Stud Comments
Australasian breeders are in a position that mare owners the world over are envious of, they have access to Bel Esprit the sire of the world’s highest rated racehorse and highest ever rated sprinter Black Caviar.Off the back of Black Caviar’s once in a lifetime achievements Bel Esprit has ascended into the top ten of the General Sires List for Earnings. However it is the combined efforts of his progeny that have seen Bel Esprit join the elite club of stallions siring over 100 individual winners in the racing year. This accomplishment places him firmly in the top ten on the General Sires List for Winners also.
Bel Esprit has a terrific overall strike rate 62% Winners to Runners and his progeny have nearly earned $7 Million for 2010/2011 season.
Bel Esprit was one of the best 2YOs of his generation, winning 5 of his 6 starts including the Gr.1 Blue Diamond. At 3YO, he won the Gr.1 Doomben 10,000 against the older horses cementing himself as one of the best sprinters of his time. He finished his racing career with eight wins and over $2m in prize money.
Bel Esprit is by the Champion Stallion Royal Academy, the sire of an incredible 159 stakes winner. His progeny have earned in excess of $145m in prize money. From the limited number of his sons to go to stud four are proven Gr.1 sires.
Out of a Vain mare, like Champion Sire Centaine, Bel Esprit comes from an outstanding family. His dam, Bespoken is a half-sister to the Gr.1 winner Mahaasin and his granddam Vin D'Amour, the Champion 2yo in Australasia of her time.
Horses the like of Black Caviar are seldom born but Bel Esprit has shown he has the ability to sire a true champion. This is an outstanding quality to possess but his sire consistency is equally as impressive. In the last week alone Bel Esprit has produced another stakes winner in Work The Room and unearthed another serious sprinter in Bel Sprinter. For all of these reasons Bel Esprit is worthy of the attention of mare owners across Australasia.
