CLASSIC-WINNING miler Dubawi (Dubai Millennium) is one of the all-time great stallions, and he will feature for a long time to come in the pedigrees of world-class performers thanks to a large number of sons who are excelling at stud.

Al Kazeem, Makfi, New Bay, Night Of Thunder, Poet’s Voice, Too Darn Hot and Zarak are among his sons who have sired at least one top-level winner at stud. All of these were Group 1 winners, and it is understandable that the National Stud would wish to have one of his sons too, albeit one who did not win at the highest level.
