Almanzor (Fr), who was recently represented by his first Group 1 winner in Australia, will stand at the reduced fee of €25,000 for 2023. Among his potential top-class 3-year-olds for next season are the Aga Khan's unbeaten Rajapour (Fr), winner of the Listed Prix Isonomy at Deauville last month, and Ecurie Billon's Around Midnight (Fr), who was beaten a short-head for second in the G3 Prix des Reservoirs.
Also commanding a fee of €25,000 for next season is the G1 Poule d'Essai des Poulains winner Persian King (Ire), who has his first foals on the ground this year. Like Almanzor, his fee has been clipped from €30,000. The son of Kingman (GB) remained in training at four to take the G1 Prix d'Ispahan and G1 Prix du Moulin, and also finished third in the Arc.
His fellow Etreham resident Hello Youmzain (Fr) has also been represented by his first crop of foals this year from a debut book of 128 mares, and the dual Group 1-winning sprinter will stand next season at €22,500, trimmed slightly from €25,000.
Completing the stud's Flat roster is City Light (Fr), a son of French champion sire Siyouni (Fr) who will have his first runners on the track next year. His fee has remained at €7,000.
“I would like to take the opportunity of this announcement to thank breeders once again for their loyalty and continuing support in 2022,” said Haras d'Etreham's Nicolas de Chambure.
“With the aim of optimising the value of the investment of breeders who place their trust in us and support our stallions, we reaffirm our conviction to limit each of our sires to 140 mares per year. This limit ensures a certain rarity appeal and guarantees value for their progeny.”
The fees for Haras d'Etreham's National Hunt stallions will be announced soon.
