Encryption – OLD

BY A CHAMPION, OUT OF A CHAMPION

Encryption retired to stud sound and has everything breeders are searching for; pedigree, physicality and a performance to match. Winner of the Group 3 Black Opal Stakes at two, Group 2 Danehill Stakes at three and runner up in the Group 1 Oakleigh Plate, Encryption retired an earner of $743,500.

Arguably the most regally bred horse to stand in Queensland, Encryption is by Champion sire LONHRO and is the first foal out of the 4 x Group 1 winner and Champion 3YO Filly GUELPH (Exceed and Excel). The family has also produced the Golden Slipper winners CANNY LAD and SEPOY and the 2020 VRC Gr1 Newmarket winner BIVOUAC

A Group 3 winning 2YO and Flemington Group 2 Danehill Stakes 1200m winner as a 3YO, Encryption also finished second in the Group 1 Oakleigh Plate beaten under a length by BOOKER.

Encryption was black type placed as an early pre-Christmas 2YO, with placings in the Listed MRC Debutant Stakes and Group 3 VRC Maribyrnong Plate. As a model of consistency he then finished in the first four at 10 of his 19 starts, all at Stakes and Group level. He also finished 5th with oustanding run on performances in both the Group 1 Blue Diamond Stakes and Group 1 Coolmore Stud Stakes.

A STRONG START AT STUD

His first crop to race as 2YO's have already produced the Group 2 BRC Spirit of Boom Classic winner CIFRADO

Encryption enters his fifth year at stud in 2023 after covering four impressive books of over 120 mares in each of his first seasons. These books were strongly supported with mares from Eureka and Godolphin.
