Wooded introduced at €15,000 as Haras de Bouquetot announce 2021 fees

Al Shaqab has introduced Haras de Bouquetot's newest recruit Wooded at a fee of €15,000, the joint-highest on the eight-strong roster alongside Shalaa.

The son of Wootton Bassett signed off his career with a narrow win in the Prix de l'Abbaye at Longchamp in October, having earlier on struck in Group 3 company in May. Out of the Elusive City mare Frida La Blonde, the €90,000 Arqana purchase is a full-brother to the smart Beat Le Bon.

First-season Shalaa is responsible for 18 winners to date, headed by Group 3 Breeders' Plate winner Shaquero in Australia and the stakes-placed Saeiqa, Legal Attack and No Speak Alexander, and will also stand for €15,000, reduced from €25,000 this year.

Olympic Glory was again finely represented by Group 1 winner Watch Me - who struck in the Prix Rothschild over the summer - and the promising Solario Stakes winner Etonian. He will stand for €5,000 (from €10,000 this year).
