Kind, the dam of Series legend Frankel, is to be covered by 2014 Timeform Horse of the Year Kingman later this year.

Winner of the St James’s Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot and the QIPCO Sussex Stakes at Glorious Goodwood, Kingman will begin his new career as a stallion for Juddmonte Farms at Banstead Manor from Valentine’s Day – the official start of the British breeding season.

The mare, who was trained by Roger Charlton, has produced QIPCO British Champions Day hero Frankel and last year’s QIPCO Champion Stakes winner Noble Mission among her progeny.

Group One winners that are set to visit Kingman include Emulous, Etoile Montage, Passage Of Time, Promising Lead and Proportional, as will Winter Sunrise, dam of 2013 Markel Insurance Nassau Stakes winner, Winsili.
