MUSCLE HILL x COURTNEY HALL
E L TITAN
A son of the incomparable Muscle Hill, E L Titan was a world-class performer from the outset, competing at the highest level throughout his career. As a two and three-year-old he claimed prestigious victories including the International Stallion Stakes, Madison County Trot, Carl Erskine Trot and Galt Memorial, while placing in the Breeders Crown, Canadian Trotting Classic and American National Stakes against North America's elite. His combination of speed, strength and consistency saw him earn more than $700,000, establishing himself as one of the premier sons of Muscle Hill to retire to stud.
E L Titan is backed by one of North America's most accomplished maternal families. His dam, Courtney Hall, was a Bluegrass Stakes winner and produced ten winners, including the stakes performers El Ideal, Appomattox, E L Rock and E L Rocket, making this one of the breed's most prolific families. At stud, E L Titan has firmly established himself as a proven sire, producing more than 160 winners in North America with over $16 million in progeny earnings. His offspring are headed by performers such as Southwind Avenger, Platinum AS, Hayek and Super Duper Cooper, while his influence continues to grow in Australasia through a high percentage of winners to runners. Combining the legendary Muscle Hill sire line with a proven maternal pedigree, E L Titan offers breeders a stallion with both elite genetics and an outstanding record of producing performers.

What TRAINERS ARE SAYING
“She had a lovely natural gait and that’s carried into her breaking preparation.
She’s bold, strong and keen to learn, and most importantly she just trots.
E L Titan seems to be leaving some lovely types - striking individuals with a lot of things to like about them.”
— Jess Tubbs, Australian Trainer
Jess Tubbs purchased a $40,000 YDF-bred filly out of Norquay at the Sydney Nutrien Equine Sale, saying she was first impressed in the paddock at Yabby Dam Farms.
“I really liked this E L Titan from the first day I saw her at Yabby Dam. E L Titans can all trot and they are fast, easy going horses.
They’re doing a really good job at the moment in North America.
Hopefully a strong French family will bring some stamina for her and we will have some fun with her in the future.”
— Antti Ruokonen, Australian Trainer
Antti Ruokonen secured a filly out of French-bred mare Falaise Madrik for $30,000 at the Melbourne Nutrien Equine Sale.
“I’m super impressed with the E L Titans.
Clients bought the colt in NZ and I was that impressed we had to buy another filly in Melbourne.
They’re very smart and easy horses.
I can’t wait for this time next year.”
— Nathan Jack, Australian Driver & Trainer
Nathan Jack purchased multiple E L Titan yearlings, including a NZ$50,000 colt out of Reina Danzante and a $70,000 filly out of Cyclone Jeter.
