For the 2022 breeding season Juddmonte will be utilising over 30 different stallions, with the home roster getting its usual strong support.

Frankel’s book includes the Group and Listed winners Alocasia (half-sister to G2 winner Set Piece), Capla Temptress (G1 winner), Classical Times (half-sister to Newspaperofrecord), Environs (half-sister to Frankel’s G3 winning son Delaware), Grand Jete, Soffia, Starformer and Winsili. 

He is also covering the proven producers Bird Flown (dam of G1 winner Siskin), Portodora (dam of the aforementioned Alocasia and Set Piece), Ruscombe (dam of Frankel’s Listed winning daughter Petricor, who is now in training with Bill Mott) and Scuffle (dam of Logician).

Kingman had another stellar season in 2021 – Palace Pier, Schnell Meister and Domestic Spending winning six G1 races between them – and he will be represented by over 190 beautifully-bred two-year-olds this year.

His book of mares mirrors his standing as one of the world’s best sires – #4 on the TRC Global Rankings for turf sires – and includes G1 winners Emulous, Juliet Foxtrot, Quadrilateral and Samba Inc, and proven producers Flare Of Firelight (dam of G2 winner Threat), Mirror Lake (dam of G2 winner Imaging), Nimble Thimble (dam of the aforementioned Quadrilateral) and Trojan Queen (dam of G3 winner Sangarius); and young Group/Graded-winning mares Dandhu, Gaining, Isabella Giles, Lucky Kristale (half-sister to Love), Nay Lady Nay (a sister to Arizona), Pocket Square and Sun Maiden (half-sister to Midday).

The coming season will see the first runners hit the track for the top-class two-year-old/miler Expert Eye (whose dam is visiting Mehmas) and Juddmonte are continuing their strong support of the son of Acclamation.

Tendu is a daughter of Oasis Dream, the sire of the European champion two-year-old Native Trail. Those he will cover this year include G1 winner Announce, G3 winner Hot Snap (half-sister to Midday) and the winning Frankel filly Wensleydale, whose dam is Group-winning sprinter Divine.

Bated Breath is standing for a career-high £15,000 this season. His mares include Photographic (dam of G3 winner Shutter Speed) as well as the Listed winners Variable and Zaminast (half-sister to Famous Name), the young Group-placed mare Midweek, and Star Snap, who is a Galileo daughter of the G3 winner Hot Snap.

Other homebred stallions being supported include New Bay, who is covering the Listed winner Heliac amongst others; Showcasing, whose mares include G1 winner African Rose, Continental Drift (a daughter of Intercontinental and dam of Listed winner Masen) and Deliberate (dam of G2 winners Headman and Projected, the latter by Showcasing); and Time Test, whose book includes Across The Floor, dam of Irish G3 winner Acanella.

Among Juddmonte broodmares, the great Enable is one of several mares visiting Dubawi – others include G1 winner Passage Of Time, Frankel’s sister Chiasma, and Frankel’s blacktype winning daughters Fount, Mori and Obligate.

Joyeuse, a half-sister to Frankel, will visit Camelot, while her daughter Jovial will visit Wootton Bassett (along with Enable’s half-sister Portrush and Banks Hill’s G1-winning daughter Romantica).
