Proisir's sire Choisir continues to sire top class racehorses in both hemispheres with the Chris Munce-trained Champ Elect (pictured) the latest winning Saturday's Calaway Gal Stakes (Listed, 1110m) at Doomben.
Unbeaten in two starts, the $95,000 Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale purchase beat Make My Own Luck (Bradbury's Luck) by a short neck.
The victory also provided Encosta De Lago (Fairy King) with his 58th stakes winner as a broodmare sire. The now pensioned sire is the leading broodmare sire in Australia by both earnings and winners.
