BOUTTEMONT
Bay, 2018, 16hh, retired sound in wind and limb
THE FASTEST-EVER SON OF ACCLAMATION TO RETIRE TO STUD
A Group 3-winning sprinter, he won the Prix Hampton over 5f at Chantilly in an electric time of 56.18 seconds
Acclamation’s stallion sons led by Champion Sires Dark Angel and Mehmas have already sired 31 individual Group 1 winners.
Bouttemont is Acclamation’s first son to retire to stud in Ireland since Mehmas in 2017.
Excellent first crop of foals- strong, correct and fluent-moving individuals bearing a striking resemblance to their sire and grandsire.
‘I have five foals by Bouttemont on the ground and across the board have been delighted with their size, quality, movement and temperaments. I used Acclamation a lot over the years and am seeing a lot of similarities in Bouttemont’s progeny to his which can only be a positive.’
Kevin Blake, Golden Farm
Colt x Angel’s Tale, bred by Kevin Blake Bloodstock
‘I am consigning some very nice foals by Bouttemont at the upcoming foal sales. They are strong, sprinting types with a great walk and I would expect them to develop into very smart yearlings in 2026.’
Dermot Cantillon, Tinnakill House
Filly x Be My Lady, bred by Tinnakill Bloodstock
‘We have bred two quality foals by Bouttemont, with good temperaments, are well put together and have plenty of size and scope. I have two mares in foal to him again this year.’
John Bourke, Hyde Park Stud
‘I have been very impressed with Bouttemont’s first foals bred on the farm. They have quality, size and substance and remind me a lot of Acclamation’s progeny.’

THE BEST OF STARTS
Bouttemont received a stellar book of mares in his first season which included proven dams responsible for the winners of Juvenile Stakes races Coventry Stakes, Dick Poole Stakes, Woodcote Stakes, etc. Gr.1 breeders that sent him multiple mares include Aidan and Annemarie O’Brien (Whisperview Trading), John Bourke (Hyde Park Stud) and the Cantillon family (Tinnakill House). 70% of Bouttemont’s 2024 mares are daughters or sisters of Stakes performers.
