He will be getting some of these foals too ;)

Angus Gold of Shadwell Stud Australasia was the most active of all buyers, securing 11 yearlings for $5,410,000 ($3,574,331), including Arrowfield Stud's Redoute's Choice colt from Top Cuban, dam of group III winner Havana, for $1.5 million ($991,034). This is the family of U.S. grade I winners Slew City Slew and Weber City Miss.

It's a shame these well bred future stars are not going to realise their full potential.

A question for someone.
Why is it that the incubation period for AHS is 14 days,but it's a mind boggling journey of nearly 150 days from leaving SA to get to the stalls overseas.

makes no sense in any way to send the horse to SA. would rather send to UK and then to Dubai. But hey will be nice to see these horses run in SA,

Sportingpost has an article on American Sire El Prado, who is a son of Sadler Wells. El Prado is the sire of Kittens Joy who is the leading sire on Turf in North America who I keep mentioning. I think South Africa should get progeny of Kittens Joy....
