Frankel

A statement from Juddmonte read: "Frankel reached a historic milestone in 2021 when he became the fastest stallion to 50 Group winners ever and achieved 20 Group 1 winners.

"This year has witnessed eight new Group 1 winners, including two Derby winners, an Oaks winner and three Group 1-winning two-year-olds. He currently has an incredible 11 per cent Group winners to runners and 15.5 per cent black-type winners to runners.

"Standing £2 million ahead of his nearest rival on the European general sires list, Frankel is the champion sire-elect and tops the Great Britain and Irish lists, a feat not achieved by a British-based stallion since the great Mill Reef 34 years ago."

Frankel’s barn mate Kingman, the sire of three Group I winners on three continents in Palace Pier, Domestic Spending and Schnell Meister remains at a fee of £150,000.

Kingman

A statement from Juddmonte read: “Kingman’s runners have enjoyed tremendous results, achieving lifetime figures of an outstanding 12% black type winners to runners.

“The future looks very promising for Kingman as he will be represented next year by his largest book of two-year-olds, followed by two exceptional quality books of mares. In fact, in the past three seasons Kingman has covered more than 300 stakes-winners, more than any other stallion in Europe.”
