Lucky Vega (Ire) has enjoyed success this season Down Under with his first runners, and he will stand at Yulong for an increased fee of A$38,500, the farm announced on Sunday.
A winner of the G1 Phoenix Stakes and a resident at the Irish National Stud during the Northern Hemisphere breeding season, the bay son of Lope De Vega (Ire) already has the G2 Sweet Embrace Stakes heroine Within The Law (Aus) to run for him in Australia among his three winners. The shuttle stallion has also enjoyed positive sales results at the Inglis Melbourne Premier Sale (up to A$380,000), the Inglis Classic (A$340,000) and the Magic Millions (up to A$220,000).
“His yearlings across all sales this year have averaged A$150,000,” said Yulong's Harry King said of the horse whose fee increases from A$16,500 to A$38,500 (incl gst).
“His sales results having him knocking around with some of the best stallions in the country and his progeny have been bought by some of the best judges. We will continue to get behind him and we think the best is still to come.”
Yulong also released the rest of its 2025 roster and fees on Sunday, with stalwart Written Tycoon (Aus) remaining at a private fee, and American-based shuttle stallion More Than Looks priced at A$22,000.
