Former Darley shuttler Night Of Thunder (Dubawi) will cover a limited book of mares to Southern Hemisphere time this season.
The son of Dubawi (Dubai Millennium) stands at Darley's Kilgangan Stud in Ireland and shuttled to Australia for just one season in 2016. He has made a good start to his stallion career having sired 14 stakes winners to date headed by Italian Group 2 winner Night Colours. He has sired five Group 3 winners including Blue Diamond Preview (Gr 3, 1000m) winner A Beautiful Night and recent Jersey Stakes (Gr 3, 7f) winner Molatham and is firing at a rate of 12.2 per cent stakes winners to runners in Europe.
Night Of Thunder is currently sitting third in the leading first season sires table by earnings in Australia behind Pride Of Dubai (Street Cry) and Spill The Beans (Snitzel). He stood for a fee of €25,000 at Kildangan Stud this year.
