Cheveley Park Stud's G1 Prix Morny and G1 Middle Park Stakes winner Vandeek (GB) has had his first two mares scanned in foal, the Newmarket operation reported on Thursday.
The mares in foal include the dual Group 3-placed Kenlova (Fr) (Kendargent {Fr}), a half-sister to the Listed winner and G3 Prix du Bois runner-up Lova (Fr) (Goken {Fr}). She is joined by the winning Kyllachy (GB) mare So Claire (GB), who is out of a half-sister to the high-class sprinters Deacon Blues (GB) (Compton Place {GB}) and The Tin Man (GB) (Equiano {Fr}). So Claire is also from the family of last year's G1 British Champions Sprint Stakes hero Kind Of Blue (GB) (Blue Point {Ire}), who is out of an unraced full-sister to Deacon Blues.
Cheveley Park managing director Chris Richardson said, “Domestic and European breeders have strongly embraced Vandeek as a truly exciting stallion prospect, who has an excellent first book of quality mares, and all the connections are delighted that he has had two mares successfully scanned in foal.”
