Al Wukair, bred by Ballylinch Stud and sold by them for 200,000 gns as a yearling at Tattersalls, was an unbeaten stakes winning 2-year-old last year and he announced himself a genuine G1 2000 Guineas contender with an impressive win in the G3 Prix Djebel at Maisons-Laffitte in April.

    MHaras de MONTAIGU WINGS OF EAGLES 2014 bay Pour Moi-Ysoldina by Kendor If ever a sire has a Classic pedigree it is WINGS OF EAGLES . By the Derby winner Pour Moi, grandson of Montjeu, one of Europe’s greatest Classic sires, and out of the Poule d’Essai des Pouliches third Ysoldina, Wings Of Eagles holds a truly Classic pedigree. DANZIG line mares have brought plenty of success for Montjeu and the GREEN DESERT branch could prove to be a strong starting point. Not only is Oasis Dream the sire of Wings of Eagles’ two black-type half-sisters, but he is also the dam-sire to Montjeu’s Group 3 winning granddaughter Lacy. With this, daughters of Naaqoos could prove to be an ideal cross. Montjeu’s Irish Oaks (Gr 1) winner Bracelet is out of a Green Desert daughter, while a son of Montjeu has sired a Group 3 winner to a daughter of Cape Cross.
