Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted April 19, 2018 Journalists Share Posted April 19, 2018 Coolmore stallion Magician (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}-Absolutelyfabulous {Ire}, by Mozart {Ire}) will relocate from Ashford Stud to Coolmore’s Castlehyde Stud in Cork next month. The G1 Irish 2000 Guineas winner’s eldest crop are now 2-year-olds and his covering fee has been set at €7,500. Magician’s yearlings sold quite well last autumn; he had six sell for an average of 67,333gns and a top price of 210,000gns which was for a colt out of Perfect Step (Ire) (Iffraaj {GB}), bought by Amanda Skiffington on behalf of Coolmore at Tattersalls Book 2 from Kilminfoyle House Stud. Castlehyde manager John Kennedy is looking forward to the stallion joining the likes of Holy Roman Emperor (Ire) and Starspangledbanner (Aus) and said, “The Magician colt out of Perfect Step has been earning very positive reports from Ballydoyle so it makes sense to bring Magician back to Ireland. He also has first crop 2-year-olds with British-based trainers Richard Fahey, Charlie Hills, Peter Chapple-Hyam, David Simcock and Charlie Fellowes.” View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
