“Fountain of Youth was all speed which is not surprising considering how fast his parents were. His form over 5 furlongs was excellent. At 2 he won his maiden by 4 lengths and was beaten less than a length in the Windsor Castle Stakes at Royal Ascot while at 3 he beat older horses in the Sapphire Stakes-Gr.3 at the Curragh.” Aidan O’Brien | ||||||||||||||||
|
“Fountain Of Youth’s progeny have a strong potential of inheriting a superior combination of performance-related genes, and at least fifty per cent of them will be earlier-maturing C:C sprint types.” Equinome Ltd. | ||||||||||||||||

His first crop of foals sold for up to 45,000gns | ||||||||||||||||
