#Grange Stud's stalwart sire #Milan has been crowned Champion Sire for the 2019-2020 National Hunt season. With earnings of £1,908,347 in prize-money, the son of Sadler's Wells finished in front of reigning champion #Flemensfirth , with #Oscar finishing fourth and #Yeats fifth. “He was a five-length winner of the St Leger by Sadler's Wells and is from the excellent family of Kahyasi, so it's fair to say hopes were always high for him. He's lived up to expectations by providing top-class jumpers year after year, and so the Champion sire title is well deserved. As the likes of Santini and Monalee showed this past year, he puts a lot of class into his stock. It bodes well for the younger St Leger winners from the Sadler's Wells line that we have here. Leading Light, by Montjeu, has his first four-year-olds this year and has started to get some nice winners in point-to-points, and then we have Galileo's son Capri just starting out; he of course beat Crystal Ocean and Stradivarius at Doncaster and has been impressing visitors with his physique.” Albert Sherwood #CoolmoreNHSires #HomeOfChampions #Grange #Coolmore #Horses #Horseracing #HorsesOfInstagram #Thoroughbred
