Newsells Park Stud will increase the fee for Nathaniel (Ire) to £17,500 from £15,000 thanks to a strong year which included two new Group 1 winners: Poptronic (GB) and G1 Goodwood Cup victor Quickthorn (GB). The son of Galileo (Ire) had a busy covering season in 2023, with 165 mares sent his way.
Without Parole (GB), who is set to have his first juvenile runners in 2024, will stand for £8,000, and A'Ali (Ire) remains at £5,000 for his third season. All are Special Live Terms.
“The indubitable Nathaniel continues to deliver top-class winners year after year and his latest duo of Group 1 winners, Quickthorn and Poptronic, simply confirm him as a stallion of exceptional quality and value,” said Julian Dollar, general manager of Newsells Park Stud.
“Remarkably, only Frankel, Dubawi and Sea The Stars surpass him in having sired a larger number of three-year-old-plus Group 1 winners since 2018 in Europe. When one considers that the 'cheapest' of those was standing for €180,000 this year, it should tell breeders once and for all what an underrated stallion Nathaniel really is.”
