Juddmonte released Feb. 6 its mating plans for some of its high-profile mares.
The farm's two homebred Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe (G1) winners—Enable (2017-18) and last year's winner and European champion older mare Bluestocking—now reside within its European broodmare band at Banstead Manor Stud. Enable will be bred to Haras de Bonneval's Siyouni, while Bluestocking will commence her breeding career with a mating to Dalham Hall Stud's Dubawi.
The 2025 breeding season will also welcome a high-class lineup of newly retired maiden mares. Dual grade 1 winner Whitebeam, group 2 winner and classic-placed Matilda Picotte, group 3-winning Dubawi filly Ottery, and listed stakes winner Coppice (a full sister to multiple group winner Calyx) will all visit Juddmonte's homebred leading sire Frankel . In addition to these exceptional mares, Frankel's 2025 book includes a selection of group winners and producers, such as Agave, Bird Flown, Brostaigh, Juliet Sierra, Nay Lady Nay, Proviso, Repose, Shutter Speed, Special Duty, Teona, Viadera, Zarinsk, and Zatsfine.
Meanwhile at Banstead Manor, Kingman 's book will feature group-winning newcomers Time Lock, who hails from the same family as promising Kingman colt Cosmic Year, and Wendla, a daughter of 2005 Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Turf (G1T) winner Intercontinental. He will also receive other notable mares such as Dandhu, Helleborine (dam of Calyx), Hot Snap (dam of the promising Kingman filly Swelter), Isabella Giles, and Soffia, as well as Scintilating, the dam of Royal Ascot winner Fairy Godmother.
Further notable matings include Emulous, the dam of Bluestocking, returning to Camelot in hope of producing a full sibling to last year's Arc de Triomphe winner, whilst Time Chaser, the dam of Time Lock, will return to Frankel. Additional high-profile matings for 2024 stakes-producing mares include Pavlosk (dam of group 1 winner Babouche) visiting Frankel, Obligate (dam of Lead Artist) visiting Too Darn Hot, Shared Account (dam of three stakes winners, including Better Together) visiting Lope de Vega , and Fount (dam of Apollo Fountain) visiting Blue Point alongside group-winning sprinter Sacred Bridge.
Other key matings for group winners or producers include:
- Lucky Kristale to Charyn
- Haskoy to Dubawi
- Natavia (dam of Haskoy) to Lope de Vega
- Exemplify and Pocket Square to Mehmas
- Gaining to New Bay (to produce a sibling to the unbeaten French colt New Ground)
- Acanella to Night of Thunder
- Joyeuse to No Nay Never (to produce a full sibling to group-winning 2-year-old Array)
- Romantica to Study of Man
- Sun Maiden to Too Darn Hot
- Quadrilateral to Wootton Bassett, who will also cover Chiasma, Frankel's sister
In his second season at stud, Chaldean (a multiple group 1-winning son of Frankel) will be introduced to some of Juddmonte's most proven broodmares, including group 1 producers Kilo Alpha (dam of Juliet Foxtrot), Nimble Thimble (dam of Quadrilateral), Sacred Shield (dam of Viadera), Scuffle (dam of Logician), and Sleep Walk (dam of Whitebeam). He will also cover group producers Flare of Firelight and Principal Role, alongside group winners Announce, Grand Jete, and Suffused.
