[Wandering Eyes]

Elite Status has his first mares scanned in foal.

The son of Havana Grey, who won the G3 Prix de Cabourg and G3 Hackwood Stakes, stands for £8,000 at Whitsbury Manor Stud this year.

Some of the mares in foal to the G2 Norfolk Stakes runner-up include Harry Sounds (Due Diligence), a sister to multiple stakes winner and Group 1-placed Diligent Harry; Queens Prestige (Expert Eye), a sister to multiple stakes winner Mubtasimah (Dark Angel); and I Promised Myself (Dabirsim), a half-sister to the group winner and Group 1-placed Isfahani (Isfahan) and the group placed Ismahane (Isfahan).

Joe Callan, head of bloodstock and sales at Whitsbury Manor Stud, said, “Elite Status has adapted seamlessly to his new role at stud and has been the ultimate professional in every respect. The support he has received has been hugely encouraging,

and we couldn't be more delighted with both the calibre of mares in his first book and the quality of breeders backing him. It provides a very exciting foundation on which to build his stud career.”
