Stallions

 

Since it was founded in 1902 Highclere Stud has stood stallions. Group 1 winner and Group 1 sire Dr Fong is the current resident, and Epsom Derby winner Motivator is managed from Highclere Stud by John Warren.

 

With both stallions extremely well supported by international leading breeders and with outstanding books of mares exciting times lie ahead for the Stud, which has a long history of standing successful sires.

 

Since the war, stallions at Highclere have included Champion sires Chanteur, sire of 1953 Derby winner Pinza, Queen's Hussar, sire of Champion miler Brigadier Gerard, and Champion first-season sire Troy and Champion sire Efisio. The latter was an excellent sire of high class performers including Group 1 winners Attraction, Hever Golf Rose, Frizzante, Le Vie Dei Colori and Pearly Shells. Other recent sires to have stood at Highclere Stud included Homing, Teenoso and Sharrood.
