ONE OF THE BEST SONS OF KINGMAN IN EUROPE
Triple Gr.1 hero, this exceptional miler is one of the best sons of Kingman at stud.
Group winner at 2 in England, Persian King won the Gr.1 Poule d'Essai des Poulains at 3
and won twice at the highest level the next year including the
Prix du Moulin de Longchamp Gr.1 winner, defeating five winners of 12 Gr.1.
He ended his exceptionnal racing career with a third place in the Gr.1 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe
on his first attempt over the distance.
A unique partnership involving Godolphin, Dayton Ltd and the Haras d’Etreham was created for his stallion career.
Very well-welcomed by european breeders, Persian King covered a full book of 140 mares in his first season at stud.
In 2022, he welcomes his first foals:
much appreciated, they were sold for €160,000, £130,000, €115,000, €110,000, €80,000, €70,000...
Persian King is having his first yearlings in 2023.
