The Bloodstock Show returns for Sky Sports Racing, and we're starting with a bang!

We've visited Banstead Manor Stud, the centre of Juddmonte's European breeding operation - responsible for countless Classic and Group 1 winners, none more famous than the mighty Frankel.

In this two-part feature, Vanessa Ryle meets the big name stallions including Frankel, Kingman, Oasis Dream, Bated Breath, and the new boy Expert Eye, and also gets to know some of the premier mares on the farm, including the dams of star-names Enable and Calyx.

Juddmonte, a breeding colossus...

    They are such majestic creatures, horses always catch my attention and take my breath away. 💖 and it's great to see these very intelligent, sensitive stallions so well looked after, with their silky shimmering healthy coats and calm demeanour. Terrific. 👍🌿

    Wonderful establishment, wonderful staff and above all the greatest horses.
  • What beautiful stallions, so quiet and well behaved! What super care and affection they get, what a great video! Never saw such huge, clean stalls in my lifetime around horses. Kudos to Banstead Manor Stud, you are fantastic.

    Great report, very knowledgeable interviewer - well done all involved
  • @dpetty3461
    Thank you for this fantastic look at some of my favorite horses.
  • @rosserman2501
    Have done loads for UK racing. Warning my favorite racehorse. Frankel at $250k a pop.
  • @silenusut
    Rule asks some informative questions - nice one.
  • @kevinohara8671
    I will always wonder how Frankel would have done over a mile and a half we will never know

    For anyone to criticise any thing about Henry,s star, is a fool, or he is full with jealousy, or both.The greatest gentleman owner ever His Highness Prince Khalid Abdullah ,The best trainer ever (with Vincent O,brien) knew what he was and is. Plus these two greats did not have to put 4,5,6, horses in one race. They relied on their judgement of horses, not in numbers. your the best Frankel, and at the end of your stallion days, I think your progeny, will be even greater than the great Galileo. C.B-W. UK.
  • At 11:12, that dark bay mare with the blaze is Ventura (USA, 2004 dk b/br mare, by Chester House o/o Estala [Be My Guest])! I'm so sad that you didn't talk about her. She was one of my favorites on the track and it's so, so good to just see her. Is there a chance that ATR might go back to Banstead Manor to visit with her? Looks like she was either barren or miscarried for 2019, but produced a filly foal by Kingman in 2020.

    I thought Frankel's dad was Galileo not Dubawi. Does Rob Bowley actually know what horse he actually breeds.
