The coveted share in star stallion Zoustar has sold on Inglis Digital for $1.1m on Wednesday in a sale that values Widden Stud's headliner at a eye-watering $66m.
Boomer Bloodstock, for an unnamed client, forked out the seven-figure sum for the 1/60th share offered by Qatar Bloodstock following days of bidding for the Group 1 winner sprinter turned super sire.

Bidding for the rare share was already at $820,000 on the final day of the online sale with 20 bids made for a slice of the stallion.
Qatar Bloodstock sold a similar 1/60th share last year for $1.3m to Bangaloe Stud.
Zoustar stands for one of the highest fees of any stallion in Australia at $275,000 this season alongside Godolphin's Too Darn Hot while Newgate's Extreme Choice ($330,000) is the benchmark.
Zoustar is expected to cover around 150 mares during the 2025 breeding season with Boomer Bloodstock's share ensuring they will get a portion of the income.
A sire of 65 stakes winners, Zoustar has produced Group 1 winners Zougotcha Joliestar, Climbing Star and Schwarz in recent times.
