Group 1-winning sprinter Arizona Blaze has been retired by Amo Racing and will stand at the Irish National Stud next year. His fee has been set at €12,500. An impressive winner of the first two-year-old maiden of the season in March 2024, Arizona Blaze quickly established himself with a defeat of the subsequent Classic winner Camille Pissarro in the Group 3 Marble Hill Stakes at the Curragh in May. Over the remainder of his juvenile career, he continued to match the best two-year-olds around with a succession of cracking efforts, placing in the Group 2 Norfolk Stakes, the Group 1 Phoenix Stakes and the Group 1 Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint. At three, Arizona Blaze laid down a notable early-season marker when he broke the track record over five furlongs at Chantilly in the Group 3 Prix Sigy – a race which has previously been won by the likes of Sands Of Mali. However, his career highlight came when successful in the Group 1 Flying Five Stakes at the Curragh, which turned out to be his final start. Arizona Blaze retires to stud with a Timeform rating of 119 and Amo boss Kia Joorabchian commented, “Arizona Blaze has always demonstrated exceptional strength, speed and mental toughness and we have complete confidence in his ability to pass on his class, power and temperament. “We are delighted to partner with the Irish National Stud for this next chapter which we believe is the perfect home for him. Amo Racing is committed to fully supporting Arizona Blaze throughout his stud career.” Meanwhile, Irish National Stud CEO Cathal Beale, said, “We are delighted to stand Arizona Blaze, new for 2026, at the Irish National Stud. He was teak tough and remarkably consistent at the very highest level over five and six furlongs. He is a horse with great quality, strength and terrific action.” The post Amo Racing’s Group 1 Winner Arizona Blaze To Stand At Irish National Stud appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

Sea The Stars, who has headed the Aga Khan Studs roster for 16 years and is the sire of this year's Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe winner Daryz, has had his fee for 2026 raised to a career high of €300,000, from €250,000. Top of the list of the remaining four Aga Khan Studs stallions, all standing at Haras de Bonneval in Normandy, is Siyouni, whose runners in 2025 included Zarigana, winner of the Poule d'Essai des Pouliches. Having stood at €200,000 in 2025, Siyouni's fee has been reduced to €150,000 for the forthcoming season. His stud-mate Zarak, out of the great Zarkava and who, along with Erevann, is one of two sons of Dubawi on the roster, will remain at €80,000. The champion three-year-old Vadeni and Group 2-winning miler Erevann have each covered three-figure books in their first two seasons at stud and have their first foals about to grace the sales rings. Vadeni's fee for 2026 has been clipped to €15,000 from €18,000, while Erevann – who is out of Siyouni's three-time Group 1-winning daughter Ervedya – will remain at €8,000.

Frankel will once again lead the Juddmonte roster at £350,000 while new addition Lead Artist, a Group 1 winner in the Lockinge Stakes, will stand for £12,500 in 2026. Frankel added 24 individual stakes winners to his record in 2025, 13 of them at Group level. He has now sired an extraordinary 40 individual Group 1 winners and stands as the most successful active sire of Northern Hemisphere Classic winners, with 12 to his name, including 2025 Irish 1,000 Guineas heroine Lake Victoria and dual-Classic winner Minnie Hauk. His success also continues in the sales ring, where for the third year in a row he topped the Tattersalls October Book 1 sires list both by aggregate and by average. Meanwhile, Lead Artist is by a world-class stallion in Dubawi and hails from one of Juddmonte's most storied families, the dynasty of the iconic blue hen mare Hasili. Hasili herself produced five individual Group 1 winners as well as the influential sire Dansili, and her descendants have now accounted for no fewer than 59 Group 1 performances. Speaking about Juddmonte's new addition to the roster at Banstead Manor Stud, Simon Mockridge commented, “Lead Artist represents a fantastic opportunity to further strengthen our stallion roster. He combines pedigree and performance with an outstanding physical, possessing great balance, strength, and movement, all attributes which will appeal to the commercial breeder.” Chaldean covered 323 mares in his first two books, covering more Group winners, stakes winners, and black-type performers than any other first-season sire in Britain or Ireland in his debut year. He maintained that momentum in 2025 with another exceptional book, including 14 Group winners, 28 stakes winners, and 52 black-type performers. Chaldean will stand his third season at a fee of £20,000. Kingman continued to assert his status among the elite, siring 20 individual stakes winners in 2025, including nine Group winners. He became the second-fastest stallion ever to reach 100 individual Northern Hemisphere-bred stakes winners, behind only Frankel, and ahead of Deep Impact, Dubawi and Galileo. His son Field Of Gold reigned supreme in the Irish 2,000 Guineas and St James's Palace Stakes, taking Kingman's tally to 14 Group 1 winners, and five individual Classic winners. Kingman's fee is unchanged at £125,000. Oasis Dream, a stalwart of the Juddmonte roster, will stand for £15,000 while Bated Breath's fee has been reduced to £5,000.

yep. I always enjoy international competition (in any sport really) and we just get a few chances to enjoy it with harness racing as too far away America and Europe. Blair still looks a chance. trotter 'Sand Fly' was disappointing and the other trotting one 'Switch On' of Jones in race 5 could barely trot. it looked terrible in it's action and gave him a poor drive. NevertheLess Blair still in 4th spot . with 5 races to run. an outside chance he could still win POINTS UPDATE J MacDonald (Canada) 130 pts , Gary Hall Jnr (Aus) 121, Mats Djuse (Sweden) 111 and Blair 4th on 107. The other 6 drivers are all still under 100 points and seemingly out of contention. -
i see at auckland the reason d butcher sacrificed his own drive to assist his stablemate was because his stablemate got a penalty free win if it won.
