Yulong Purchase $400,000 Written By Colt

Blue Diamond winner Written By is set to have his first Golden Slipper runner in the shape of the Yulong owned colt Straight Charge and his success no doubt inspired Yulong to pay $400,000 at Inglis Premier this week for another colt by promising young sire son of their champion sire Written Tycoon.

Consigned by Northmore Thoroughbreds the colt is the fourth foal from Stay Positive, a winning half-sister to stakes-placed Spirited Eagle and also to the dam of Group I BRC Stradbroke Handicap winer Tyzone, who is by Written Tycoon. It’s a quality family with Group I winners Irish Fling and Final Destination also on the page.

Written By had four yearlings average $185,000 offering a great return on his $24,750 service fee in 2021.
