Al Shaqab Racing's Olympic Glory (Ire) (Choisir {Aus}–Acidanthera {GB}, by Alzao) will stand at Haras de Bouquetot in France in 2015. A triple Group 1 winner with wins in the G1 Prix Jean-Luc Lagardere as a juvenile, the G1 Queen Elizabeth II S. at Ascot last October and the G1 Lockinge S., the handsome bay will make one more start this year in either the G1 Qatar Prix de la Foret or will defend his title in the G1 Queen Elizabeth II S. Olympic Glory will arrive at Haras de Bouquetot in November. His record stands at 14-7-3-1, and $2,059,558 in earnings and he joins fellow Al Shaqab stallions Style Vendome (Fr) (Anabaa) and Planteur (Ire) (Danehill Dancer) who both completed their first season at stud as well as Uruguayan champion Boby Di Job (Brz) (Job Di Caroline {Brz}) who will also be standing his initial season in 2015. A stud fee will be announced later.
“Olympic Glory is the most amazingly consistent horse who we have enjoyed campaigning at the highest level for the past three yeas,” commented trainer Richard Hannon, Jr. “He has a wonderful temperament, and physically you could not wish to see a more imposing individual.”
