“Not only does his record speak for itself, only being out of the money on three occasions, and pacing two of his last runs in 1:47, his pedigree and pure presence is outstanding. He is one of those horses who immediately takes your eye, and his beautiful nature makes him a pleasure to work with” said Luke McCarthy from Cobbitty Equine Farm.
Luke’s brother Andy McCarthy who had the pleasure of driving him ranked him on top of all the two year old pacing colts he has driven, stating “once you ask him to go he gives you goose bumps”.
Make sure you get in contact with the team at Cobbity Equine today and secure your booking to avoid disappointment. He is filling up fast and will almost certainly serve a full book of mares with his fresh semen options in Australia and New Zealand.
Capt Midnight progeny will also be eligible for the two $100,000 Cobbity Equine Classic features for progeny of their stallions as well as being NSW Bred and NZ Sires Stakes eligible giving breeders a raft of opportunities when their future stars hit the track.
