1 Race an Athletic WRITTEN TYCOON Filly

By Australian Champion 1 st Season Sire 10/11 WRITTEN TYCOON Written Tycoon began his career in Victoria at a modest fee ($8250) in 2007 and became Leading Australian First Season Sire in 2010-11.

2 By Australian Champion 1 st Season Sire 10/11 WRITTEN TYCOON Written Tycoon began his career in Victoria at a modest fee ($8250) in 2007 and became Leading Australian First Season Sire in From just 14 juvenile runners in Australia and NZ he had six first crop winners and from the 89 foals in that first crop he has now had 71 runners for 51 winners (158 wins) of $4.9m. It is very difficult for a horse to make such an impact off a low fee base, but three first crop Group 1 place getters pushed their sire ahead of much higher profile rivals to land the first season honours. This success has continued and he is currently in the Top 8 on the 2017/18 Leading General Australian Sires with 143 winners of $9.03m and in the Top 4 on the Leading 2 Year Old Sires List, with Group 1 winner WRITTEN BY flying the flag for him. His 2018 stud fee has consequently been raised to $110,000. His top performers include Group 1 winners CAPITALIST (STC Golden Slipper), LUNA ROSSA (Manawatu Sires Produce), MUSIC MAGNATE (Doomben Ten Thousand), TYCOON TARA (Tattersall s Tiara) and WRITTEN BY (MRC Blue Diamond). Written Tycoon s progeny have sold for up to $1 million and with an average winning distance of just over 1200m, they feature in top class sprint events around the country. WRITTEN TYCOON

Ara Star is a half sister to two multiple stakes performers, Miss With Attitude and Oui Si Attitude, and while both were by Classic distances sires (Galileo and Bianconi), they won as two-year-olds

3 Female Family The filly s dam Ara Star is a daughter of top broodmare sire, HUSSONET. His daughters have produced stakes winners including 22 Group 1 winners SHOALS, EXTREME CHOICE, LUCKY BUBBLES, LE KEN (Arg) and FURIA CRUZADA (Chi) to name a few. Ara Star is a half sister to two multiple stakes performers, Miss With Attitude and Oui Si Attitude, and while both were by Classic distances sires (Galileo and Bianconi), they won as two-year-olds and continued to improve from an early base. With Last Tycoon, Kenmare, Mr Prospector and Flying Spur as her great-grandsires, this filly is bred for speed. Further Pedigree Notes: The mating of Written Tycoon to a daughter of Hussonet is similar to the cross which produced Golden Slipper winner, CAPITALIST. Both are by Written Tycoon out of granddaughters of world influence, Mr Prospector, with Danehill also present through the second dam. The Filly is Very Similarly Bred to Gr1 Golden Slipper Winner CAPITALIST

The Trainer The filly will be trained by Jarrod Austin of Austin Racing Stables, Warwick Farm. Jarrod was a vital part of the selection process for this filly.

5 The Trainer The filly will be trained by Jarrod Austin of Austin Racing Stables, Warwick Farm. Jarrod was a vital part of the selection process for this filly. Great consideration was given not only to type, but also the compatibility of sire and dam as a pre-requisite to the short-listing of suitable types to inspect. With an aim to secure a well bred yearling at a realistic price, the team targeted the Magic Millions Adelaide sale. "I travelled to the Magic Millions Adelaide Sale to inspect and secure this filly as one on our shortlist. We were very keen to get a Written Tycoon, as his stock has performed well above their pedigrees and are outstanding athletic types. She is no exception and Jane tells me that she is also bred on a Group 1 producing cross." (Jarrod Austin) Jarrod and Champagne s Racing Manager Jane Henning with NAPOLEON s 2017 Hunter Cup trophy In the Sydney training ranks, Jarrod would be categorised as a 'boutique trainer', currently having a stable of about twenty horses in work. Jarrod's life long experience in the racing industry - including as a private trainer - met with instant success when he decided to establish himself as a public trainer. Commencing in 2011 with a 'handful' of horses, he achieved a Sydney city double including a stakes win in his first season, along with many city and provincial winners. Jarrod has enjoyed success with stakes horses such as TERRITORY, URQUIDEZ and SPINNAWITCH and has regularly been in the winners circle with members of his stable such as Raijinz, Kelvinside, Magnajoy, Hit The Mark, Napoleon, Blazing Beau, Manhattan Chic, Sophia s Charm, Carluca and Hirokin. Jarrod is now developing a team of well bred, promising two- and three-year-olds that should further enhance his win strike rate. Jarrod Austin has a decidedly hands on approach, with the philosophy that in order to realise each horse's best potential, it should be happy, healthy and fighting fit. They receive highly individual and specialised care which, combined with a dedicated professional team, patience and hard work, make up the key ingredients of Austin Racing's successful formula. While Jarrod s horses have every advantage with the training facilities at Warwick Farm, his reputation as a genuine horseman is widely known and consequently, the quality of his young stock has risen as he attracts the attention of owners and industry participants.
