Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted April 18, 2018 Journalists Share Posted April 18, 2018 Dansili (GB) (Danehill–Hasili {Ire}, by Kahyasi {Ire}), sire of 20 Group 1 winners and among the top sires in Europe by lifetime group winners, has been pensioned from stud duty at Banstead Manor Stud due to declining fertility at age 22. Dansili, out of the legendary producer Hasili, was a Group 2 winner and narrowly missed in Group 1 company on a few occasions. He went on to outdo himself as a sire, however, his leading progeny including the King George winner Harbinger (GB), standout mare The Fugue (GB) and global Group 1 winner Flintshire (GB). “With the support of loyal breeders, Dansili rose from modest beginnings to become one of Europe’s leading sires,” said Banstead Manor Stud Director Simon Mockridge. “He has established himself as an incredibly consistent sire of high-class performers. His influence will be felt at Juddmonte for many years to come through his daughters in the broodmare band and via his exciting son Bated Breath, whose career has closely echoed that of his sire to date. Dansili will now enjoy a well-deserved retirement at Banstead Manor Stud.” View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
