Frankel Fever to Ignite Strawberry Hill Dispersal – Let’s See Them

Tara Madgwick - Monday August 28

Frankel is the hottest stallion in the world right now having sired 31 stakes-winners in 2023 and nine are Group I winners, so buyers from all over the world will have more than a passing interest in the Magic Millions run Strawberry Hill Stud Dispersal on Tuesday which features two broodmares and two yearlings by Juddmonte’s champion son of Galileo and another two broodmares in foal to him.

Yearlings

Lot 7 Colt Frankel x Key, by Exceed and Excel – First foal of G3 placed Key, a grand-daughter of champion NZ 3YO Filly Princess Coup, the dam of Frankel’s multiple Australian Group winning mare Argentia.

Lot 20 Filly Frankel x Yesterjoy, by More Than Ready (USA) – Half-sister to dual G3 winner The Elanora from a winning daughter of four time Group I winner Tuesday Joy.

Mares in Foal to Frankel

Lot 47 Mokolua- G2 winner by Redoute’s Choice from G1 winner Dear Demi. Offered in foal to Frankel first season at stud.
