Juddmonte has today announced the retirement of Mandaloun to stand at Juddmonte USA in Kentucky.  

A striking son of Into Mischief who earned over $2 million on the racetrack, the Juddmonte  homebred is out of the Empire Maker mare Brooch. 

Hailing from one of the renowned families of the English and American stud books, in the past 12  generations, only one female line did not produce a black type runner. 

Mandaloun was undefeated as a juvenile. As a 3-year-old, he factored prominently into the Classic picture. He notched two Grade 1 victories. All told, Mandaloun recorded wins in the Kentucky Derby (Gr.1), Haskell Stakes (Gr.1),  Risen Star (Gr.2), Louisiana Stakes (Gr.3) and Pegasus Stakes. 

 one at a mile and  a quarter and the other at a mile and an eighth.  

Trained by Brad Cox, he commented: "This horse is the entire package, I don't know that I  have seen a better-looking son of Into Mischief. We knew we had something special right  out of the box. He had an exceptional turn of foot yet could carry his speed around two  turns". 

Juddmonte has set the stud fee at $25,000 stands and nurses. 

"Mandaloun is a true Juddmonte stallion. He is a gorgeous horse who should offer breeders  exceptional value when the time comes to sell their yearlings. We plan to support him in the  same manner we did with the likes of Empire Maker and Arrogate." said Garrett O’Rourke,  General Manager of Juddmonte USA.
