Gr3 winning sprinter Sergei Prokofiev will stand at Whitsbury Manor Stud in 2021.
The son of Scat Daddy won the Gr3 Cornwallis Stakes at Newmarket and the Listed Rochestown Stakes at Naas as well as placing behind Calyx in the Gr2 Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot at two.
At three Sergei Prokofiev won the Listed Cork Stakes at Navan.
Whitsbury’s Ed Harper said in a statement the stud was delighted to have reached an agreement with Coolmore to be standing the son of Scat Daddy.
“We are immensely excited to stand Sergei Prokofiev. His turn of foot in the Cornwallis Stakes at Newmarket really had to be seen to be believed and his performance at Royal Ascot put him firmly alongside the season’s best two-year-olds,” Harper said.
“He is an imposing individual, typical of his sire Scat Daddy, with an exaggerated athletic walk, who will offer our clients an extremely commercial option for next season.”
A stud fee will be announced at a later date.
