Last year's G1 Sussex S. scorer Mohaather (GB) (Showcasing {GB}) will stand his second season at Shadwell's Nunnery Stud in 2022 for a fee of £15,000, down slightly from his opening price of £20,000. The highest-rated son of Showcasing, Mohaather covered 146 mares this year.
Tom Pennington, nominations and marketing manager at Shadwell, said, “We've taken the decision to reduce Mohaather's fee for 2022 in recognition of the fact that there is a significant premium placed upon first-season sires in the commercial market, and that stallions entering their second year need to be competitively priced to reflect that reality. There is no question, considering how high stallion fees are across the board now, that £15,000 rates as fantastic value. Mohaather was an exceptional winner of the Sussex S., showing a
lethal turn of foot so rarely seen in milers, and he was also a group winner at two and three. He was given fantastic support from a diverse cross-section of breeders this year and consequently covered a strong book of mares. We're really looking forward to welcoming his first foals in 2022.”
Mohaather stands alongside Tasleet (GB) (Showcasing {GB}) and Eqtidaar (Ire) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}), who are both unchanged from 2021 at £5,000. Tasleet's first yearlings have sold for up to 80,000gns this year, while Eqtidaar's first foals are now on the ground.
The Nunnery Stud stallions will be available to view at Beech House Stud in Newmarket during the Tattersalls December Breeding Stock sale.
