Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted November 13, 2018 Journalists Share Posted November 13, 2018 Bungle Inthejungle (GB) (Exceed and Excel {Aus}), whose current tally of 24 winners is joint-second only to No Nay Never on the first-season sires table, jumps to €12,000 next year at Rathasker Stud. He had stood at €5,000 his previous four years at stud. Bungle Inthejungle’s first crop includes a pair of stakes winners: the G3 Molecomb S. winner Rumble Inthejungle (Ire), and Italian listed winner Sopran Artemide (Ire). “Bungle Inthejungle exceeded expectations with his first crop of runners in 2018,” said Rathasker’s Maurice Burns. “When we purchased ‘Bungle’ he was said to be honest and tough, in Mick Channon’s words, ‘as brave as a lion’ and this characteristic has been passed on to each of his progeny–they have a will to win. We have watched each of his runners very closely and he not only physically stamps his stock but he gives them soundness of mind also–that battling attitude that stallion masters hope year- in-year-out their freshman sires can reproduce. For us Bungle Inthejungle has been a revelation, the way he upgrades his mares is palpable and thus, we really look forward to the future as his quality of mares improves. We believe that in time he can become a real force in the stallion ranks.” Rathasker also stands G2 July S. winner Anjaal (GB) (€5,000), whose first foals are two next year, and Clodovil (Ire) (€10,000), who has progeny earnings of over £13-million and 44% lifetime winners to runners.
