Description

Aaron Bain Racing has purchased a Wild Ruler Colt out of Fu Ni from the 2025 Inglis Premier Yearling Sale Melbourne, 2025.

We chose to back this electric son of Snitzel as a stallion, with his progeny hitting the yearling sales for the first time this season. To win a Moir Stakes, you need to be built for speed and Wild Ruler had that in droves, leaving in his wake other exciting first season sires in Profiteer and Portland Sky. Wild Ruler was also a winner of the stallion making Roman Consul, with an honor roll including the likes of Zoustar, Fastnet Rock and Exceed & Excel. Peter Snowden proclaimed "I think he could be one of the better sprinters we've ever had" (The Australian Oct 13 2021). First yearlings have sold up to $380,000 and are turning up in Group 1 winning stables in multiple states.

This is the first foal of Fu Ni (by Adelaide), which was a three-time winner out of the breeding yard of our well regarded neighbours in Cornerstone Stud. Continuing the South Australian reference is the 2nd dam Demerger, a well-known winner almost $1million in prizemoney including the Adelaide Cup, Group 1 Matriarch Stakes and Group 3 Queens Cup and a host of other black type placings. Demerger was an excellent producer, having 7 foals to race, all winners and another with black type performance. The 3rd dam Triattica also boasts a near perfect record of 8 foals to race with 7 winners and along with Demerger there were multiple black type performances.

This colt has a lovely big frame to furnish into and we think the Angaston Hills will help achieve just that. A great acquisition at a great price.
