Hailing from the first crop of a Gr.1 Champagne Stakes winning son of the Golden Slipper hero Capitalist, this handsome chestnut is a member of the thriving Written Tycoon sire line.
A sire line that fares particularly well with members of the Redoute's Choice sire line as this fellow's dam Rupavari is.
There have been 36 stakes winners with this Written Tycoon/Redoute's Choice combination (one which results in a cross of the famed matriarch Best In Show) with Velocious, Captured By Love, Private Life, Vibrant Sun and La Luna Rossa all successful at Gr.1 level.
And ten of those stakes winners are by Capitalist.
A lightly raced winner over a sprinting trip, Rupavari (whose sire Redoute's Choice is an outstanding broodmare sire influence - 176 stakes winners including 30 Gr.1 horses) is a proven broodmare whose first four foals are all winners.
Amongst that tally is the tough and consistent New Zealand galloper Lhasa who is currently racing in great heart, winning five races with his latest success just a few weeks ago.
Rupavari is a daughter of the high class mare Clean Sweep, winner of the Gr.1 NZ 2000 Guineas from a high class American family which has produced another Classic filly - the Gr.1 Kentucky Oaks heroine Gal In A Ruckus.
Soft Falling Rain, Sky Classic, Always A Classic, Regal Classic and Habibti are also big race winners from this family, one which has also fared well in Australia with the likes of Just Polite and So You Win winning stakes races.
