It only took Hollie Doyle four rides to get back in the Hong Kong groove as Run Run Smart got her short-term stint in the city off to the perfect start in the Class Four Japan Racing Association Trophy (1,200m) at Happy Valley on Wednesday night. It was a sense of deja vu for the British rider, who rode Run Run Smart – named Asktheboss at the time – to victory in a Chester novice race in June 2024 for Adrian Keatley. Paired up with him for the first time since, Doyle wasted no time in letting...View the full article -

Dubawi will remain at a fee of £350,000 for the 2026 breeding season while his son Night Of Thunder, the champion sire-elect in Britain and Ireland, has had his fee raised to £200,000. The fees released for Darley's 23 stallions in Europe include four newcomers. The treble Group 1 winner Rosallion is introduced at £40,000 at Dalham Hall Stud, where he will stand alongside his relative and fellow Group 1 winner Inisherin, whose fee is £12,500. Also new to the roster is Shadow Of Light, winner of both the G1 Middle Park and G1 Dewhurst Stakes, who is based at Kildangan Stud at €17,500, while Tribalist, whose nine stakes wins include the G1 Prix du Moulin, stands on the new stallion roster at Haras de Castillon in Normandy for €6,000. Darley's flagbearer Dubawi, who will turn 24 in January, reached two new milestones this year, siring his 300th stakes winner and 200th Group winner. On Saturday, the Charlie Appleby-trained Notable Speech became his fourth winner of the GI Breeders' Cup Mile in five years. Along with Night Of Thunder, Dubawi's sons on the roster also include Too Darn Hot, whose fee will rise from £90,000 to £100,000, Ghaiyyath, sire of the recent G1 Victoria Derby winner Observer, who remains at €20,000, Modern Games (£27,500), Space Blues (€15,000) and Naval Crown (€9,000). Blue Point and Teofilo will remain at their 2025 fees of €100,000 and €30,000 respectively. Palace Pier, who has three first-crop Group winners to his credit among seven black-type performers, also remains steady at £32,000, while his contemporary Space Blues, sire of G1 Phoenix Stakes winner Power Blue, has been trimmed slightly at €15,000. Sam Bullard, Director of Stallions said, “It has been another outstanding year for our European roster and we couldn't be prouder of our new champion sire Night Of Thunder, and are, as ever, extremely grateful to the breeders, without whom such success would not be possible. “The 2026 roster offers breeders a range of opportunities to tap into two of the best sire-lines in the world plus a superb group of both young and proven stallions, and to have three champions to retire this year in Rosallion, Shadow Of Light and Inisherin is hugely exciting. “We look forward to discussing mating plans in the coming weeks and, of course, welcoming breeders to both Dalham Hall Stud and Kildangan Stud to see the stallions for themselves.” The full list of Darley fees is as follows: DALHAM HALL STUD Dubawi £350,000 Too Darn Hot £100,000 Rosallion (NEW) £40,000 Palace Pier £32,000 Modern Games £27,500 Farhh Private Pinatubo £17,500 Inisherin (NEW) £12,500 Harry Angel £10,000 Iffraaj Private Triple Time £10,000 Perfect Power £7,500 KILDANGAN STUD Night Of Thunder €200,000 Blue Point €100,000 Teofilo €30,000 Ghaiyyath €20,000 Shadow Of Light (NEW) €17,500 Native Trail €16,000 Space Blues €15,000 Naval Crown €9,000 Raven's Pass Private FRANCE Victor Ludorum €10,000 Tribalist (NEW) €6,000 The post Night Of Thunder Up At €200,000 As Darley Announce Fees appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
