Black Caviar's eighth foal will share the same birthday as his legendary mother after his safe delivery on Friday.
The undefeated sprinter produced her third colt when foaling down a youngster by Arrowfield stallion The Autumn Sun.
He was born on August 18, the same date that Black Caviar – a daughter of Bel Esprit and Helsinge – was foaled 17 years earlier.
The Autumn Sun colt was Black Caviar's first foal since her Written Tycoon filly – who is known as Persian Caviar – two years ago, having failed to get in-foal after visits to I Am Invincible and Extreme Choice in between.
The best-performed of her raced stock is Invincible Caviar, who has won four of eights starts, while three of her four others to race are all winners.
