Shaquille and Soldier’s Call Bought by Yulong Investments

[Wandering Eyes]

The Dullingham Park stallions Shaquille (GB) and Soldier's Call (GB) have been bought by Yulong Investments from Steve Parkin's Clipper Logistics and will remain in situ in Newmarket.

Yulong Investments' European representative Paul Curran said, “We are absolutely thrilled to welcome Shaquille and Soldier's Call into the Yulong fold. Yulong Investments is deeply passionate about breeding elite racehorses and spares no effort in ensuring its stallions are positioned for greatness. These two exceptional sires will be supported by an elite broodmare band, giving them every opportunity to succeed and leave an enduring mark on future bloodlines. This is not just about adding stallions to our roster; it is about securing a legacy—one that will be felt for generations.”

TDN asked if Yulong had also purchased Dullingham Park Stud itself but Curran declined to comment.

Referring to the “outstanding stewardship” of Clipper Logistics in launching the careers of the two stallions, a statement from Yulong, which also owns Lucky Vega (Ire), who has his first runners this season, emphasised the company's eagerness to “build upon this strong foundation”.

Curran added, “This move underscores Yulong's long-term ambition to be at the forefront of the global breeding industry. With strategic planning and a commitment to excellence, we are confident these stallions will leave a lasting legacy.”

The dual Group 1-winning sprinter Shaquille has first foals on the ground this spring.

In Ireland, Steve Parkin currently stands Space Traveller (GB) at Starfield Stud and is involved in the partnership which stands Sands Of Mali (Fr) at Ballyhane Stud.
