Godolphin’s G1 St James’s Palace S. winner Barney Roy (GB) (Excelebration {Ire}) has been removed from the Darley stallion roster at Dalham Hall Stud after proving subfertile. The news was first reported by Racing Post and confirmed by TDN.

Sam Bullard, Darley’s director of stallions, told Racing Post, “Whilst Barney Roy’s news was disappointing, we have worked hard with our clients to ensure they are happy with plans for their mares this year. We wish all of our breeders success with their mating plans in 2018.”

Barney Roy, who was a nose second to Ulysses (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) in the G1 Coral-Eclipse following his Royal Ascot score for trainer Richard Hannon, was third behind that same rival in the G1 Juddmonte International but beat just one home in the G1 Champion S. over the soft going at Ascot in October. Barney Roy was initially expected to race on this year, but was rerouted to Dalham Hall after picking up an injury. His advertised fee was £10,000.
