The 2024 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe winner Bluestocking has been retired from racing.

Juddmonte announced the news on Monday morning, at the same time confirming that recent Group 1 winner Kalpana will race on in 2025.

The statment from Juddmonte said: "Following careful consultation with the family, it has been decided that Bluestocking should be retired to stud. In a stellar career, Bluestocking never finished out of the first four in her 13 career starts and won three Group 1 races in 2024, culminating in her win in the Group 1 Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe. She retires sound and healthy and will take up her next career at Juddmonte’s Banstead Manor Stud."

Trained by Ralph Beckett, Bluestocking is a four-year-old by Camelot.

The statment continued: "It has also been decided that Kalpana, our exciting three-year-old, who was unraced at two and ran eight times this year culminating in winning the Group 1 Qipco British Champions Fillies & Mares Stakes at Ascot, will remain in training for the 2025 season."

Kalpana is trained by Andrew Balding. She is by Study Of Man.

Douglas Erskine Crum, Juddmonte's chief executive, said: “It is not often that Juddmonte has had three outstanding fillies and mares at the same time and, as the season draws to a close, we have had some important decisions to make. Idiomatic [multiple Grade 1 winner in the US] retired last week after a minor injury kept her from attempting a repeat of her win in the Grade 1 Breeders’ Cup Distaff this Saturday. She won five Grade 1 races and was the leading filly and mare in the USA for the past two years.

"Bluestocking has been the leading four-year-old filly in Europe this year and the two together bring further outstanding quality to our broodmare band both in the UK and the US. Kalpana will continue to race for us next year and is clearly an exciting prospect.”

Barry Mahon, Juddmonte's European racing manager, added: "Bluestocking has given so much enjoyment over the last three seasons and we thank Ralph Beckett and his team at Kimpton Down Stables who have done such an excellent job with her”.

Mating plans for Idiomatic and Bluestocking will be decided at a later date.
