J U D D M O N T E | S TA L L I O N S 2 0 2 2
J U D D M O N T E S TA L L I O N S Last year, we celebrated Juddmonte’s landmark 40 years in thoroughbred breeding.
This year, we have sadly lost our founder and owner, Prince Khalid. On behalf of
Welcome
everyone who has worked for and with him at Juddmonte over the past 40 years,
we feel privileged to have played a small part in his passion for breeding and racing.
His contribution worldwide to the industry will stand the test of time: the outstanding
owner/breeder of this and perhaps any generation. He is greatly missed.
Poignantly, this is the year that FRANKEL is destined to become Champion Sire in GB
and IRE as well as Europe – the first time in 34 years that a British-based stallion has
been Champion Sire since Mill Reef in 1987, an achievement that would have given
Prince Khalid great pleasure and satisfaction. This was also the year that Frankel
became the fastest European-based stallion in the history of Pattern to sire 50
Northern Hemisphere-bred Group winners.
After what has been an extremely challenging 18 months for our industry, it was
tremendous to finally connect in person with our fellow breeders and friends this year
at some of our racecourse sponsorship events, on the stud and at the sales. There is
no doubt our sport is the richer for social engagement, closer interaction and sharing
our passion for the extraordinary thoroughbred.
The Juddmonte stallions’ statistics on an international level are noteworthy to say the
least, with a remarkable 154 Group winners between them to date.
KINGMAN’s runners have enjoyed tremendous results, achieving lifetime figures
of an outstanding 12% blacktype winners to runners. In 2021, internationally he has
sired three Group 1 winners on three continents, Palace Pier, Domestic Spending and
Schnell Meister, and 18 stakes winners in total.
In the sales ring, KINGMAN’s progeny shone through. At the Arqana August Yearling
Sale, his filly out of Needleleaf, a close relation to the unbeaten dual Group 1-winning
two-year-old Native Trail, consigned by Haras d’Haspel realised €950,000. His
daughter out of Finsceal Beo was the second highest-priced filly on Day 1 of the

PROGENY SUCCESS
Australia
Fresh success on the track alongside a continuing appeal
in the sales ring has all added up to another strong year for
Juddmonte stallions in the Southern Hemisphere.
FRANKEL’s stature grew yet further, thanks to Hungry
Heart who was named ‘Champion Australian
Three-Year-Old Filly’ in 2020-21. In the space
of two wonderful weeks last April, the Yulong
Investments homebred recorded back-to-back
Gr.1 triumphs in the Vinery Stud Stakes and the
Australian Oaks.
Converge was another Gr.1-winning 2YO who
excelled for Frankel ‘Down Under’, while his
filly Steinem was Gr.2-placed. OASIS DREAM’s
Turaath, bred by Shadwell, relocated to Australia
for her four-year-old season and was victorious in
the Gr.2 Let’s Elope Stakes at Flemington.
A sales highlight for Frankel came in May when his filly
out of Iiex Excelsa sold for A$530,000 at the Magic
Millions Gold Coast National Weanling Sale. Also in 2021,
the unbeaten champion’s three-parts brother Maximal
arrived on Australian shores during October. In an
exciting initiative, Maximal is now owned in partnership Hungry Heart

10AUSTRALIA | JUDDMONTE BREEDER INSIGHT Anthony Mithen Anthony Mithen’s passion for Frankel has extended beyond sending mares to the stallion at Banstead Manor. Geelong-based Rosemont Stud – where Mithen is principal – in 2021 secured a partnership with Juddmonte to race and then stand Frankel’s three parts brother Maximal. Trained by Sir Michael Stoute in 2020 and 2021, the Galileo colt out of Joyeuse (ex Kind) was fourth in the Gr.1 St James’s Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot and then second to Baaeed in the Sir Henry Cecil Stakes at Newmarket. Maximal has resumed racing with trainer John O’Shea in Australia, ahead of the second part of the plan which is for the horse to undertake stallion duties in Victoria at Rosemont Stud. “The Maximal project is one of the most exciting things we’ve done at Rosemont,” says Mithen. “It’s spine-tingling to think we have partnered with one of the global breeding giants on a horse with his profile, good looks, form and bloodlines. To be joined at the hip with Juddmonte on the three-quarters brother-in-blood to the mighty Frankel, to race him together into what will certainly be his finest season, and aim him at some of the big prestige and money races in Australia is simply incredible. I can’t thank trainer John O’Shea and his assistant Tom Charlton enough for helping pull this together and give Rosemont and our partners the opportunity to bring Maximal to Australia.” “I think if we can get him to show his best on the racetrack in Australia, breeders will have no choice but to fall in love with him. By the best stallion of this generation in Galileo, from an exceptional female pedigree, a light-on-his-feet medium-sized equine athlete – what more can you want. Oh, did I mention he’s a close relation to the best we’ve ever seen on the track, Frankel!” In recent times Rosemont have supported the Juddmonte stallion by sending mares to him at Banstead Manor. Mithen acknowledges that it’s a sizeable commitment and brings its fair share of challenges, but believes that the effort is well worthwhile. “There is always the underlying question for commercial breeders: will the market understand the horse that we have bred when it gets onto Australian shores? That said, when you can tap into the best bloodlines and centuries worth of breeding brilliance, the costs of getting a mare to the UK or buying one up there and exporting down-under pale into insignificance if your mission is to breed the best,” is Mithen’s take. “Juddmonte have been tremendous to deal with. Nothing seems too hard and I have appreciated the banter and information swap between the sales team and myself, especially with Shane Horan. Would you believe, we randomly met leaning on the running rail together about to watch a race at Randwick several years ago. We got chatting and turned out we were destined to do some business.”

