    Looking at his stats, it would appear that his fertility could have been better
    He had better books when he was younger in NZ with 474 foals for 130 winners but only 1 topped $100k in NZ but see Oz stats below

    In Oz he had 251 foals but as mentioned in the earlier post, only 85 raced for 46 winners with his best Oz bred Mister Wickham who should pass $200k soon while his best NZ bred is Gaius Caesar who has won $550k and has converted to trotting at 10yrs of age!



    His brother CC's fertility fell away but with 1717 foals for 881 winners, he was a gem.
    Christen Me was arguably his best but Stunin Cullen was his millionaire

    I noticed that in Julius's four only race starts, all as a 2yo, he twice finished behind Roman Warrior who was one of Christian's top juveniles
    He ran second to that slouch Lennon in his other 2 starts
    What happened to Lennon - he never raced past 4yo?

    Lennon raced on. Never reached heights of 2-3yo campaign but was a handy FFA in Victoria before going the US.

    Think I recall reading Julius Caesar has poor fertility but can't quite be sure.
