Royal Ascot winner Agrotera retires

It is with great sadness that we announce that our first Royal Ascot winner, Agrotera, has been retired. She only once scaled the heights of that performance in The Sandringham when she won the Listed Snowdrop Fillies Stakes at Kempton earlier this year. She was then disappointing in the Duke Of Cambridge at Royal Ascot and suffered a career ending injury subsequently. 

She will be retired to Watership Down Stud with the rest of Mr Nielsen’s broodmares and will hopefully have a long and successful career at stud. 

I for one will never forget that day, seeing her carve her way through 22 horses on the Straight Mile at Ascot under a classic Jamie Spencer masterful ride.
