Two-time Group 1 winner Watch Me (Fr) (Olympic Glory {Ire}) will visit Haras d'Etreham's Persian King (Ire) (Kingman {GB}) this spring. A winner of the 2019 G1 Coronation S. and 2020 G1 Prix Rothschild for Francis-Henri Graffard, the 6-year-old also claimed the G3 Prix Imprudence and a brace of listed races in her native land. She foaled a Siyouni (Fr) filly on Jan. 27. In her extended family is the stakes-winning gelding Hamish McGonagall (GB) (Namid {GB}), also second in the G1 Nunthorpe S. and third in the G1 Prix de l'Abbaye and another Nunthorpe.
Successful in the 2019 G1 French 2000 Guineas, Persian King also won the G1 Prix d'Ispahan and the G1 Prix du Moulin de Longchamp. He filled the frame in the G1 Prix du Jockey Club and G1 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe, as well. His 2022 fee is €30,000.
