First-Crop Yearling Sires Cupid and Classic Empire at Ashford Stud

GI-winning son of Tapit Cupid and juvenile champion Classic Empire are both seeing their first crop of yearlings enter the sales ring in the coming weeks. We checked in on the two sires at Ashford Stud.

Three of Ashford Stud's Grade I-winning stallions will be in the limelight in the coming weeks as they are represented by their first crop of yearlings in the sales ring. Three-time GIW Practical Joke (Into Mischief), the regally-bred Cupid (Tapit) and juvenile champion Classic Empire (Pioneerof the Nile) all ranked amongst the top of their class with the sale of their weanlings, and now look to continue the streak with their yearlings. We sat down with Coolmore's Adrian Wallace and discussed two of the young sires.
