Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted December 7, 2023 Journalists Posted December 7, 2023 Shadai Stallion Station has set the introductory fee for Equinox (Jpn) at ¥20 million (€124,000), which is equal to his own sire Kitasan Black (Jpn), whose price has been doubled for 2024. Father and son are the two most expensive stallions on Shadai's 33-strong roster. The Shadai website already has a 'Book full' note posted alongside the name of Equinox, who retires to stud as the top-rated horse in the world in 2023. The four-year-old has won eight of his ten starts and signed off with a facile victory in the Japan Cup over the Fillies' Triple Crown winner Liberty Island (Jpn) ((Duramente {Jpn}). This season's leading first-season sire in Japan, Suave Richard (Jpn), has also had his fee increased for next year to ¥15 million (€93,000). The same fee will be commanded in 2024 by his stud-mates Epiphaneia (Jpn) and the Triple Crown winner Contrail (Jpn). The latter is another who is already fully booked for next season.
