Dark Angel – Beatrix Potter (Cadeaux Genereux)
Oct 1, Special Live Foal. Standing at Dalham Hall Stud, Newmarket

Exceptional source of sprinting Stakes winners – in Europe in 2024, only Havana Grey and Dark Angel have more aged three and up. He’s level with Blue Point and Kodiac, above Starspangledbanner, Mehmas, No Nay Never. His G1 Irish 1,000 Guineas runner-up A Lilac Rolla is undefeated except for her G1 places. Also sire of Diligently who broke his maiden in the £500k Goffs sales race. Three G1 horses in Australia, strong sales prices led by a 150,000gns colt and his yearlings and foals of 2025 are from his biggest crops since his first.