BREEDER INSIGHT
Philippa Cooper, Normandie Stud
For Philippa Cooper there was a special poignancy to Hurricane Lane’s magnificent victory
in the 2021 renewal of the Grand Prix de Paris.
On a summer’s evening at Longchamp, her Normandie Stud-bred Frankel colt out of Gale
Force gave one of those superlative displays that really defines a top-notch Group 1-quality
performer. In seemingly effortless fashion, Hurricane Lane backed up his Irish Derby win
with a six-length triumph. Those are the facts that will stand indelible in the history book,
but it was the personal details that served to intensify the emotions for Cooper last July.
“It was the story behind Longchamp, the story of my youth. I went to a French school, the
French Lycée in London and studied French at university,” explains Cooper, who would
become a French teacher.
“My father loved racing. When we used to go to France, to Paris, we’d go racing…
Longchamp, Maisons-Laffitte, Chantilly on the Sundays in July. It was the time of Yves Saint-
Reina Madre Martin. So, when Hurricane Lane won at Longchamp it meant a tremendous amount to me,
just like when Duncan won the Prix Foy. We seem to have this thing that we continually

won Prix Imprudence, 7f, Deauville Gr.3
Bred by Paddy Burns
Cooper sums it succinctly: “It’s all stories,” – and her own is remarkable. Normandie Stud
(that French connection again!) was established with one mare in 1997 and has become
a hugely-respected entity with the focus very much on quality rather than quantity. At the
moment Cooper has 13 mares.
Over the years a strong alliance has been forged with Juddmonte. Indeed, in 2012
Cooper’s homebred Fallen For You (Dansili ex Fallen Star) gave both parties a huge thrill
with victory in the Group 1 Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot. “I really liked Dansili because
I’d watched him in the Breeders’ Cup and he so nearly won,” she recalls. “For me, it’s so
much about seeing the racehorses and being swept away. He was an owner-breeder’s
stallion.”
In 2021, Cooper didn’t just have one Frankel colt to enjoy as a proud breeder, but two

Group-placed in the Nell Gywn Stakes, before meeting with a setback. “I had 10 – six
boys, four fillies. 33.33 per cent were Group horses,” is Cooper’s proud assessment of the
achievements recorded by Normandie’s 2018 foals.
The future looks just as bright with Cooper especially excited about three Kingman fillies
that will turn two for 2022. They are out of Fallen For You, French Dressing and Fleur
Forsyte and she has kept them all with the future in mind. “I really should have sold one or

BREEDER INSIGHT
Kirsten Rausing, Lanwades Stud
The ‘A-L family’, as Kirsten Rausing refers to it, is admired by many and runs deep in quality.
And in 2021 it received yet another upgrade, thanks to Alpinista.
A fourth-generation homebred from Miss Rausing’s Lanwades Stud, the daughter of
Frankel delivered a hat-trick of German Group 1 victories. One of those wins came in the
Preis von Europa in Cologne, a Group 1 that her grand-dam Albanova also landed some 17
years earlier. A neat nod to history, indeed.
Naturally, Alpinista’s progression as a four-year-old has delighted Miss Rausing. But it
came as no major shock to the owner-breeder or trainer Sir Mark Prescott, based on the
evidence of those generations that had preceded the filly.
“This branch of the ‘A-L’ family does mature,” explains Miss Rausing. “Not that it’s maturing
slowly because Alpinista was a winner as a two-year-old on her debut (at Epsom, in July
Grocer Jack 2019), beating colts. But it maintains progress, so I was always fairly confident in Sir Mark’s
appraisal of the whole thing. We were not so surprised.”
2017 c OASIS DREAM - Good Donna (Doyen)

good, or better, than the mare. That narrowed the field considerably.
“Everything has been said about Frankel. But I think one thing I could say about him is
that he was a world-class racehorse and, frankly, is now the emerging prime heir to his
legendary sire.”

