Juddmonte have had three broodmares who produced three Group winners from their first three foals – the first two to achieve the feat were Hasili and Toussaud. Not only did these mares go on to be awarded Broodmare Of The Year – they have also had stallion sons who sired Group/Grade 1 winners (Dansili, Cacique and Champs Elysees for Hasili; Empire Maker and Chester House for Toussaud). The third mare is Kind - the dam of Frankel.
Kind’s first foal was the Sadler’s Wells colt Bullet Train, winner of the Gr.3 Lingfield Derby Trial but more famously known as the pacemaker for Frankel. He started his stud career in Kentucky, as has Noble Mission, who memorably became a triple Group 1 winner in 2014 and has now sired multiple Grade 1 winner Code of Honor from his first crop. Kind’s fourth son to stand at stud is the Oasis Dream colt Morpheus, while her 2013 son Proconsul is also now a stallion - maintaining Kind's record of having all her sons standing at stud.
Kind’s only fillies to date are three-year-old Chiasma (by Galileo) and the dual Listed winner and multiple Group-placed Joyeuse (by Oasis Dream) - who retired to stud in 2015. Her first three foals, Jubiloso, Jovial and Maximal, are all winners and stakes performers. Her fourth foal Badge (2019) was a runner-up on his only start as a two-year-old. Her final foal is the 2021 Kingman colt Kikkuli, who is in training with the Charltons at Beckhampton – the place where not only Kind, but also Rockfest, the foundation mare of the family, were trained.
Kind’s only daughters are the winning Galileo filly Chiasma (whose first foal is a Dubawi filly born in 2023) and the dual Listed winner and multiple Group-placed Joyeuse (by Oasis Dream) - who retired to stud in 2015. Her first six foals are all winners and four of them, Jubiloso, Jovial, Maximal and Array, are all stakes performers.
Kind was a very talented sprinter who liked to race prominently. A six-time winner, including twice in Listed company, her speed could have been predicted from her strong physique but arguably not from her pedigree. Although she is by Danehill, her dam Rainbow Lake won the Lancashire Oaks over a mile and a half. A daughter of Rainbow Quest, Rainbow Lake had already produced the dual Group 1 winner Powerscourt the year before Kind was born, and subsequently the Group winners Last Train and Riposte. Rainbow Lake’s dam Rockfest was introduced into the Juddmonte broodmare band in 1983 – 30 years prior to Frankel, a third generation homebred, embarking on his own stud career.

Galileo well and truly established himself as the pre-eminent sire in the world. He produced at least two Group 1 winners and at least one Classic winner in each of his first 16 crops to race. He was the champion sire in Europe 12 times and 11 consecutively between 2010 - 2020, with his most successful crop to date being the one born in 2008. This group included nine individual winners at the highest level (five of which won Classics), headed by Frankel.
As a Derby-winning son of the legendary Sadler’s Wells and the Arc de Triomphe winner Urban Sea, Galileo had all of the elements to succeed. Since retiring to stud, his pedigree has received a major boost through the exploits of three Group 1-winning full/half-siblings, most notably the truly outstanding racehorse and leading sire Sea The Stars.
Galileo has already made a name for himself as a sire of sires with the number of his sons having produced Group winners into double figures. Two of these, the Gr.1 Dewhurst winners New Approach and Teofilo, both got off to the best possible start by siring two-year-old Group 1 winners and Classic winners in their first crops. Galileo’s other Dewhurst winner to have runners is none other than Frankel – who repeated the feat of having a Group 1 winning two-year-old and a Classic winner in his first crop. Frankel was the champion sire in Europe in 2021, establishing himself as the leading stallion son of Galileo despite only having six crops of racing age.

Some racehorses have moments of brilliance - Frankel was consistently brilliant. He is the only horse to have run to a Timeform rating in the 140’s seven times (recording the highest ever Timeform rating of 147). He is also the only horse to run to an official rating of 140 twice and is the highest rated horse since the International Classifications began. In an unbeaten career he was champion at two, three and four years of age (the only horse to achieve this feat unbeaten) – in the process setting a record for consecutive European Group 1 wins – and beating 23 individual Group/Grade 1 winners of 50 Group/Grade races by a cumulative winning distance of over 76 lengths.
There were many jaw-dropping moments in Frankel's career – his majestic 10-length victory in the Gr.2 Royal Lodge Stakes at two years; the raw power and exuberance of his front-running display in the Gr.1 2000 Guineas; his complete annihilation of the opposition in the Gr.1 Queen Anne Stakes; his effortless step up to 10½ furlongs in front of an appreciative Yorkshire crowd in the Gr.1 Juddmonte International; the sense of overwhelming happiness and relief tinged with sadness when he made his triumphant final start at Ascot in the Gr.1 Champion Stakes.
From soft ground to good to firm; over distances ranging from seven to 10½ furlongs; aged two, three and four – Frankel's long stride and outstanding natural ability carried him effortlessly through his racing career. As Tony Morris so eloquently writes, Frankel is: “The greatest horse most of us have seen, or will ever see… I’ve never known another horse with such a high cruising speed and the capacity to sustain maximum velocity for so long. He is a phenomenon.”
