Isaac Shelby | Newsells Park Stud

The multiple Group winner and G1 Poule d'Essai des Poulains runner-up Isaac Shelby (GB) has had his first mares scanned in foal, Newsells Park Stud announced on Tuesday.

The dual winner Rio's Cliff (GB) (Canford Cliffs {Ire}) is among those confirmed to be carrying to Isaac Shelby, whose sire, Night Of Thunder (Ire), is responsible for the most-accomplished performer out of the mare to date in the Listed-placed Rex Of Thunder (GB). Another mare from Isaac Shelby's first book to have been scanned in foal is Asamosa (American Pharoah), a daughter of the GII Santa Ynez Stakes heroine Renee's Titan (Bernstein).

Julian Dollar, general manager at Newsells Park Stud, said, “We're delighted that Isaac Shelby has got off to such a great start at stud, which is testament to his wonderful temperament. Isaac Shelby was hugely talented–even better than his sire at two and a proper Guineas horse, too–credentials which are proving popular with breeders.”
