SHAMAN - ONE NOMINATION FOR THE 2024 BREEDING SEASON  

Standing at: Yeomanstown Stud (IRE)

Bred and raced by the Wertheimer family and trained by Carlos Laffon-Parias, he is out of their dual listed-winning Green Desert mare Only Green, who set the pace for superstar Goldikova on many occasions.

The mare is a half sister to Group 1 champion and "Blue Hen" Occupandiste — the immediate family of names such as Intello and Mondialiste and one of the deepest in the stud book.

Shaman was twice a winner at 2 and was second and third at Listed and Group level before running a creditable fifth in the Qatar Prix Jean-Luc Lagardere-Grand Criterium (G1).

As a 3-year-old, Shaman's victories in the Prix Omnium II and the Prix la Force (G3) set him up for the Emirates Poule d'Essai des Poulains (French Two Thousand Guineas, G1), where he was a length behind Persian King, followed by fifth in the St. James's Palace (G1) at Royal Ascot and a second place in the Prix du Haras de Fresnay-le-Buffard Jacques le Marois (G1) against his elders.

He beat a field including Group 1 winners Sottsass and Way To Paris in the Prix d'Harcourt, before finishing third to the former in the Prix Ganay (G1). 
 

NB All successful bidders must pay for their Lots no later than close of business on 18th January 2024.
