Strong backing for First Defence continues to reap benefits for Juddmonte Farms

Breeders using a Juddmonte stallion do so in the knowledge that their chosen horse will be operating with the full support of his owner, regardless of the fee bracket he sits in.

As such, that horse gains exposure to Khalid Abdullah’s powerful broodmare band and, latterly, significant representation in some of Europe’s leading yards.

With that in mind, it is no coincidence Juddmonte Farms have over the years bred the first Group 1 winners by ten of their stallions. The list begins with Warning, that brilliant miler who was by far the best runner sired by Known Fact, and has come to include other heavyweights Rainbow Quest (Quest For Fame), Zafonic (Xaar), Zamindar (Zenda) and Dansili (Rail Link).
