A DERBY winning son of a Derby winner, Sisfahan has a distaff pedigree that would not be out of place in the Goffs Land Rover Sale or the Tattersalls Ireland Derby Sale catalogues.

While his victory in the Group 1 Deutsches (German) Derby was something of a shock, having just been stakes-placed in a listed race prior to gaining his second career success, this win should certainly make stallion owners outside Germany, and breeders too, consider the merits of his sire, Isfahan. That stallion’s pedigree provides an outcross for the majority of mares at stud in Europe.
