Darley has confirmed two new stallions, Hallowed Crown and Shooting To Win, are heading to Kildangan Stud from Australia for next year. They are two of four stallions who will ‘reverse shuttle’ to Europe in 2016. The other two are multiple Group 1 winner Brazen Beau (above), who goes to Dalham Hall in Newmarket, while Sidestep goes to Haras du Logis in France.

Hallowed Crown, by Street Cry’s Kentucky Derby winner Street Sense, was an unbeaten group race winner at two. He recorded impressive Group 1 wins over seven furlongs and a mile at three, and was successful in six of his nine starts. He retired with a Timeform rating of 125 and is currently in his first season at Kelvinside, Darley’s New South Wales headquarters.
