Renowned the world over, More Than Ready is the BEST sire of winners the world has ever seen. He has sired more than 2051 winners. The only other stallion in history to tally over 1600 winners is Danehill, who sits on 1623 winners.
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.
More Than Ready is also the most shuttled stallion in the world. He is the only stallion on the all-time Top 10 Sires list by Stakes winners who is available in Australia. He is currently sitting 5th with 194 individual Stakes winners.
His 2019 yearlings sold to $600,000, $550,000, $500,000, $400,000, $360,000 etc. and have joined the stables of Gai Waterhouse, Hawkes Racing, Yu Long Investments, Sun Bloodstock, Lindsay Park Racing, Aquis Farms Pty Ltd, JHB Syndications, Hermitage Thoroughbreds, and Ciaron Maher Bloodstock etc.
In 2022 More Than Ready’s last crop of southern hemisphere-sired yearlings go under the hammer. His statistics as a sire of quality winners to the highest level, as a sire of sires and as a leading broodmare sire mean that you should not miss your opportunity to get your hands on one of his last sons or daughters in the new year!
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 of racing age.
