Too Darn Hot

£65,000 B 2016 16.0½HH (1.63M)
Dubawi – Dar Re Mi (Singspiel)
Oct 1, Special Live Foal. Standing at Dalham Hall Stud, Newmarket

An unbeatable start at stud with four European Group-winning two-year-olds – no first-crop sire has ever sired more. And what Group winners they are, led by the G1 Moyglare winner and the G1 Dewhurst runner-up. Dubawi’s best two-year-old when excelling in the G1 Dewhurst from a starry field, and a European Champion and G1 winner again at three. A £116k yearling average, with five making over £300k led by a 450,000gns top lot.
