Henry Longfellow retired to stud

The son of Dubawi and racemare Minding, won each of his three juvenile starts last season, with a dominant victory in the National Stakes at the Curragh completing the hat-trick.

However this camapign was less successful, with a neck second to Rosallion in the St James’s Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot the highlight of his five races.

He finished fourth in the Sussex Stakes at Goodwood and third in the Prix du Moulin at ParisLongchamp, but was well beaten on what turned out to be his final start in a soft-ground Queen Elizabeth II Stakes on Champions Day at Ascot.

Coolmore’s director of sales David O’ Loughlin said: “He went unbeaten in three starts at two years, including the Group One National Stakes just like his sire Dubawi, who is becoming a very significant sire of sires.

“He again showed top-class form at three over a mile when beaten just a neck by Rosallion in the St James’s Palace Stakes.

“He’s arguably the best-looking son of Dubawi to go to stud and he’s out of one of the best Galileo racemares ever. I have no doubt that he will prove extremely popular with breeders.”
