Lot 98 – A Written Tycoon filly
Mike bought Lot 98, a filly by Written Tycoon (AUS – already the sire of 12 G1 winners) out of Sarraqa (Snitzel), who is an unraced daughter of champion race- and broodmare, National Colour, herself a half-sister to Rafeef and Mustaaqueem. See pedigree below and headline photo, above.

Speaking on his website from Melbourne, Mike said: “They are exciting specimens that I was fortunate to buy at this top sale. Our first partner is Larry Nestadt, our-long time supporter and friend in South Africa and also a staunch patron of my son Mathew in Australia. We’re looking for other partners to take shares with us. Both will be going into training with Mat and Robbie Griffiths at Cranbourne.”
