FIRST YEARLINGS

Gutaifan another quick son of Dark Angel

24/9/2018

 
Picture
GUTAIFAN (IRE) - 2013 grey horse
It is disappointing when a talented two-year-old doesn’t return to the track at three, instead going straight to stud. Fasliyev was injured, so that was understandable, and Holy Roman Emperor was reportedly being prepared for the classics when shipped to stud to replace the infertile George Washington. Teofilo remained in training at three but was unable to return to the track due to a setback, but he covered his first book at four.

Two of that trio became leading sires, and classic sires, whereas the other one was one of those stallions who make a flashy start with first-crop juveniles only to have that spark peter out. He has, however, sired many winners and some talented stakes winners.

Dark Angel, on the other hand, was a somewhat lowly-rated Group 1 Middle Park Stakes winner who was surprisingly packed off to stud rather than enter training at three. This was before the enhanced three-year-old sprint programme that has been such a tremendous addition to the calendar.

The move proved to be huge success and he now commands one of the highest fees in Europe. He is the stallion who gave us Group/Grade 1 stars Battaash, Harry Angel, Hunt, Lethal Force, Mecca’s Angel, and Persuasive, he has a growing string of sons at stud, and it could just be a matter of time before he gets his first Group 1 classic star.

​Those sire sons include Lethal Force, Tough As Nails, current freshmen Alhebayeb and Heeraat, and also Gutaifan, a leading sprint juvenile who, like his sire, covered his first book of mares as a three-year-old. The latter stands alongside his sire at Yeomanstown Stud.
Gutaifan's Timeform rating of 117 is higher than that of his sire (113), he was a Group 1-placed dual Group 2 scorer, finished down the field in the Group 1 Prix de l’Abbaye de Longchamp on his only time out of the frame, and from just over 200 mares mares in his initial season, he has 151 individuals in that first crop.

He is the best of eight winners out of Alikhlas (by Lahib), his dam’s siblings include listed scorer and dual 12-furlong Group 2-placed filly Sahool (by Unfuwain), and also the dams of Maraahel (by Alzao) and Ventura Storm (by Zoffany). The former, a dual Group 2 Hardwicke Stakes winner, was placed in a string of the top 10-12 furlong Group 1 events, while the latter, a 12-furlong Group 1 scorer in Italy and now Group 1-placed in Australia, was runner-up in the Group 1 St Leger.

So Gutaifan represents what has been a stamina-oriented immediate family, and it seems that his sire’s speed must have combined with that from the third generation of his pedigree, even though his unraced third dam, Manal (by Luthier), was a full-sister to the Group 1-placed middle-distance pattern winners Tip Moss and Twig Moss.

There you will find Group 3 Princess Margaret Stakes winner Muhbubh (by Blushing Groom), seven-furlong Group/Grade 2 scorers Kayrawan (by Mr Prospector) and Sayedah (by Darshaan), and six-furlong Group 2 winners Magical Memory (by Zebedee), Haatef (by Danzig), and Asfurah (by Dayjur), among others of note.

This is going to make Gutaifan an interesting prospect as a stallion, and, like his sire, he will probably get his best winners at anywhere from five to 10 furlongs.

GUTAIFAN (IRE) - gr.2013 - Dark Angel - Alikhlas, 4 wins inc Flying Childers Stakes (Gr2), Prix Robert Papin (Gr2), 2nd Prix Morny (Gr1). Sire in Ireland. First foals in 2017.
