Hello Youmzain (Fr) | Horse Racing Free Tips

Champion and MG1SW Almanzor (Fr) (Wootton Bassett {GB}), who will have his first 2-year-olds in 2021, leads the Haras d’Etreham roster at €30,000, the French stud announced on Sunday. Also a shuttle stallion to Cambridge Stud in the Southern Hemisphere, a 1/50th share in the Cartier champion 3-year-old colt of 2016 was bought for €310,000 at the Arqana Online Sale this past Wednesday and his yearlings have been well received, selling for up to €280,000.

Joining him at €30,000 is Persian King (Ire) (Kingman {GB}-Pretty Please {Ire}, by Dylan Thomas {Ire}), who will cover his first mares in 2021. A winner of the G1 French 2000 Guineas, G1 Prix d’Ispahan and G1 Prix du Moulin, the 4-year-old’s final race was a good third in the G1 Qatar Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe. Another new stallion at d’Etreham is MG1SW Hello Youmzain (Fr) (Kodiac {GB}), who will also shuttle to Cambridge Stud in New Zealand alongside Almanzor. Successful in the G1 Betfair Sprint Cup and G1 Diamond Jubilee S., he will command €25,000.

Second-season sire City Light (Fr) (Siyouni {Fr}) will remain at €7,000 after receiving 137 mares in 2020, over one-third of them black-type performers or producers. The Flat roster is rounded out by Scissor Kick (Aus) (Redoute’s Choice {Aus}) at €5,000. His oldest foals will be 3-year-olds in 2021.

In the National Hunt sphere, Haras d’Etreham boasts a quartet in 2021 led by established sire Saint des Saints (Fr) (Cadoudal {Fr}) at €15,000. Haras d’Etreham will also stand a jumps trio at Haras de la Tuilerie– Masked Marvel (GB) (Montjeu {Ire}) at €5,000, Goliath du Berlais (Fr) (Saint des Saints {Fr}) at €7,500 and new stallion and G1 Irish Derby hero Latrobe (Ire) (Camelot {GB}-Question Time {GB}, by Shamardal) at €4,000.

“I would like to take advantage of this announcement of our stallion feed to reconfirm our policy of limiting our sires to 140 mares,” said d’Etreham’s Nicolas de Chambure. “This seems to us to be the best way to respect and support breeders who place their trust in our stallions. This allows them, during this uncertain period, to be assured of a certain exclusivity and value of their progeny on the market. In a competitive context, pricing policy does not suffice. Breeding and stallion management are activities which must be considered with a long-term view.”

MG1SW Hello Youmzain (Fr) (Kodiac {GB}-Spasha {GB}, by Shamardal) has been retired and will take up stud duties at Haras d’Etreham in France. Etreham and Cambridge Stud purchased the bay for stallion duty last October, and he will shuttle to Brendan and Jo Lindsay’s New Zealand property to fulfill Southern Hemisphere obligations in due course. Etreham and Cambridge joined forces to stand Hello Youmzain’s new barnmate Almanzor (Fr) (Wootton Bassett {GB}) in 2018. A fee for the Rabbah Bloodstock-bred will be announced later and his book will be capped at 140 mares.

“We are delighted to welcome Hello Youmzain and offer his services to French breeders,” said Nicolas de Chambure of Haras d’Etreham. “He presents a rare profile as no sprinter of this caliber has begun his stud career in France since Anabaa. He is a high-class individual with a strong physique and fantastic movement. He will be supported by a powerful syndicate and should attract mares from Ireland and England.”

Trained by Kevin Ryan, Hello Youmzain’s juvenile season was highlighted with a debut score and two starts on a win in the G2 Criterium de Maisons-Laffitte, and he returned at three to claim the G2 Sandy Lane S. at Haydock last May. Third in the G1 Commonwealth Cup S. at Royal Ascot a month later, he earned his first Group 1 badge with a win in the G1 Betfair Sprint Cup in September in his final start for owner Jaber Abdullah. Two starts later, the son of Spasha scored in the G1 Diamond Jubilee S. at Royal Ascot as a 4-year-old, and was also runner-up later this season in the G1 LARC Prix Maurice de Gheest. Hello Youmzain retires with a mark of 12-5-2-1 and $733,464 in earnings.

Said trainer Kevin Ryan, “He was a lovely horse to train, showed his class and ability at a very early stage and was such a sound horse all the way through his career. He had such a great temperament and proved to be very tough and genuine.”

Hello Youmzain is a half-brother to German/Italian highweight, MGSW-Ger, GSW-Ity, and G1 German Derby third Royal Youmzain (Fr) (Youmzain {Ire}); English SW Zuhoor Baynoona (Ire) (Elnadim); and the SP Saglawy (Fr) (Youmzain {Ire}). His second dam is a half-sister to G2 Hardwicke S. winner Sandmason (GB) (Grand Lodge), and SW & GSP Sardegna (GB) (Pharly {Fr}). This is also the family of Australian Group 1 winner Summer Passage (Aus) (Snitzel {Aus}).

“Hello Youmzain will be an exciting addition to the Cambridge Stud stallion roster and the New Zealand breeding industry next year,” said Cambridge Stud CEO Henry Plumptre. “Cambridge Stud and Haras d’Etreham would like to thank Kevin Ryan and his team at Hambleton Lodge, including jockey Kevin Stott, for giving us an amazing highlight in the Diamond Jubilee at Ascot.”
