Sires With Winners - Wednesday May 31

Star Rich Hill Stud resident sire Proisir continued his impressive rise from humbler beginnings with further black-type success from a weekend haul of five winners across Australasia.

Three year-old Starspangledbanner colt Rafale Design is in hot form this year winning the Group III Longchamp Prix Hoquart (2200m) last month and then at Chantilly on Sunday he added the Group III Prix du Lys Longines (2400m) to his tally.

Cambridge Stud’s Almanzor (FR) has been firing in Europe this year with a trio of Group II winning three year-olds and one of those is high class filly Gezora, who soared to new heights overnight when taking out the Group I Prix de Diane (2100m) at Chantilly.

Kitchwin Hills announce that promising first season sire Graff, will stand at a retained fee of $9900 inc gst in 2025.

The Goffs London Sale was held overnight on the eve of Royal Ascot and while Starspangledbanner colt Rafale Design passed in shy of his £2million reserve, the same figure was paid for the top lot Ghostwriter and Aussie buyers were also active at the sale.
