Royal Meeting (IRE) filly from Dal Riata (IRE)

Pictured at four days old is this beautiful filly from well-bred import Dal Riata (IRE), a placed half-sister by Raven’s Pass to Group I Newmarket Cheveley Park Stakes winner Carry on Katie.


Invincible Spirit has made a huge impression as a sire of sires, notably through his champion sire sons I Am Invincible and Kingman,  and Royal Meeting has the profile to add his own chapter to that success story.

Royal Meeting (IRE) is a Premium stallion, click for more information.

Winner of the Group I Chantilly Criterium International (1400m) at two, Royal Meeting has an intriguing pedigree being from South African Champion 2YO Filly Rock Opera, whose female family features Group I winning South African sprinters Van Halen and Gulf Storm.

For breeders seeing a precocious speed line sire that is Danehill free, Royal Meeting fits the bill at a fee of $11,000.
