Mongolian Khan (Aus) (Holy Roman Emperor {Ire}–Centafit {NZ}, by Centaine {Aus}), a Group 1 winner in Australia and New Zealand, will stand at New Zealand's Windsor Park Stud this year after that operation purchased a 50% interest in the 4-year-old from Inner Mongolia Rider Horse Group. Mongolian Khan, New Zealand's Horse of the Year and champion 3-year-old, is the only horse in history to win the G1 Australian Derby, G1 New Zealand Derby and G1 Caulfield Cup. He was trained by Murray Baker and Andrew Forsman and banked almost A$4 million in prize money.
“Windsor Park are delighted to have purchased 50% of the champion racehorse Mongolian Khan from the Inner Mongolia Rider Horse Group, who will retain the other half,” said Windsor Park owner Rodney Schick. “Their president, Mr. Lin Lang, is a passionate supporter of the New Zealand Racing Industry and will be backing Mongolian Khan at stud with a number of high- quality broodmares, which he is currently in the process of securing. We have enjoyed great success standing Derby winners like High Chaparral and Montjeu at Windsor Park and with his race performance and pedigree we think Mongolian Khan ticks all the right boxes.”
Trainer Murray Baker added, “With his speed and ability to run fast sectionals, Mongolian Khan ranks with the best racehorses I have trained, as his outstanding record would suggest. He's got the looks and was a very sound racehorse who was blessed with a great action and a beautiful temperament.”
