Librettist to shuttle to Westbury Stud, New Zealand

Darley stallion Librettist is to shuttle to Westbury Stud in Karaka, New Zealand for the forthcoming breeding season.

The exceptional son of Danzig was Europe’s highest rated older miler but was also a top-class Godolphin two-year-old, winning two of his three starts. After injury saw him miss his three-year-old season, Librettist returned to his winning ways as a four-year-old with a run of five increasingly impressive front-running victories, including two of Europe’s most competitive G1 mile races: the Prix Jacques le Marois and the Prix du Moulin.

A half-brother to proven G1 sire Dubai Destination, Librettist's first crop northern hemisphere crop are now yearlings.
