A Champion Sire, Written Tycoon stands his third season at Yulong in 2023, bringing proven star quality to an elite young roster. Australia’s leading first-season sire in 2010/11, and leading sire of two-year-olds in 2015/16, Written Tycoon continues to produce stakes winners year after year, and now has 12 Group 1 winners to his name. As expected, his legacy has gained traction. His Group 1 Golden Slipper-winning son Capitalist is now a Group 1-producing sire, and the 2022/23 season saw his son Written By sire two juvenile stakes winners from his first crop.

Throughout his time at Yulong, Written Tycoon has been supported by some of Australasia’s most prolific mares including 14-time Group 1 winner Melody Belle and top sprinters In Her Time, Viddora, Away Game and Greysful Glamour. Meanwhile, his yearlings continue to be hot commodities in the sale ring, averaging over $300,000 in 2023 and headed by a $1.4-million colt for the second year running.
“Written Tycoon has been a leading stallion in Australia for a number of years, producing some top level horses. Coolangatta has been one of those flag-bearing horses for him, it’s fitting that she will be his first European runner and hopefully his first successful one. He continues to cover some quality mares at Yulong that will only build on an already well-credentialed profile.”
