A EUROPEAN champion miler as a three-year-old in 2016, and almost certain to have similar honours for 2017 when he won three more Group 1 events at that distance, Ribchester is definitely a major attraction as one of the new stallions at Kildangan Stud this spring. What is more, he has a wonderful outcross pedigree, inbred to Nureyev but without either Danzig or Sadler’s Wells.
