The champion 3YO, the six-time Group 1 winner & weight-for-age superstar of Australia. Now one of Australia’s leading sires with 7 Group 1 winners, including Group 1-winning 2 & 3YO colts Castelvecchio & Militarize.
Three years ago we predicted that Dundeel’s 2020 and 2021 crops would take him to a whole new level of performance.
The fulfilment of that prediction began with his first two million-dollar yearlings sold in 2022. It continued with his 16 2YO winners and 14 stakes performers in 2022/23. And was under-lined by Militarize, Dundeel’s third Group 1-winning 2YO.
Dundeel put himself in the company of Champion Sires Snitzel, Written Tycoon, Savabeel & I Am Invincible when he broke into the top 10 on the Australian General Sires’ Premiership in April 2023. He ended that season in the No. 6 spot with prizemoney of $13.4 million and 7 stakeswinners including $1.5 million earner Hope In Your Heart among 124 winners.
Dundeel’s rise continued in 2023/24, with Militarize’s spectacular Golden Rose G1 victory, Celestial Legend’s outstanding Doncaster Mile G1 & Randwick Guineas G1 wins, Group winners Aquacade, Konasana, Sunsets, Tannhauser & Ain’tnodeeldun and exciting 2YOs Epimeles, Femminile & Duvana.
By 31 July 2024, Dundeel had posted best-so-far season tallies of winners (141), stakes performers (15), stakeswinners (8), Group winners (6) and Prizemoney ($15.2 million). He once again held a top 10 spot on the Australian General Sires’ Premiership and was a close runner-up on the 3YO Sires’ Premiership.
And he has 405 progeny, now 3YO and younger, bred at $66,000 and $82,500 that are yet to race…
