Bivouac
Exceed And Excel’s best-performed son to retire to stud.
Crowned World Champion Sprinter, Champion Three-Year-Old, amassing $5,696,110 in prize money and retiring a six-time Group winner, three at G1 level.
Brilliant at two: G3 Kindergarten Stakes by two lengths to Libertini.
Better at three: a dual-G1 winner of the G1 Golden Rose and G1 Newmarket Handicap (like Exceed And Excel).
Blitzed them at four: a 3 1/4 length winning margin in the G1 weight-for-age sprint – the Darley Sprint Classic at Flemington.
Fully booked in his first two seasons with 55 Stakes-winning and 37 Stakes-producing dams. Progeny coming through include half-siblings to Duais, Cylinder and Hellfest. This season’s foals include the dam of Daumier plus siblings or half-siblings to Anamoe, Lucky Sweynesse and Loving Gaby.
