Masked Marvel (GB) anchors the Haras d'Etreham National Hunt roster for 2025, the stud announced on Tuesday. The sire of several Grade 1 winners and 23 black-type performers will stand at an unchanged fee of €12,500. Young sire Goliath Du Berlais (Fr) is now leading first-season sire once again, with his first 3-year-olds on the racecourse. He is in second place overall among sires of 3-year-olds, just behind Doctor Dino (Fr), with 11 winners already and among them, five French black-type performers. Goliath du Berlais's fee is €12,500 in 2025. Group 1 winner Latrobe (Ire) will be available for €4,000. A true-breeding bay, the son of Camelot (GB)'s eldest foals will be 3-year-olds of 2025. Paradiso (Fr), the first son of Kapgarde (Fr) at stud, welcomed his first foals this year. He will remain at €5,000. As part of an association with the Haras de Cercy, Wonderful Moon (Ger) has taken the place of Pretty Tiger (Ire) at Haras de la Tuilerie for the 2025 season. His fee stays at €2,500. Nicolas de Chambure said, “We are delighted to offer varying profiles of stallions so that all breeders may find the best match for their broodmares. The quality of the French jumps stallion ranks continues to develop and it is in this dynamic environment that we wish to position ourselves and continue to invest. I would also like to remind you of our strict stallion limitation policy, which protects and enhances breeders' investment. Finally, it is very satisfying to witness the success of Goliath du Berlais, who we launched in association with breeders via the operation of breeding rights.” The post Haras d’Etreham Jumps Roster Revealed appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

The G1 Prix de Diane winner Sparkling Plenty (Fr) has been added to the Arqana Breeding Stock Sale as a wildcard entry. The daughter of Kingman (GB) will sell on the Saturday of the auction as lot 200 through Haras de Bouquetot to dissolve the partnership between Al Shaqab Racing and Sparkling Plenty's breeder Jean-Pierre Dubois. The filly was first offered as a yearling at Arqana in August 2022 and was unsold at €600,000. In June, the day after her Classic victory in the colours of Dubois, she was offered during the Goffs London Sale. She was again bought in, at £8,100,000, before a private sale was agreed at £5,000,000, with Al Shaqab taking a 50% share. Unbeaten in both her starts at two for Patrice Cottier, Spakling Plenty earned her first black type in the listed Prix Delahante on her second outing. Victory in the G2 Prix Sandringham preceded her Diane triumph. A full-sister to the G3 Jersey Stakes winner Noble Truth (Fr), Sparkling Plenty is out of the unraced Frankel (GB) mare Speralita (Fr), a half-sister to the outstanding Stacelita (Fr) (Monsun {Ger}), whose six Group/Grade 1 wins also includes the Prix de Diane. Stacelita has in turn become an accomplished broodmare in Japan and produced Frankel's first Grade 1 winner, Soul Stirring (Jpn). “We are delighted to present a Prix de Diane winner at the upcoming Arqana Vente d'Elevage,” said Benoit Jeffroy, manager of Haras de Bouquetot. “A Classic winner with such a pedigree represents a rare opportunity and an exceptional racing and breeding potential.” Arqana president Olivier Delloye added, “It's an exceptional opportunity to be able to offer a Classic winner at the end of her three-year-old season. Sparkling Plenty has demonstrated her class since her debut and has fantastic opportunities on the racecourse at four, being just as brilliant over a mile as she is over 2,100 metres. Sparkling Plenty also comes from one of the finest European families that includes Stacelita, Sauterne and Soul Stirring, that have shone at the highest level both in Europe and Japan. She is an absolute rarity at public auction and we are honoured to be able to offer her in the Arqana ring on December 7.” The post Sparkling Plenty Added to Arqana Breeding Stock Sale appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

Breeders' Cup winner Starlust (GB) (Zoustar {Aus}) and Grade I runner-up The Foxes (Ire) (Churchill {Ire}) have both been supplemented to the Longines Hong Kong International Races, the Hong Kong Jockey Club (HKJC) announced on Tuesday. The former won the GI Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint in the colours of Fitri Hay and trainer Ralph Beckett. A winner of the G3 Sirenia Stakes in September of 2023, the colt wound up third in the GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint at Santa Anita two starts later. This term, Starlust managed a listed victory at York in July, and he was also third in the G1 Nunthorpe Stakes in August during a 10-start campaign. He has been supplemented to the G1 Longines Hong Kong Sprint over 1200 metres. King Power Racing's 4-year-old entire is rounding back into form after some time in the wilderness. Successful in the G2 Royal Lodge Stakes as a juvenile, he would take the G2 Dante Stakes, and run second in the GI Belmont Derby Invitational Stakes last summer. Unplaced in his first four starts of 2024, he ran out a three-length winner of the Listed Churchill Stakes over the all-weather at Newcastle over proven Group 1 yardstick Dubai Honour (Ire) (Pride Of Dubai {Aus}) on Nov. 16. Trained by Andrew Balding, The Foxes joins the G1 Longines Hong Kong Cup field.

