Dubawi heads the Darley Euro roster at a fee of 350,000 pounds.

Turning 23 next year, Dubawi is reportedly set to cover a reduced book of mares in 2025, but Darley have some exciting young sires  to pick up the slack with both Blue Point and Too Darn Hot given significant increases.

Currently in Australia, Blue Point will stand at  £100,000 which is up from  £60,000, while Too Darn Hot climbs to £90,000 up from  £65,000.

Dubawi’s exceptional sire son Night of Thunder is also on the rise up to  £150,000 from  £100,000.

Sam Bullard, Darley's director of stallions, said: “To have three stallions of the calibre of Blue Point, Night Of Thunder and Too Darn Hot is a source of immense pride to the whole team, particularly as they are sons of our own breed-shapers Dubawi and Shamardal.

“Our roster provides breeders with a wealth of choices for their mares, from our proven sires to exciting young stallions, and we look forward to showing them in the coming months.”
