heres something from racingpost:
FFRAAJ will shuttle to the Auckland-based Haunui Stud in New Zealand for the upcoming southern hemisphere season, where he will stand for NZ$12,000 (£4,454/6,523) + GST.
The six-year-old son of Zafonic is currently serving a book of 150 mares at a fee of 12,000 in his first northern hemisphere season at Darley's Kildangan Stud.
We had been made aware that Iffraaj was available and the more we found out about the horse, the harder it was to find any other that matched his credentials, Mark Chitty of Haunui Farm told New Zealand Thoroughbred Update.
He scored a tick in every box of our stallion section criteria and when we compared him to other horses that were available, there was just no contest.
Iffraaj's finest moment came when defeating a high-class field by four lengths in the Group 2 Lennox Stakes. He also registered back-to-back victories in the Group 2 Park Stakes and finished a head second to Les Arcs in the Group 1 July Cup.
From the immediate family of Cape Cross, Diktat and Russian Rhythm, Iffraaj will be limited to 120 mares.
