A share in the stallion in the box seat to be crowned Champion First-Season Sire is a late addition to next week's Magic Millions National Sale on the Gold Coast.

A one-hundredth share in Ole Kirk has been made available, with the share to be offered at the start of Tuesday's first day of selling at the National Broodmare Sale.

The share entitles the buyer to one service right each stud season plus a share of income in the Vinery Stud stallion, who leads the first-season sire premiership by almost $400,000 and will this year stand at a fee of $99,000, including GST.

"This represents a great opportunity in a young stallion that we have always believed in and who is now demonstrating how important to our industry he could be," Vinery bloodstock manager Adam White said of the rising eight-year-old.

"This horse is fully booked for the coming season and I'm sure there are many breeders out there that will identify the chance to utilise a young stallion on the way up."

Ole Kirk has enjoyed a dream first season with 111 winners from 22 starters, including late Group 3 Breeders Plate winner King Kirk and the unbeaten Legacy Bound, plus $3 million Magic Millions 2YO Classic winner O'Ole.

His is one of three stallion shares to be offered on Tuesday morning, following shares in Darley stallion Bivouac and Newgate's Capitalist.
