00:00Reem 3 is fast becoming a proper blue hen for her owner breeder Sheikh Mohammed Obaid.
00:07Her offspring have a particularly fine record at Royal Ascot, and this week she'll be
00:11represented by two of her grandsons, Rosalian and Inasherin.
00:16The 21-year-old mare lives here in Newmarket at Dalham Hall Stud, alongside two of her
00:20Group 1 winners, Triple Time and Ajman Princess.
00:25It's very special indeed, and it now spans back over five generations.
00:31This creation has been very much one of Sheikh Mohammed Obaid's creation, and it's been his
00:39great passion which he's indulged in, and he obviously has encouraged us to use the
00:44best quality stallions around.
00:46We're now arriving at the stage where we're hopefully creating very high-class animals,
00:52Group 1 winners in certain cases already, classic winners very recently, and perhaps
00:59a couple of nice stallion prospects as well.
01:03She began from a fairly humble beginning.
01:04She was listed place herself as a racehorse.
01:08Because physically she was an all-quality mare, she wasn't a difficult one to mate up
01:13physically, and of course had some wonderful oil crosses of Mildred Ethan Ever Bend in
01:19her pages as well.
01:21So she suited a variety of stallions.
01:23She's one of those mares I often feel that she's much better off and happier pregnant,
01:27and she's had a year of foal just about every year.
01:31She was foaling late last year, so we gave her the year off, and if she was all right
01:36and looking the part, we would have one more go with Frankel this year.
01:39She got in foal first cover, looks tremendous, and she's got a grin on her face again.
01:45He's sharing the paddock with Modern Games, Modern Ideals, and Modern Games' mum.
01:51They're two close mares and two blue hens.
01:55Triple Time has been extremely well supported, and like I say, his best win obviously was
02:01the opening fixture of two Royal Ascot, a wonderful way to kick it all off, beating
02:05in spiral.
02:06Wonderful looking horse, beautifully bred, and he's already a stallion prospect and a
02:12stallion in his own right.
02:13Hopefully it'll be a very successful one.
02:16Agiman Princess herself emerging now as a very classic type of broodmare, I think.
02:22She's a beauty, she is a Group 1 winner herself as well, and now she's bred a sprinter who
02:27looks like, I would say he's probably just as effective over seven foalings if it ever
02:31comes to that, but there's versatility right across the page, so very exciting.
02:37In the same page now we've got Rosalien, who's also a classic winner.
02:40It just could be a serious stallion page emerging, and of course dual Royal Ascot winner over
02:46five and six foalings, Blue Point needs no introduction, and he's very well represented
02:51aside from Rosalien in the Royal Meeting next week too.
02:55So very exciting times, it's great to see that a stallion of Blue Point's calibre can
03:02actually sire a classic winner over a mile, so we're very excited.