Stuart S. Janney, III, will step down from his position as chair of The Jockey Club, effective August 2025, the organization announced Tuesday morning. On Janney's recommendation, the board of stewards has chosen Everett Dobson to be his successor. The leadership transition will commence over the coming months, and Janney will remain on the board of stewards through his term, which will end in August 2026. Janney, a prominent Thoroughbred owner and breeder for several decades, was elected vice chair of The Jockey Club in 2010 and became chair in 2015. During his tenure, The Jockey Club expanded its commercial businesses and used those proceeds to make substantial investments in support of the sport. Janney was awarded the Eclipse Award of Merit earlier this year. He is chairman emeritus of Bessemer Trust. “I consider it a privilege to be associated with the accomplishments The Jockey Club has achieved over the past several years, including our many initiatives to sustain and grow the sport, and of course the passage of the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Act,” Janney said. “These accomplishments, and so many more, are because everyone at The Jockey Club puts the horse first, and I'm proud to be a member and to have served as chair.” A longtime Thoroughbred owner and breeder, Dobson is the owner of Candy Meadows Farm, a broodmare farm located in Lexington and he races under Cheyenne Stables. He is on his second term as a steward of The Jockey Club. He serves on the executive committee of the Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association and is immediate past chairman of the American Graded Stakes Committee. Dobson serves as a member of the Breeders' Cup, in addition to being a trustee of the Keeneland Association. A native and resident of Oklahoma, Dobson is the executive chairman of Dobson Fiber, a telecommunications company based in Oklahoma City. He is also an investor in the Oklahoma City Thunder NBA team and serves on its board of directors. “I am honored to follow Stuart as chair of The Jockey Club,” Dobson said. “I will continue to ensure that The Jockey Club remains true to its mission of being dedicated to the improvement of Thoroughbred breeding and racing.” The other stewards of The Jockey Club are Barbara Banke, Louis A. Cella, William S. Farish Jr. (vice chair), Gary Fenton, Terry Finley, Ian D. Highet (treasurer), William M. Lear (secretary), David O'Farrell, R. Alex Rankin, and Vincent Viola.

Multiple Australian listed winner Bold Bastille (Aus) (Brazen Beau {Aus}) changed hands for A$810,000 to Yulong under the Walnut Farm banner during Tuesday's Inglis Digital Online Sale. Offered by Lindsay Park Racing for an ownership group that included Ozzie Kheir, John O'Neill and partners, the O E & D R Pope, Pty., Ltd.-bred filly is the eighth horse to realise A$500,000 or more on Inglis Digital this year and the 104th to realise A$100,000 or more on the platform in the same time frame. She was originally an A$270,000 Inglis Premier yearling when picked up by Lindsay Park Racing and Group 1 Bloodstock from the Blue Gum Farm draft in 2023. Yulong chief operating officer, Sam Fairgray indicated the daughter of the group-placed Chloe In Paris (Aus) (Exceed And Excel {Aus}) would remain in training with Ben Will and JD Hayes, and told The Thoroughbred Report, “We've seen what they've done over the past couple of years. They're a fantastic training organisation, and they have a facility that they can mix it up and do different things, and come up with different ideas. “They're great with innovations and what they've done with their horses in the past. We've had a good relationship with them, and we look forward to hopefully continuing that with Bold Bastille. We've got a couple of ideas with what we might do with her, which we'll talk about in the next couple of days. “Longer term she's got great residual value and she'll be easy to mate with any of our stallions. The likelihood is that next year she'll retire and go to stud, and we know those fillies with their precocity as 2-year-olds pass it on to their progeny.” Bold Bastille's dam is a half-sister to the Brazen Beau stakes winner Ideas Man (Aus), the group-placed The Original (Aus) (Dehere), the winning dam of Group 3 heroine She Dances (Aus) (Street Boss), and another half-sister is responsible for stakes winner Larimer Street (Aus) (Brazen Beau {Aus}) and the G3 Zeditave Stakes and G3 Telstra Phonewords Stakes second Brockhoff (Aus) (Lonhro {Aus}). “Yes, [Bold Bastille has good pedigree], and we own her half-sister already, Rue Vivienne (Aus), who is a Lonhro (Aus). She had an Alabama Express (Aus) foal this year,” Fairgray added. “So it's a family that we like, and her pedigree is going to work well with a couple of our stallions. “That was one of the ideas of getting her. Eventually she'll end up in the breeding barn, and we can breed her to one of our stallions.” Added Group 1 Bloodstock's Mat Becker, “All the owners are over the moon, we're so happy with the outcome, everybody is just really pleased. “It's great to see her end up at that price, she really deserved it and it was very exciting to watch the bidding that final half hour or so, it really soared.” The post Listed Winner Bold Bastille Sells For A$810,000 To Walnut Farm On Inglis Digital appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
