Dual Group 1 winner Zoustar had a small amount of his shares sold for $1.3 million in an auction by Inglis Digital on Wednesday.
Bangaloe Stud snagged the 1.6% stake after a bidding war with the share originally offered by Qatar Bloodstock.
Zoustar, a stallion with a $275,000 stud fee, mated with 155 mares in 2023, solidifying his status as one of the most sought-after stallions in the breeding industry.
The Inglis Digital advertisement highlighted why breeders and investors would be keen to invest in this stallion through auction for the first time.
This sale marks a milestone in recognising Zoustar’s value, with horses like Sunlight, Zougotcha, and Zoutori branching from the 13-year-old stallion.
