CAMACHO TO STAND AT MICKLEY STUD FOR 2013




Exciting young sire Camacho is to join the stallion roster at Richard Kent's Mickley Stud in Shropshire for the 2013 breeding season, standing for a fee of ,2,750 (October 1 terms).

The son of Danehill, who was champion three-year-old sprinter, has already made a bright start to his stud career thanks to black-type winners such as 2013 1,000 Guineas contender Winning Express, a Listed scorer last year for Ed McMahon who was runner-up in the Group 1 Cheveley Park Stakes.

The high-class sprinter Humidor, a Listed winner who finished a close fourth in last season's Group 1 Nunthorpe Stakes, Group 3 Fred Darling Stakes heroine Puff, Roses Stakes winner Star Rover and Harry Rosebery Stakes scorer Arctic Feeling have been among his other flagbearers.

Yearlings by Camacho, a sibling to Gimcrack Stakes winner Showcasing, were also in high demand at the 2012 sales, making prices of 85,000,70,000 etc.

Richard Kent of Mickley Stud: AI have followed Camacho's career with great interest from the start and I am excited to be able to stand him in 2013. He has proved adept at siring sharp, precocious runners and offers everything commercial breeders are looking for in a stallion.

AHe is popular with trainers and has built an enviable record from his runners so far. With some exciting three-year-olds and two-year-olds to run for him in 2013, his reputation looks sure to keep growing.

Camacho will stand alongside Captain Gerrard, Multiplex, Overbury and Phoenix Reach at Mickley Stud for the 2013 season. www.mickleystud.com
