03.11.2023
"Awtaad’s second elite winner was Anisette, who was eased down to win the Gr.1 Del Mar Oaks in August by two and a half lengths."
Derrinstown Stud resident Awtaad confirmed himself one of the best value sires in Europe by supplying two top-flight winners and a host of other high-class performers in 2023.
