably saved Aussie breeders 25,000 or so maybe even more.

I doubt the races that he won in Europe have added to what he would have stood for had he raced exclusively in Australia.

Europe added nothing to his appeal, he was poorly trained and placed by O'Brien.

He was the horse on everyone's lips here before Dato became greedy and sold him off.

He's been slaughtered by jockeys and trainers and now everyone bags the horse, the races he won in irlenad were so crap that you could of sent benchmark 58ers from here and won them..pathetic.

 He will make a lovely stallion and I would not hesitate to send mares to him if I could afford it.

I agree with Quez, I think he will be a star stallion. He's going to appeal to a lot of mares in this country. I believe he is going to have the rare ability to create sprinters right through to stayers, depending on what he is mated with. 
 
The Sadlers Wells line has proven to cross well with Danehill/Danzig line mares, So You Think probably has as much brilliance than any stallion through that line in the world today, and you'd be hard pressed to find one as good looking.

Just on service fees..

If he stands for 66k and his first crop won't be seen for 3 years, what chances are there that his fee will drop before the first crop races..?

I'm just thinking that if you wanted to send a mare to him but not pay 66k wait till right before his first crop race and gamble they will be good runners and pop your mare into him right before then...if his books are small, then a reduction in fee would ensue or no..?

The question I always ask myself is "what would his fee be if he turns out to be really successful -say in the top 10 Australian sires?'
In a lot of cases a really successful stallion ends up with a lesser fee than his initial price.

Take a look at Lonhro.  Started on $66K.  By 2009 it had dropped to $33K, up to $88K in 2010, down to $77K in 2011, now skyrocketed to $110K this season. 
 
It might be, as in the case with Lonhro & Woodlands/Darley, that a large percentage of the early mares he serves will be those owned by Coolmore who may retain a portion of his yearlings to race under their banner (look at Fastnet Rock and Atlantic Jewel as an example).  I could be wrong of course.

They probably won't drop his advertised price, but would most likely negotiate a reduced fee to try and fill that 4th year book (also generally works that way in the 3rd year too).  Different though when you start talking about these 'superstar' horses when they go to stud, as they generally have little trouble filling them regardless.  Sea the Stars has had no trouble filling his book 3 years in a row without a drop in fee.
 
I tend to try and operate on sending mares to stallions in their 3rd or 4th year due to my reduced budget.  I think you have more to work with than that of a 1st or 2nd year sire, so while it is still a punt you can take some of the guess work out.

In Australia everything is for sale.  They do go and then buy a selected few at the sales, and keep horses to race who don't meet the reserve.

Yeah this is what I getting at, it's gamble cause their progeny could be duds or superstars! but it's that third year where you find a crossroads in the stallions career and pricing, and it's here where you might just snag a bargain if he takes off the next few following years..Lonhro is a great example.

You need to start quality horses off on a high fee to prevent garbage mares bringing the stats down.

I think 66k is very fair and could've been 6 figures given his dual hemisphere G1 performances.

Fertility issues I believe.
 

I heard the "fertility issues" thing too re SSB - I gather it was mentioned on TVN, but with no detail. Anyone know any more?  He stood his first season in the UK in 2011, with apparently a book of 64 mares (but I don't know how many live foals), then came south for an understandably bigger book of 116 mares, of which only 7 have so far appeared in the Stud Book as "missed".  So if there are indeed "fertility issues", there must be a lot of missed mares not yet returned as such, because that looks like a pretty good percentage so far!  But doesn't that show up within the first 6 weeks or so?

Also, did the "fertility issues" thing apply in the northern hemisphere as well? Odd, if so, because the northern season begins in February, so you'd think they'd have found out there was a problem long before he began here in September?



Posted By: Run For Fun
Date Posted: 03 May 2012 at 4:15pm
As you suggest Amateur the only returns thus far will be in respect of those who've missed or slipped, however generally speaking the majority of breeders don't ususally return mares that've missed until later in the year.  Or in more than the odd case don't return them at all.  So in reality the returns to date don't actually prove much at all just yet.
 
