BOBS bonuses have been a huge success for Racing NSW adding considerable bang for buck to NSW racehorse owners and the Newgate sires certainly made their mark last season.
Newgate Farm’s Capitalist has become a prolific source of winners and particularly in NSW with his progeny racking up 56 wins to accumulate $466,875 in BOBS bonuses to lead champion sires Snitzel, I Am Invincible and Zoustar. Some of Capitalist’s most successful BOBS horses were Token Capitalist and Lucky Variety.
A Champion Golden Slipper winning 2YO by Written Tycoon, Newgate based Capitalist sired 140 winners last season and is the youngest stallion in the Top 10 Australian Sires by winners for 2022/2023 and was also leading third crop sire by winners and stakes-winners.
