'They both have the right profiles' - full steam ahead for Haras d’Etreham's young sires as pair face first test at Arqana
Kitty Trice speaks to Nicolas de Chambure about Persian King and Hello Youmzain as Deauville sale approaches
Haras d’Etreham's status as one of Europe's finest studs and consignors is already well established, but with the first crop of yearlings from Persian King and Hello Youmzain set to grace the market over the coming months, there is no resting on laurels for the Normandy operation.
