Arizona Blaze, a winner of the G1 Flying Five Stakes, has his first mares scanned in foal. The Irish National Stud resident stands for €12,500 this year.
Elegant Madame (Inns Of Court), a half-sister to G1 Middle Park Stakes-placed Summer Sands (Coach House), is carrying to the son of Sergei Prokofiev. She is from the family of G2 Coventry Stakes hero Hellvelyn.
Another in foal mare is Hi Milady (Sir Prancealot), a half-sister to G3 Anglesey Stakes second Hard Yards (Moss Vale), while Alumni Lia (Australia), from the family of champion Persuasive (Dark Angel) and Group 1-winning sprinter Creative Force (Dubawi), is also in foal to the G3 Prix Sigy hero.
Irish National Stud CEO Cathal Beale said, “Arizona Blaze has adapted seamlessly to his new role. We are impressed with the quality of mares within his first book which points to how well he has been received by breeders in Ireland, The UK and France. Among them are proven stakes producers Hard Walnut, Elpida, Gadfly and Margaret's Mission.”
