00:00This year, TDN Rising Star and Group 1 victor Pushkin will begin his stud career at Aradu
00:09Beaumont, where the son of Star Spangled Banner will stand alongside the likes of Young Sires
00:14Sealy Way and Ace Impact.
00:22We bought into Pushkin straight after his Group 1 win.
00:26He won a quite prestigious 7 furlong Group 1 in Deauville for Prix Jean Prat, a race
00:33that was won by Toudanot and Pinatubo in the past.
00:36He's a very good looking horse.
00:38He's by Star Spangled Banner, which obviously needs no introduction.
00:42And we liked also the fact that he was unbeaten as a two-year-old.
00:45He won the race three times and won three times, including a very, very impressive five
00:51lengths winning on debut.
00:54So he's got a lot of things going for him.
00:57And I think France do need horses able to produce fast and precocious horses.
01:04He was tough.
01:05He was genuine.
01:06He raced from 7 furlong to a mile.
01:10Quite versatile also as a three-year-old, but he was a real fast horse, a sprinter.
01:15And he won the Prix Jean Prat in a very, very good time, because he was just behind Zendi,
01:20the leader of Khalid Abdullah and Judd Mount.
01:23There was a very, very strong pace that day, right behind the leader, and about two, three
01:29furlongs from home.
01:30He was on his own, but you know, was very, very tough and won it very impressively.
01:42Pouchkine is a very good looking horse, lovely, lovely bay collar, very attractive head,
01:47good mover, very correct.
01:50I mean, everyone that has seen him already really loved him.
01:53Very good mind.
01:54His doctor was very, very positive about him and his trainer all the time.
01:57Very happy to have him home.
01:58And the other good thing about Pouchkine is the people that own him.
02:02He's owned by Mr. Augustin Normand, Alain Jatier, who bred him.
02:06And obviously, I had Beaumont, three teams of mares, and we support him strongly at the
02:11sales and also, obviously, sending mares to the horse.
