Newsells Park Stud Releases 2022 Roster and Fees

Nathaniel (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) will stand for £15,000 in 2022, Newsells Park Stud announced on Wednesday.

The son of bluehen Magnificient Style (Silver Hawk)'s progeny excelled on the racecourse in 2021, and his five black-type winners were led by G1 Nassau S. heroine Lady Bowthorpe (GB) and GI EP Taylor S. victress Mutamakina (GB), who struck in Canada. Bubble Gift (Fr) earned a pair of Group 2 victories in France, and Spirit Ridge (GB) landed a Group 3 Down Under. Also with an Australian slant, the bay's Floating Artist (GB), who has placed twice at group level there, was fourth in the G1 Melbourne Cup last Tuesday. Overall, Nathaniel is the sire of five Group 1 winners, among them the sublime Enable (GB).

Group 1 winner Without Parole (GB) (Frankel {GB}) will stand his second season at Newsells Park at a fee of £8,000. The bay is winner of the G1 St James's Palace S.

Newsells Park Stud's General Manager, Julian Dollar said, “Once again Nathaniel has proven himself as one of the best and most reliable sources of middle-distance horses in Europe. With 20 Group 1 and 2 horses and over 50 Group/Stakes horses to his name, Nathaniel is the sire of five Group 1 winners, including three from a remarkable third crop, which includes the outstanding Nassau S. victress, Lady Bowthorpe and GI EP Taylor winner, Mutamakina in 2021.

“Nathaniel's stock has shown they act on all types of going and the all-weather, which is undoubtedly why his stock continue to be in such demand both domestically and internationally, as yearlings and also horses-in-training, giving owners and breeders significant residual value.

“Without Parole has let down into an absolutely stunning individual and as an emphatic winner of the G1 St James's Palace S., with an outstanding pedigree he is an extremely attractive stallion, even without the small fact that he is by Europe's champion sire-elect, Frankel.

“He was very well supported in his first year and once again, both Newsells Park Stud and his breeders, John and Tanya Gunther will be supporting him with quality mares in 2022.”

Irish National Stud CEO, Cathal Beale said, “We are thrilled to be standing Nando Parrado, new for 2022. He was a precocious, high-class 2-year-old, by a sire of sires, from a great family and he is an exceptional physical. We are really looking forward to welcoming breeders to see him.”

Bred by Anita Wigan, the bay was bought by Paul and Marie McCartan of Ballyphilip Stud as a 165,000gns foal at the Tattersalls December Foal Sale, and, after RNA'ing at the Tattersalls December Yearling Sale at 200,000gns, went into training in the colours of Marie McCartan. The Clive Cox trainee broke his maiden at second asking in Royal Ascot's Coventry S. He then ran a good second in the G1 Prix Morny last August before completing the exacta in the G1 Prix Jean-Luc Lagardere.

Paul McCartan said, “For me, he was the nicest foal of the year in 2018. He was certainly the nicest foal we have ever bought. He had size and strength, a great hip, a lovely head and action to die for. We are retaining a good chunk of ownership and we will endeavour to buy some of his nicest foals in 2023.”

Clive Cox added, “Nando Parrado had shown me exceptional pace from day one. An imposing physical, he had beautiful balance and was so light on his feet, with an ice cool temperament. Nando Parrado was a joy to train, very sound and his 2-year-old performances were top drawer.”

A winner in 10 starts with $190,398 in earnings, the sixth foal out of his dam Chibola is not the only one of her offspring to earn black-type. Muntadab (Ire) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}) was listed placed in England, while Dubai Horizon (Ire) (Poet's Voice [GB}) was third in the G3 Nad Al Sheba Trophy. Chibola progressed to win a Group 3 in her native land as a 4-year-old and was also Group 1-placed as a juvenile. She is a full-sister to G1 Estrellas Junior Sprint hero Chollo (Arg) (Roy) and a half to two more black-type winners.
