5 times the $19,400 Service Fee at conception time.

As a hot young stallion, demand from breeders is at unprecedented levels.
The final five nominations to the fully booked stallion were auctioned online via the Inglis Digital Everyday Auctions platform over a period of five weeks.
Following his early popularity, the market further endorsed their interest in Written Tycoon when bidding an
average of 17.25% over the $49,500 advertised service fee to secure one of these elusive (but available) nominations.
(1) The first nomination was sold for $56,000 by Glenlogan Park who will stand the Group 1 performed son of Written Tycoon, Rich Enuff this year.
Glenlogan Park's General Manager Steve Morley said "We have been a big supporter and fan of Written Tycoon for a sometime, which is why we had to buy into Rich Enuff and why we had to secure a nomination for this year."
(2) After strong competition from a variety of bidders during the late stages of the second online auction, the second nomination was secured for $60,000 by Victorian-based breeding and racing operation Three Fillies Lodge.
"We recently purchased a lovely young mare off the track and wanted to give her the best possible chance to succeed as a broodmare as well, so we are delighted we are now able to send her to one of the best proven stallions in Australia."
(3) The third nomination was purchased for $60,500 by Balance Thoroughbreds, a boutique breeder from NSW.
Woodside Park Stud's Matt Tillett commented "Michael Hadley (Balance Thoroughbreds) was the under bidder on the previous two nominations, so we are very thankful and excited to be doing business with him."
(4) The fourth nomination was obtained by a breeder from NSW for $59,500. Tillet said, "She is thrilled to be breeding another Written Tycoon this year, as she has a very valuable Group placed Written Tycoon filly who is currently in foal to New Zealand's leading sire Tavistock."
(5) The fifth and final nomination was purchased by Iranian-based interests for $53,500.
"The buyer had contacted me a number of times from Iran about Written Tycoon just after we had to close his book. The auction platform worked perfectly as it provided him a means of securing the nomination he wanted," said Tillett.
"The best thing that we achieved (Woodside Park) from the exercise however was the exposure to a new range of clients, as only one of the five successful bidders was a previous client of ours. We are delighted that the five online nominations
averaged $58,000 because it proves to us, that the market truly values our stallion (Written Tycoon) as highly as we do," remarked Tillett.
The Everyday Auctions platform is the newest addition to the online services offered by Inglis Digital.
Inglis Digital's business manager Nick Melmeth said "They (Woodside Park) entrusted us with a very important task and we are extremely happy that we could achieve such an outstanding result for them. It also shows that the thoroughbred community is willing to embrace new concepts that complement the traditional sale formats."
