Exciting young sire King Of Change is on the move and will stand at Tweenhills in Gloucestershire from this year, the operation announced on Friday. 

The Group 1-winning son of Farhh was second only to Dubawi for stakes winners to runners among sires standing in Europe last year with progeny headed by the tough and tenacious Lady With The Lamp, a triple black-type scorer, as well as the promising Silver Tankard Stakes victor Shayem. 

They also include Miss of Change and Onemoredance, the latter purchased by David Redvers for 240,000gns at the Tattersalls December Mares Sale and set to continue her racing career in the US for Qatar Racing.

The ten-year-old, previously a resident of Starfield Stud in Ireland, has had winners in the UK, Ireland, France, Saudi Arabia, Spain and Italy over a variety of trips on the Flat, while his progeny have won stakes races over a range of distances and surfaces.

David Redvers, managing director of Tweenhills, said: “I'm thrilled to have been able to acquire a proven stallion of the clear and obvious ability of King Of Change. This is a major coup for Tweenhills and great news for the British breeding industry. We're not alone in considering him to be one of the best value stallions currently standing in Europe and alongside Kameko we now stand two of the best milers, proven at stud, in the UK.

"From very limited opportunities King Of Change has delivered outstanding results, and it's mouth-watering to think what he could achieve going forward with more quality and quantity. It goes without saying that we will be supporting King Of Change with our broodmare band and our partners in the stallion will do likewise.

"At the beginning of our 30th anniversary as a stallion farm, King Of Change’s arrival heralds an exciting new chapter for Tweenhills."

He added: “Having always been a fan of his sire, Farhh, I've followed King Of Change’s career with interest. None of it is a fluke and the support he's recently received under Micheal Orlandi’s care at Starfield from some of the shrewdest breeders in Ireland is testament to his burgeoning reputation.

“We're excited to welcome him to the farm this weekend and look forward to settling him in and showing him to clients. His fee for 2026 will be announced on Monday and we expect him to fill very fast."
