Renowned the world over, More Than Ready is the BEST sire of winners the world has ever seen. He sired more than 2297 winners. The only other stallion in history to tally over 1600 winners was Danehill, who sits on 1623 winners.
More Than Ready was also the most shuttled stallion in the world.
Speaking of Danehill, More Than Ready is the perfect outcross for Danehill line mares. In fact, it’s a nick that clicks very well as evidenced by PRIZED ICON, MORE JOYOUS, SEBRING, PERFECTLY READY, MORE THAN SACRED, BENICIO etc.
After doing such remarkable things in both hemispheres as a sire, his legacy now lives on through the deeds of his broodmare daughters.
“Craig Rousefell is ‘a huge fan’ of Ready To Rule’s sire More Than Ready, who also represents Written Tycoon’s third-best nick, with 31 runenrs for 25 winners and three at Stakes level, including Southport Tycoon and Coolangatta.” – Trevor Marshallsea, ANZ Bloodstock News.
In 2022 More Than Ready’s last crop of southern hemisphere-sired yearlings sold up to $510k, $425k, $400k etc.
He’s sired Golden Slipper, Blue Diamond, Sires’ Produce Stakes, Champagne Stakes, Breeders’ Cup Juvenile, Victoria Derby and Magic Millions Classic winners and is the sire of 70 individual 2yo Stakes winners inc. 2 new Australian juvenile Stakes winners in 2019, KOOWEERUP & READY SET SAIL. Since the beginning of 2020 he’s sired 7 juvenile Stakes winners and 13 juvenile Stakes performers, led by New Zealand’s Gr.2 winner LA VERNAZZA.
This incredible, world record holding sire has a worldwide winners-runners strike rate of 72.4% across his 36 crops.
