No Shuttle for Pour Moi

Media Release - Friday July 18

The 2011 Epsom Derby winner Pour Moi (IRE) will unfortunately not shuttle to Windsor Park Stud for the upcoming Southern Hemisphere breeding season.

While in quarantine in Newmarket, England, Pour Moi developed a problem and he will not travel to New Zealand on veterinary advice.

He is expected to return to Coolmore, Ireland in the near future.

"While it is disappointing news for Windsor Park and our industry, the welfare of the stallion is paramount and we look forward to his return next season," said Windsor Park studmaster Rodney Schick.

The classic winning son of champion sire Montjeu proved popular with southern hemisphere breeders during his first two seasons and was the leading freshman sire of weanlings at the recent sales.
