Smart debut win for Decorated Knight colt
8 August 2021
Decorated Knight was represented by another winner on Sunday as Charming Knight made an impressive winning debut for trainer Brian Wilson at Klampenborg.

Owned by Maria Westmann, Charming Knight is the first foal out of the BDS-bred Charming Loza, a Lawman half-sister to the stakes-placed Bournemouth Belle. Further back, it is the family of Classic winner Just The Judge.
Decorated Knight made a brilliant start to his stud career when his very first runner, Silver Bullet Lady, made a winning debut in a hot conditions race at Salisbury for Roger Charlton.
Another daughter, Dominanta, is a winner in Poland.
A select group of first runners also includes the placed fillies Lady Fantasia and Mezannotte.

There are plenty of well regarded two-year-olds waiting in the pipeline as well. John Gosden’s yard houses Sobegrand, a half-brother to Group 2 winner Aljazzi, Damaar, a relation to Order Of St George, and a colt out of the Group 1 two-year-old Princess Noor.
Roger Charlton also trains Amjad, a colt out of Group 3-winning two-year-old Shaden, in addition to Silver Bullet Lady while Roger Varian trains Kind Gesture, a filly out of our Group 1 performer Dawn Of Hope.
Decorated Knight two-year-olds are also in the yards of Marco Botti, Sir Mark Prescott and Mark Johnston.
Decorated Knight was a brilliant multiple Group 1 winner who enjoyed his finest moments when successful in the Irish Champion Stakes, in which he beat a star studded field, Tattersalls Gold Cup and Dubai Sheema Classic.
He is also beautifully bred as a Galileo son of Pearling, a sister to multiple champion sire Giant’s Causeway.
Decorated Knight stands at the Irish National Stud.
