Dear Breeders,

We are delighted to present you with our new roster of stallions for 2017 and would like to

take this opportunity to thank all breeders for your interest and support.

2016 was a thrilling year for the Aga Khan Studs on the racecourse, thanks to the exploits

of dual Derby hero Harzand, and 2017 promises to offer an exciting breeding season as the

son of Sea The Stars joins his illustrious sire at Gilltown Stud.

Harzand undoubtedly provided the highlight of the season for the green and red silks,

becoming the 18th horse in history to record the Epsom and Irish Derby double, and a fi fth

for H.H. the Aga Khan, a record for an owner-breeder. This tough and classy performer is

by champion Sea The Stars, the third leading European sire who boasts an enviable ratio of

12% Stakes winners to runners from his fi rst four crops. Harzand represents an excellent

Aga Khan Studs family as the handsome individual is a son of Group III winner Hazariya, who

has already produced four Stakes performers. Harzand will be an attractive addition to the

Gilltown roster alongside both Sea The Stars and his promising younger brother Born To Sea.

In France, Dariyan was successful at the highest level when lifting the Prix Ganay in May.

Blue-blood runs through Dariyan’s veins as he is a son of the exceptional sire Shamardal

and of Group I winner Daryakana, a young mare whose fi rst two foals are already Stakes

winners. Her dam Daryaba had herself excelled on the racetrack when winning the

Prix Vermeille and Prix de Diane. Dariyan provides a fascinating opportunity for breeders

as he takes up stud duties at the Haras de Bonneval in Normandy, where he joins Classic

sire Siyouni, who enjoys growing success. The young sire, who started his career in 2011,

now counts ten Stakes winners and his daughters Ervedya, Volta and Spectre have been

consistent fl agbearers in Group Is throughout the year. The Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe winner

Sinndar will be standing at Haras du Lion as in 2016.

Recognised for the quality of their stallions, the Aga Khan Studs are also renowned for

their high-class maternal lines, which was illustrated once again in 2016 due to the

outstanding triple Group 1 winner Almanzor, who hails from the same family as Dariyan.

The victories of Vadamos in the Prix du Moulin de Longchamp and of Mont Ormel in the

Classic Grand Prix de Paris further demonstrated the potential of the broodmares offered

for sale by the Aga Khan Studs.

The Aga Khan Studs teams welcome enquiries from all breeders, we look forward to

meeting you to discuss plans for 2017 and wish you a very successful year.

“T hat classic-placed Stakes winner […] is one of the best-bred stallions in service as he is

by the infl uential Invincible Spirit and out of the Group 1 Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe heroine Urban Sea, thereby making him a half-brother to the outstanding classic duo and major sires Galileo and Sea The Stars.”

DARIYANB.h. 2012 SHAMARDAL - DARYAKANA

“D ariyan is an honest racehorse and he is capable of producing a strong turn of foot which he showed when

winning the Prix Ganay. I believe this is a quality that can be passed on, as exemplifi ed by his dam, Daryakana, as she too had great acceleration.”

SEA THE STARSB.h. 2006 CAPE CROSS - URBAN SEA

“T his was a fabulous triumph for Sea The Stars, who was siring a Derby winner from

just his third crop. Overshadowed by the dazzling appearance of Frankel, Sea The Stars was the horse with everything and could do it over any trip and ground. To see him scale this height yesterday was tremendous, and Tesio’s piece of wood was struck again.”

ALMANZORThis year’s highly impressive winner of the Gr I Prix du Jockey

Club, Gr I Irish Champion Stakes and Gr I Champion Stakes is

the fi rst foal of Aga Khan-bred Darkova who was sold for €16,000

to Almanzor’s breeder, Haras d’Etreham.

SUCCESSES OF 2016

AGA KHAN BLOODLINES “T he Aga Khan

has never been afraid of selling

an accomplished broodmare if the timing seems right, a good example being that fi ne mare Darara. He also sold Hazariya […]. Newsells Park was the benefi ciary, with Hazariya producing a fi lly. Incidentally, the Prix du Jockey-Club winner Almanzor […], is the fi rst foal of a fi lly sold by the Aga Khan Studs.”

Andrew Caulfi eld, TDN, 7th June 2016

2016 was particularly successful for the graduates of the Aga Khan Studs. The fi llies and mares offered at the breeding stock sales produced the winners of no less than 30 Stakes races, including Europe’s leading three-year-old ALMANZOR. Talented Group I winners VADAMOS and MONT ORMEL were also bred out of mares purchased from the Aga Khan Studs and the success of dual Derby winner HARZAND, his dam Hazariya having been sold in 2014, further demonstrates the potential of the mares offered for sale.

Over the jumps, DAWALAN, who was bred by the Aga Khan Studs, was crowned Champion Steeplechase Horse at the Eclipse Awards in the USA. RAWNAQ, out of the Aga Khan bred mare Sharemata, won two Grade I races in 2016, including America’s richest Steeplechase, the US Grand National.
