CLASSIC-WINNING miler Dubawi (Dubai Millennium) is one of the all-time great stallions, and he has laid the groundwork to preserve his dynasty through a string of sons and daughters who are excelling at stud.

Al Kazeem, Makfi, New Bay, Night Of Thunder and Poet’s Voice are Group 1 winners who have sired at least one top-level winner at stud, with Makfi taking it further by having a Group 1-winning son (Make Believe) who has a first-crop classic star (Mishriff) on the books. Standouts such as Benbatl (new in 2022), Ghaiyyath (foals), Space Blues (new), and Too Darn Hot (yearlings) are at early stages of their new career, whereas Zarak and Time Test made an exciting start as freshmen in 2021.
