Group Winner Kenway To Stand At Coolagown Stud Next Year

Group 3 winner Kenway (Fr) (Galiway {GB}–Kendam {Fr}, by Kendargent {Fr}) will stand for €3,000 at Coolagown Stud in partnership with his owners, the Chehboub family, next year, Jour de Galop reported.

Bred by Guy Pariente Holding, he was a €56,000 Arqana August buy for the Cheboubs' Haras de la Gousserie, who campaigned him across five seasons and 38 starts. Successful in the G3 Prix la Rochette and a trio of listed races, the 6-year-old was also group-placed another four times and has earned $338,774.

“We are delighted with this partnership with Coolagown Stud on Kenway, as well as having found him a place at stud in Ireland, where he will have an interesting number of mares available,” Pauline Chehboub told JDG. “He has the profile to be a very versatile sire and should attract broodmares on the Flat and over obstacles.”

The best foal of his G3 Prix Eclipse-winning dam who also ran third in the G1 Prix de la Foret, Kenway is kin to G1 Galaxy winner Snowland (Aus) (Snippets {Aus}).

Coolagown's roster is completed by Storm The Stars, who bred 86 mares in his first season, and is also at €3,000; Shantaram (GB) at €1,000; Way To Paris (GB) who attracted 126 partners and will be €3,500; and Zambezi Sun (GB) at €2,000.

Marie’s Diamond Retired To Diamond Stud Bellewstown

Marie's Diamond (Ire) (Footstepsinthesand {GB}–Sindiyma {Ire}, by Kalanisi {Ire}) has been retired and will stand at Diamond Stud Bellewstown in 2024. The G3 Angelsey S. victor will stand for €6,000. There are also limited breeding rights available.

“I believe he is a very important stallion for the future of the Irish Thoroughbred, boasting an excellent 2-year-old record while showing great progression and soundness throughout a long and successful career,” said Diamond Stud's Ciaran de Barra. “This horse had an incredible constitution, he is free from Danzig, Sadler's Wells, and Acclamation (GB) blood, so he is sure to suit a large proportion of the broodmare population.”

Bred by Tony Ashley, the €35,000 Tattersalls Ireland September yearling won the Angelsey for trainer Mark Johnston and Middleham Park Racing at two. A seven-time winner, the 65,000gns Tattersalls Autumn HIT graduate was also third in the G1 Queen Anne S. and placed in six other group races throughout his 65-race career for various connections while earning $463,141.

Added Johnston, “Marie's Diamond has the perfect blend of precocity and progression and showed a special constitution that is rare in the modern Thoroughbred.”

The 7-year-old is a half-brother to the stakes-winning G1 Metropolitan H. third Sikandarabad (Ire) (Dr Fong). This is the extended family of G1 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe hero Sinndar (Ire) (Grand Lodge).
