* 59 Black-type horses

*3 CHAMPION 2YOS - FANTASTIC MOON - Joint Champion 2yo colt in 2022 - WONDERFUL MOON IN 2019 - NOBLE MOON IN 2018

"SEA THE MOON has the highest APEX A Runner index (3.13) of any European second-crop sire, a group which also includes KINGMAN, NO NAY NEVER and AUSTRALIA.  He has just the one Group 2 winner to date, but his first crop are just about to become 4yos.  We look for SEA THE MOON to have a breakout year in 2020, so we think his 2020 stud fee of £15,000 is excellent value; in fact, he is our number European value sire for 2020" Bill Oppenheim… December 2019
