Retiring to stud in 2013, SIR PRANCEALOT quickly shot to fame when taking out the Leading First Season Sire’s title in Great Britain and Ireland and in a clever bit of commercial spin became the "first horse to beat Frankel”.
From humble beginnings and modest expectation, Sir Prancealot put himself on the map very quickly as a sire to watch and has risen to being a well proven stallion with some impressive statistics.
From 105 first crop foals Sir Prancealot has produced 63 winners from 91 runners (70%) and stakes winners to runners ratio of an elite 7%.
Of those stakes-winners, Beau Recall landed her second Grade II with a win in the Distaff Turf Mile in the race that followed the Kentucky Derby. A stone-cold ride by Irad Ortiz Jnr saw Beau Recall give her rivals windburn in the final furlong and it is felt a future Grade 1 win is on the cards this season.
On the same day, but on the California turf at Santa Anita, Lady Prancelaot almost landed her first Graded victory with a second in the Grade III Senorita Stakes. This performance followed hot on the heels of Ginger Nut’s Listed win in April that is delivering Sir Prancelaot with a 2.7 AEI - An enormous return on investment for those that believed in this Danzig free stallion with pre-potent genetics.
A Mr Prospector line sire, Sir Prancealot has 10% stakes-winners to runners when placed over Danehill line mares and his branch of the Mr Prospector sireline (TAMAYUZ & NAYEF) when placed over Danehill line mares has produced 54 runners and 13 stakes-winner!
