It’s what’s inside that
The hottest young stallion in the world – or his incredible first-crop son, the leader of his generation at both two and three? Or, what about the best racehorse for at least a decade? His first foals are drawing reviews from breeders the like of which we at Darley have never heard before… and we’re not exactly new to this! (For good measure, we stand his sire, too – and also another son, a real power-packed sprinter, new to stud in 2025.)
Turn the page and look at our roster: there’s lasting quality and up-to-the minute success everywhere you look. And if you do need help choosing, our team will be only too pleased to discuss your mares and your wishes with you.
Andy Makiv Managing Director
Broadsiding and Traf f ic Warden, photographed in March. Terms: inc GST. Payment on live foal (conditions apply).
A G1 winner at two and three, like his sire – and grandsire – before him, one a breed-shaping influence, the other the world’s hottest young stallion. The continuation of the line: Broadsiding. Send him a mare and you become part of the future history of our sport.
That’s what it’s been for descendants of Street Cry ever since wonder mare Winx zoomed down the outside lane all those years ago. OK, so Traffic Warden might not have led his generation like Street Boss’s best son Anamoe. And he didn’t quite manage to overtake Broadsiding in the Golden Rose. But second best to those two? That’s second to the best. Alike in shape and aptitude to his sire, he could yet be streets ahead at stud.
Turn to page 32 for more on Traffic Warden
A modern-day great and the best for at least a decade. With the strongest first book ever af forded a Darley stallion.
An amazing endorsement
The best foals I’ve seen at Godolphin in 15 years.’
Jason Walsh Head of Bloodstock
And another...
We bred the ver y best of our mares to him in year one. It is testament to the stallion, and to the foals we have, that we bred more to him in his second year. I have never been more confident about a young stallion.’
