Iffraaj and Raven's Pass, two stalwarts of the Darley roster, have been pensioned from stud duties and will enjoy their retirements at Dalham Hall Stud and Kildangan respectively.Iffraaj sired 14 individual Group 1 winners during his stud career, including champions Ribchester, Chrisellium and Rizeena, along with leading sire Wootton Bassett. Meanwhile, Breeders' Cup Classic winner Raven's Pass has also been a dependable source of talented horses, siring 13% Stakes horses and 7% Stakes winners to runners. His standout performer is Japanese star Tower Of London, now sire of a Group 1 winner himself. Raven's Pass also has a superb record as a broodmare sire, with four G1 winners including French Derby hero Mishriff, five-time Group-winning filly Saffron Beach, Prix de la Foret heroine Ramatuelle, and the 2024 Poule d'Essai des Pouliches scorer Rouhiya. Sam Bullard, Director of Stallions said, “Both Iffraaj and Raven's Pass have been rock solid as a source of Stakes horses, both as sires and more recently as broodmare sires.“The time is now right for them to retire from covering duties, but they will remain in their respective stallion yards where they will hopefully enjoy their retirement for many years to come.”The post “The Time Is Now Right” – Darley Stalwarts Iffraaj and Raven’s Pass Pensioned From Stud Duties appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
