Group 2 Winner Persian Force To Stand For €10K

Group 2 winner Persian Force (Ire) (Mehmas {Ire}) will stand for €10,000 at Tally-Ho Stud next year, the stud announced. A winner of the G2 July S., the son of Vida Amorosa (Ire) (Lope De Vega {Ire}) was also placed three times at the highest level in the Phoenix S., Prix Morny, and the Middle Park S. He ended his career with a close fourth in the GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint at Keeneland in November. The chestnut was retired last month with a mark of 8-3-3-1 and $350,183 in earnings.

“Persian Force is the toughest 2-year-old I've ever trained,” said Richard Hannon, who trained the colt for Kia Joorabchian's Amo Racing. “He competed at the very highest level all his life and he was just so tough. He was our first 2-year-old runner on turf [of 2022] and our last 2-year-old runner on turf [of 2022], which just shows off his steeliness.

“One of his best attributes was his sound of mind. He was so relaxed. You could turn him on. He was like a motorbike, you turn up the throttle a little bit, do a bit of work and then he'd come right back down.

“I can't wait to train his offspring. To think Mehmas has already produced one of our best 2-year-olds–if Persian Force does the same, I'll be in business a long time.”

3.2-Million Mare Malavath Shines In Arqana Ring, As Moyglare Best In Bidding War

A full-sister to G3 Horris Hill S. hero Knight (Ire) (Mehmas {Ire}), dual group winner Malavath (Ire) (Mehmas {Ire}) (lot 199) became the new topper at €3.2 million in Deauville on Sunday. Eva-Maria Bucher-Haefner's Moyglare Stud bought the Ecurie des Monceaux star, who will stay in training and be shipped Stateside to join the Christophe Clement barn. The evolution of Malavath in the ring started when Star Bloodstock spend £29,000 to pick up the chestnut out of the Goffs UK Premier Yearling Sale. Sent back through as a breeze-up horse, the blaze-faced filly brought €134,400 from David Redvers and Meridian after a trip through the ring at the Arqana Breeze-Up Sale.

G2 July S. Hero Persian Force Retired For Stallion Duty

Group 2 winner Persian Force (Ire) (Mehmas {Ire}–Vida Amorosa {Ire}, by Lope De Vega {Ire}), placed three times at the highest level, has been retired to stand at stud in 2023, Amo Racing's Tom Pennington confirmed to the TDN on Sunday morning. A stud farm and fee for the precocious juvenile will be announced in the very near future.

“Persian's done an incredible job, to be honest,” Amo Racing's Kia Joorabchian told Nick Luck during Luck On Sunday. “He's done everything that Mehmas has done. Arguably, according to Richard Hannon, who trained both, he's a better-looking version of his father. And he's got a better pedigree.

“He has started in March, running [in] everything, from almost every Group 1 there was, coming second in most of them. He's never had a bad run. He's followed the footsteps of his dad from start to finish. His father retired at the end of his 2-year-old career. [Mehmas] has had a fantastic career as a stallion. His father will stand today at €60,000. [We looked at that] and thought he could follow in the footsteps of his father [at stud].”

Bred by Tom Lacy, the March foal was sold for €75,000 from Ringfort Stud to Tally-Ho Stud during the Goffs November Foal Sale in 2020. He entered the Amo Racing fold after hammering for €225,000 at the Goffs Orby Sale in 2021. Sent to the yard of Richard Hannon, he ran out a 4 3/4-length debut winner at Doncaster in March. Also a winner at Newbury two months later, he was second in the G2 Coventry S. at Royal Ascot, but returned to winning ways with a 1 1/2-length score in the G2 July S. at Newmarket on July 7. Second in the G1 Phoenix S. at the Curragh in August, he filled that role again in the G1 Prix Morny at Deauville later that month. Third in the Sept. 24 G1 Middle Park S., Persian Force was fourth in the GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint in November and retires with a mark of 8-3-3-1 and $350,183 in earnings.

A full-brother to the G2 Richmond S. third Gubbass (Ire) (Mehmas {Ire}), Persian Force hails from the family of dual Group 3 winner Garrus (Ire), by Mehmas's sire Acclamation (GB), as well as G1 Phoenix S. and G1 National S. hero Danehil Dancer (Ire) (Danehill), who became a successful sire.
