Multiple Group 1 winner Postponed (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}) will move to Yorton Stud for the 2024 breeding season after Yorton and James & Jean Potter, Ltd. purchased the stallion from Darley. A fee will be announced later for the four-time Group 1 winner.

Previously under the Darley banner at Dalham Hall Stud, the bay will stand to the Futter family's stud near Welshpool in Powys. Richard Venn brokered the deal.

David Futter said of the son of Ever Rigg (GB) (Dubai Destination), “Postponed is a proper horse that any stallion master would welcome to their line-up of National Hunt sires. He is a wonderful addition to the Yorton roster.

“Postponed's oldest stock are only four, yet his young hurdlers are producing some wonderful results. From 12 individual runners five have won, four have been placed and two gained places in black-type races.

“He represents everything we look for in a sire. He raced enthusiastically from the age of two to six, he won four Group 1 races including the King George VI and Queen Elizabeth S. and the Coronation Cup, he retired sound, he has size and scope and the most wonderful mind.”

Postponed, who has G3 Nell Gwyn S. second Almohandesah (GB) to his credit, will stand alongside Arrigo (Ger) (Shirocco {Ger}), Gentlewave (Ire) (Monsun {Ger}), Ito (Ger) (Adlerflug {Ger}), and Pether's Moon (Ire) (Dylan Thomas {Ire}).
