Frankel claims leading Royal Ascot sire honours

Frankel came out on top in a diverse sires table for Royal Ascot in 2021, with three winners bolstered by two seconds and a third place.

The dual world champion was responsible for an opening day double courtesy of Listed Wolferton Stakes scorer Juan Elcano and then a one-two in the Copper Horse Stakes with Amtiyaz and Dubious Affair.

Juddmonte's leading sire was also provided with Wednesday's Gr.3 Hampton Court Stakes scorer Mohaafeth - a poignant winner for the late Sheikh Hamdan's Shadwell operation - while he was also responsible for two further placed runners in the Gr.1 Coronation Stakes runner-up Snow Lantern and Queen Alexandra Stakes third The Grand Visir.