at the Goffs Orby Sale would go on to become the then freshman sire’s third Group winner (after Visit and Young
Bred by Rockhart Trading Ltd Pretender).
“She is still very much working away and is grand dam (through Lanwades’ homebred
Seychelloise) of this year’s good two-year-old Sandrine, a dual Group winner,” outlines Miss
Rausing, who has also bred two other Group winners by Oasis Dream – Lady Jane Digby
(Group 1) and Shine So Bright (Group 2).
“It goes both ways, I’m glad to say,” she adds. “I’ve also very much appreciated
Juddmonte’s support of my stallions. In particular Selkirk, from whom they bred the 1000
Guineas winner Wince, Kirkwall (multiple Group winner), Cityscape (Dubai Duty Free
winner) and Orford Ness (Group 3 winner) amongst others. So we’ve had long and fruitful
cooperation. I’m delighted that we’ve had such success both ways.”

PROGENY SUCCESS
Japan
Japanese interest in FRANKEL has been
there since his early days as a stallion.
Indeed, his first ever Gr.1 winner came
in Hanshin in 2016, courtesy of the
2YO filly Soul Stirring. She went on
to become his first Classic heroine,
landing the Japanese Oaks in Tokyo
the following year. His first crop was
notable, too, for Mozu Ascot, who won at
the highest level in Japan in both 2018 and 2020
over a mile on turf and dirt.
Frankel’s son Grenadier Guards was also a 2YO Gr.1 victor at Hanshin
late in 2020 but he had to settle for third place behind KINGMAN colt
Schnell Meister in the Gr.1 2021 NHK Mile Cup in Tokyo.
Kingman’s appeal is ever-increasing in Japan where his
reputation received another boost through the Gr.2-winning
filly Elizabeth Tower. And demand for Frankel was
underlined by his lone foal in the JRHA Select Sale
2021. The colt bred by Northern Farm realised
¥240million, equivalent to £1,571,566.
“To raise the level of racing in Japan to a higher level in
the long term, refreshing or varying the pedigrees will be
essential. And I believe the key to achieve that is having Elizabeth Tower

“One of the ways to achieve this is to win big international races such as the Arc,

having access to stallions like Frankel and Kingman.”
“In order to do so, we will need to breed the best, most competitive horses in Japan.
And as for Northern Farm’s basic objective, that’s simple: to keep achieving.
And we are always seeking that opportunity by purchasing high-quality mares and
breeding them with the best stallions such as Frankel and Kingman.”
“We hope the success will continue, and our farm will be as good as it can be in the
next 100 years,” sums up Hashimoto.
In recent times, the strategy has been rewarded with Northern Farm’s homebred
Grade 1-winning colts Grenadier Guards (ex Wavell Avenue) and Schnell Meister
(ex Serienholde). Wavell Avenue, a Grade 1 Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Sprint (Dirt)
winner, was sent to Frankel in 2017 – the same year that Group 1 German Oaks
heroine Serienholde was mated to Kingman.
“We had been visiting Juddmonte for decades and we know not only the high
quality of the stallions but also all the high standard of the workers, stables,
pastures,” explains Hashimoto. “So in terms of sending the highest-quality mares
that we own, it was not a difficult decision to make.
“We were really excited when we purchased Wavell Avenue and we wanted to
breed (her) to the best stallion, so in 2017 we sent her to Frankel. For Serienholde,
since she was a winner of the Preis der Diana, we thought she had great stamina
and we wanted speed, so we wanted her to be covered by Kingman. Those were
the specific reasons for those two mares.”
In December 2020, Grenadier Guards won the Grade 1 Futurity at Hanshin. In May,
2021 he was narrowly beaten into third by none other than Schnell Meister in the
Grade 1 NHK Mile Cup in Tokyo.
Those results are satisfying in their own right for Northern Farm. But what makes
them especially valuable for the future is that, in Japan where Sunday Silence has
ruled supreme for so many years, the two colts will offer new opportunities for
breeders.
