New Group One Connected Foals

Breednet - Friday November 1

With Yulong Stud publishing a fantastic photo of first foal for Montefilia by Alabama Express we thought it a good time to highlight a few more foals with Group One connections that have hit the Foal Gallery in the past couple of weeks.

Yulong paid $3.4million for Montefilia at the Inglis Chairman’s Sale in 2023 as a four time Group One winner and gave her six more starts, adding the G2 Hill Stakes to her win list, before retiring.
