BALLYHANE Stud has added Group 2-winning juvenile Asymmetric to its stallion roster for 2024.

By Showcasing, Asymmetric was trained by Alan King to win the Group 2 Richmond Stakes at Goodwood in 2021. The colt was only beaten by a head in the Group 2 July Stakes the same year and finished third to Perfect Power in the Group 1 Prix Morny.

Asymmetric spent his three-year-old career in the US, where he gained blacktype, before returning to Europe this year and winning at listed level in France.

A half-brother to Millstream, a Group 3-winning sprinter for Jane Chapple-Hyam this year, Asymmetric is out of the winning Hellvelyn mare Swirral Edge. This is the family of Group 2 Flying Childers Stakes winner Wunders Dream.

Ballyhane Stud owner Joe Foley said, “With Soldier’s Call joining Dullingham Park, we are delighted to welcome another son of Showcasing to Ballyhane.

“We’ve seen what they can do, with Soldier’s Call’s exciting first crop in 2023, and another son of Showcasing being responsible for the high-class sprinter Bradsell. Asymmetric is made very much in that mould, and is a tremendously good-looking colt. With his speed, class and pedigree I’m confident he will be a popular choice with breeders.”

His fee has been set at €7,000.
