With more racing at this time of year, the Sire table is changing but Kyllachy has established a big lead. Cape Cross and Pivotal, 2 past winners of the highest UK total are starting to get going after slow starts.
Kyllachy 44 Bahamian Bounty 33 Acclamation 32 Piccolo 32 Exceed and Excel 31 Bertolini 28 Oasis Dream 28 Danehill Dancer 27 Cape Cross 26 Compton Place 26 Dansili 26 Royal Applause 25 Pivotal 24
Acclamation getting loads of 2yo winners from that post champion first season sire crop and Lilbourne Lad looks smart, Aga Khan had a 2yo winner in France today by Acclamation (Lidaro), looks a stallion on the up

My senior moment I'm afraid. A winner at Thirsk on Tuesday got stuck in my brain. Acclamation is still having a good season and is now second in my sire table.

Just a few comparisons of second season sires that may be of interest. As usual figures are for UK flat winners in 2011 to date but in brackets are first season totals for all of 2010.
Ad Valorum 9 (6) Aussie Rules 13 (6) Diamond Green 6 (11) Holy Roamn Emperor 17 (20) Hurricane Run 14 (10) Iceman 22 (13) Ifraaj 20 (33) Kodiak 14 (26) Proclamation 8 (16) Sleeping Indian 11 (17)
Iceman is therefore the leading second season sire numerically.

Very satisfying outcome to the 4.55 at Salisbury today when Dead Cool by Kyllachy out of the lovely mare Dead Certain won cosily again. I know the connections and they have bred some nice horses from the mare. Salisbury is their local course and I look forward to her running there again soon.

Nice work re. 2nd season sire Sageform - not readily available. I had assumed I was just relying on my Virtual's looks (hes a monster) to sell but maybe his 3/4 bros not as bad as seemed. Strange profile mind - some need a trip and time, some (Fred Eng) very fast.