The point about NH covers is well made, so over to others who might know a bit more.

Click on the mares name and you will find most mares got covered by another stallion so wont come up as missed.  Had issues in Ireland then came here and got smashed with 116 mares which is a lot considering they took him out of service half way thru season.  Then went back to Ireland for more.Wacko


Posted By: amateur
Date Posted: 03 May 2012 at 6:43pm
Aha! Thanks - I didn't think to check out the individual mares.  But won't they still show in his stallion fertility stats, even if they don't end up "missed" on their own page?  Or will they just disappear into the inevitable gap referred to by RFF between number served and number of mare returns?
 
And you're right, he did indeed go back up north. He's up on the Coolmore Ireland site for the 2012 season with a 2012 fee of 10k in Euros, but his "stud record" tab on the site is just a one-page ad about what a wonderful racehorse he was, and nothing about numbers of 2012 foals or new covers.  Still, if they're prepared to put him out again up north, he can't have been a complete flop up there, so I suspect you're right: he did OK up there, but they overdid it with the book size down here. So no trip south this year at least - not until he's recovered his strength and the dust has settled on an apparently less-than-glorious first season.  And by next year they'll probably have some pretty baby-photos from the north to show us what nice foals he can make (given half a chance...!).

I remembered this thread which covered most of the discussion around Starspangledbanner and his fertility issues and why they don't test for fertility pre-purchase.  http://forum.thoroughbredvillage.com.au/starspangledbanner_topic35393_post595051.html?KW=starspangledbanner#595051" rel="nofollow - http://forum.thoroughbredvillage.com.au/starspangledbanner_topic35393_post595051.html?KW=starspangledbanner#595051

Should know the answer to this but don't.
 
How do you identify which mares a stallion covers in a particular season?
 
Any help appreciated.

Go to the stallion on the studbook website, click on fertility statistics then click on the year in question.

Are they just going to retire Starspangled Banner or work on him like they did with Foreplay.  Mind you I think Foreplay had better fertility than Starspangle Banner appeared to have.

Family of Dancing Brave and inbred to Sadler's Wells.  Maybe people thought it would be too stout for Australia.  But your right a very interesting pedigree.  There was a nice grey Redoute's filly also.

Wish I was more disciplined I'd buy her just for her potential breeding career anything on track a bonus.

Encosta is retired.
 
At his peak he stood for $300k plus, FR's highest advertised fee was/is $275k.

Has an interesting chance in the next at Ellerslie to get off the mark.

Its an interesting race. We pigeon hole the Kiwis as being patient yet there is a gelded son of Pour Moi in the race as well. Nothing patient about that in my opinion.

Sacred Elixir well supported and fought gallantly with winner O'Rachael who was slow away and was also a certainty beaten last start. $2.25 fixed odds on O'Rachael very nice thank you. Looked the two to beat.

When a stallion is offered for private sale that is a sign that the stud has
either reduced his fee because he is on the wane or they have no
confidence in the price they are asking imo.

Either way when you see this method of selling which is opposite to the
market in general;

Buyer Beware!


Posted By: StormSiren

When was he listed as private? Was dropped to $49,500 in 2015 - not surprising given Australia's appetite for speed horses and first season sires.

I for one think he's going pretty well so far. Four runners, one group 2 winner (Gold Rush), one listed place getter (Conscious at her first start). For a stallion that should be siring better three year olds, seems pretty good to me!

This fully is about to jump in New Zealand, she has already won over 1000m but really took her time to win the race. Really she should be stepping up in trip not staying at 1000m. 

Be interesting to see how she goes.

Yes I think you are correct although it is a tough race - a lot of unexposed horses so certainly an exciting race to watch.

I doo like the way they have campaigned her so far.

The rest all seem to be being asked too much over too short.
