We are proud to welcome home Al Hakeem, an Al Shaqab Racing homebred who was raised at Haras de Bouquetot. He carries an exceptional pedigree, blending two of the best bloodlines in European racing, and a most stunning individual, with a strong, athletic and well-balanced conformation.

Al Hakeem is a horse of great heart and courage, I've loved him since he walked into the yard as a yearling.

He has a real presence which is quite unusual and he reminds me a lot of Sottsass, albeit he is bay. He has the same walk, the same look and the same presence. I hope he can continue in the same vein. He has all the attributes of a future champion sire.
