Three-time Group 1 winner Persian King (Ire) (Kingman {GB}) has enjoyed a good start to his initial covering season, as the first three mares he bred have been pronounced in foal, Haras d'Etreham announced on Tuesday. Among the threesome are listed winner Cap Verite (Ire) (Cape Cross {Ire}) and Elodie (GB) (Dansili {GB}). The latter is a full-sister to champions We Are (Ire) and With You (GB). The son of Kingman's fee is set at €30,000 for 2021.
Limited to 140 mares, the G1 French 2000 Guineas victor will also receive Group 1 producers Taranto (GB) (Machiavellian), Golden Lily (Fr) (Dolphin Street {Fr}), Princess Sofia (UAE) (Pennekamp), and Milena's Dream (Ire) (Authorized {Ire}).
