Massive six-figure stud fee announced for Home Affairs

Star colt Home Affairs will stand for a six-figure fee at Coolmore upon his return from a Royal Ascot tilt later this year.

Coolmore confirmed their 2022 Australian stallion roster on Wednesday afternoon with Home Affairs set at a fee of $110,000 in his first season.

It immediately puts Home Affairs as the second most expensive horse on the Coolmore Australia roster where champion stallion Fastnet Rock holds top billing at $165,000.

Home Affairs confirmed his status as one of the best sprinters in the country when he downed Nature Strip in the Lightning Stakes at Flemington in February, adding to his Coolmore Stud Stakes success last spring.

Coolmore and trainer Chris Waller are set to target Royal Ascot with the gun son of boom sire I Am Invincible, which will take on the Group 1 Platinum Jubilee Stakes in June.

The colt will then return to Australia to resume the next phase of his career.

“It’s with the utmost excitement that we welcome Home Affairs to Coolmore for the upcoming season,” Coolmore Australia’s Tom Moore said.

“He was identified by the team at the 2020 Inglis Easter Yearling Sale as an absolute ‘must have’ offering.

“His perfect blend of speed, pedigree and physique have seen him become one of the best stallion prospects to retire to stud in Australia for many years.”

Home Affairs was one of three new stallions announced to the Coolmore roster including St Mark’s Basilica ($44,000) and Acrobat ($13,750).

Other notables on the Coolmore roster include Pierro ($99,000), So You Think ($93,500), Justify ($55,000), Yes Yes Yes ($38,500) and American Pharaoh ($49,500).

Outstanding pedigree including close relationship to hot young sire Russian Revolution, and with the Newgate push behind him its hard to see him failing.  But at $110k you wouldn't want to be overbreeding an ordinary mare.

I wouldn't send a horse to England until it had established something like dominance here. Hit and miss horses like Home Affairs here are highly likely to miss there.

He was also in the wrong race. There was no indication that Home Affairs is suited to a hard 1200 there. He struggles with a soft 1200 here.
