The leading sire of Winners in the World in 2025, reigning Champion Australian Sire ZOUSTAR makes his presence felt in many ways. We saw that again over the weekend with a pair of stakes-winners in the Northern Hemisphere and here in Australia, he got his first G1 Winner as a Broodmare sire.
On Friday at Meydan in Dubai, Zoustar colt Brotherly Love staked a claim for the Kentucky Derby when winning the Listed Dubai Road to the Kentucky Derby Stakes (1m 1½ f 1750m) on the dirt.
Then overnight in the UK, his five-year-old mare Sky Safari put in a career best performance to win the G3 Winter Derby Stakes (1m2f 2000m) on the all-weather surface at Lingfield.
Trained by James Fanshawe and ridden by Daniel Muscutt, Sky Safari won by a neck and is now a two-time stakes-winner with the overall record of seven wins from 11 starts.
Mares by Zoustar will be the premium producers of the future, and he is already sire of the dam of four stakes-winners with Saturday’s G1 MRC Blue Diamond Stakes winner Streisand the latest on the list.
A talented filly by former Widden Stud Victoria stalwart sire Magnus, Streisand was purchased for $100,000 at Inglis Premier.
Streisand has won $1.5 million and is the best of two winners from winning Zoustar mare Zouper Star, who has been a regular visitor to Widden sires and has a yearling colt by Star Witness to be offered at Inglis Premier in the Newhaven Park draft and a colt born last spring by Nicconi.
Our Filly by ZOUSTAR x SITEKI with Annabel & Rob Archibald
Anticipating the developing trend we were observing in 2025 would continue as has been outlined above, Dynamic Syndications purchased a yearling filly by Zoustar ex Siteki (Lot 815) at the Magic Millions.

Inglis CEO Sebastian Hutch states: “Zoustar is the sire of more Stakes winners and more Gr.1 winners than any other stallion over the past two seasons.”
Our Yearling Filly is incredibly well bred.
She has a sensational black-type pedigree supporting magnificent conformation.
A key here is that this filly is the mare’s first foal and another is that the genetics of the mating cross works well.
SITEKI is a half-sister to five winners but most importantly, two (2) are Gr1 winning fillies. One a Gr1 winner of the MRC Oakleigh Plate 1100m whilst the other is the Gr1 winner of the VRC Oaks 2500m:
MARABI (f I Am Invincible). 7 wins in succession at 1100m, 1200m, $966,475, MRC Oakleigh P., Gr.1, MVRC Australia S., Gr.2, MRC Christmas S., L, MVRC Independent Turf Services H., Sally Bruten Memorial H., Ballarat TC A Grade Sheds H.

What a page!
Champion sire ZOUSTAR needs no introduction.
We highlighted the most recent feats of ZOUSTAR above, and the Champion Sire goes from strength to strength.
Sire of 76 stakes winners including 11 Gr1 winners, in 2023 he stood at a Service Fee of $220,000 the year of conception of our filly and that rose to $275,000 in 2025.
At the Magic Millions Sale, he had 20 yearlings sell at an average $478,750 in a range of $130,000 to $900,000.
The filly we purchased was offered by Gerry Harvey under his Baramul Stud banner.
She was the 4th yearling we purchased from "Uncle Gerry" at the sales.
Genetically this is another strong mating cross with a rating score of
A++ 1,633%.
The filly has a terrific presence, and we were captivated by her easy action, and the fluid movement of the filly as she walked along with a propulsion delivering a tremendous overstep.
With her great looks matching a great page, her value as a broodmare will be assured, and if she delivers on the expectations and earns black-type, her value could well be astronomical.
This is a play for the "serious bloodstock enthusiast."
Type, Page, Residual, Commercial, this is the filly for those harbouring Aspirational dreams.
Dynamic signed for 9 high quality yearlings each with terrific pedigrees, and type that make each extremely desirable for their individual reasons.
It was a tough sale overall to buy quality at true value. With the average settling at $272,725, up on the 2025 year, and the median remaining at $200,000 it was the strong middle market that rallied hard, and that overall clearance of 86.3% was high. We were able to shop for all budgets without any compromise to class.
We purchased this filly by Zoustar for $250,000 + GST.
Disappointingly for some, this filly is not being promoted to the public.
She had been retained 100% in house for private placement among exiting owners.
We have elected to give this filly to Annabel and Rob Archibald to be trained at Warwick Farm.
We had spoken prior to the sale and Lot 815 was highly desirable on both our lists.
Instead of bidding against one another, Dynamic Syndications would buy the filly, and Annabel and Rob would train her for us.
After we purchased the filly, Rob asked could they buy half (50%) with us as they loved the filly and naturally with that committment we happily agreed.
We only have 10% available to join the co-ownership. The other 40% is already reserved. We had intended to retain this 10% until later in the year, but after another solid weekend of success for ZOUSTAR our existing owners deserve to know about the filly now, before she was fully committed.
If you wish to know more about our ZOUSTAR Filly contact Adam as soon as possible to reserve your place on 0409 464 378 or office on 02 9540 1511 or email to adam@dynamicsyndications.com.au
We reiterate this is a "Private OFF MARKET Placement of Shares" and only available to Dynamic Syndications Owners.
