Shadwell named outstanding owner

SHEIKH HAMDAN BIN RASHID AL MAKTOUM

Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid al Maktoum’s Shadwell Stable had a banner year in 2006 with Horse of the Year, champion older male, and Breeders’ Cup Classic Powered by Dodge (G1) winner Invasor (Arg) and Belmont Stakes (G1) winner Jazil. Shadwell matched that success in 2007 en route to capturing the Eclipse Award for outstanding owner.

Shadwell won eight graded stakes—including five Group or Grade 1 races—last season. Invasor and Lahudood (GB), who won the Flower Bowl Invitational Stakes (G1) and the Emirates Airline Breeders’ Cup Filly and Mare Turf (G1), each scored two Grade 1 triumphs and Daaher annexed the Hill ‘n’ Dale Cigar Mile Handicap (G1) and Jerome Handicap (G2).

When the earnings from Invasor’s Emirates Airline Dubai World Cup (UAE-G1) victory are included, Shadwell finished second among owners in purse earnings for the year with $7,049,878.

Sheikh Hamdan, the older brother of Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al Maktoum, serves as Dubai’s deputy ruler and minister of finance and industry. He owns a total of seven stud farms worldwide—five in England, one in Ireland, and the 1,350-acre Shadwell Farm in Lexington—as well as about 200 mares across the globe.

“A win is a win everywhere, whether it’s in America or in Europe or in the Emirates—which to me is special,” Sheikh Hamdan, 58, told Daily Racing Form in December. “To me, I am very happy. I was lucky to get good horses the last two years in America.”
