Australasia's star sire Extreme Choice (Aus) (Not A Single Doubt {Aus}–Extremely (Aus), by Hussonet), will have his services made available to breeders in the 2023 Northern Hemisphere breeding season, Newgate Farm announced Sunday. Already the sire of a champion 2-year-old and a Classic-winning 3-year-old, Extreme Choice is currently the leading sire in the Southern Hemisphere by both stakes winners to runners and Group 1 winners to runners. He also already has three high profile sons at stud from only 30 colts to have ever raced to date.
“There is no question that Extreme Choice is a very rare commodity and one of the best young sires on the planet,” said Newgate Managing Director, Henry Field. “It is no secret that his fertility and libido are sub-optimal and as such, in order to make the most out of this extraordinary young sire, the decision has been made to breed with him Northern Hemisphere time. In a market that is buying a very high number of Northern Hemisphere-bred horses annually for significant sums of money, we feel the market is mature enough to really get behind this concept. So good a sire is Extreme Choice that I envisage that he'll be capable of siring elite Royal Ascot 2-year-old winners for those that choose to send his progeny to the Northern Hemisphere to race. For those that choose to grow out the progeny in Australia and race them as 3-year-olds and beyond, they will have a massive opportunity to participate in the same races that we have seen so many Northern Hemisphere-bred horses taste success in over the past few years.”
Extreme Choice will stand the Northern Hemisphere breeding season at Newgate Farm in Australia. For further information, contact the Newgate Bloodstock Team.
