Derby winner Masar (Ire) is set to relocate from Darley's Dalham Hall Stud to Sunnyhill Stud in Ireland for 2025.

A son of New Approach (Ire), Masar finished third behind Saxon Warrior in the 2,000 Guineas before he landed the Derby at Epsom, where he beat that same rival [4th] and four-time Group 1 scorer Roaring Lion [3rd]. 

However, Masar covered just 10 mares in 2024 at a fee of £10,000 and he is now set to stand at Michael Hickey's Sunnyhill Stud in County Kildare next year. 

A statement released by Darley read, “Masar made history in 2018, becoming the first horse to ever carry the Godolphin blue silks to victory in the Derby and has enjoyed success as a sire since, with a number of promising horses from his first two crops.”

It continued, “Darley is pleased to continue their relationship with Sunnyhill Stud who have previously stood Godolphin star Doyen, who has since returned to Kildangan Stud in his retirement.

“The team at Darley would like to thank all of the breeders who have supported Masar at Dalham Hall Stud and wish Sunnyhill Stud every success with him in the future.”
