Career Story

Performance in context.

UAE President Cup — UK Arabian Derby G1 PA · 2023.

AL DOHA won five of twelve starts and collected three Group 1 victories on turf: the UAE President Cup – UK Arabian Derby at Doncaster in 2023, the Coupe d'Europe des Chevaux Arabes at ParisLongchamp in 2024 and the Liwa International Stakes at La Teste later that year. She finished second to Al Ghadeer in the 2023 Qatar Arabian World Cup and the 2025 HH The Amir Sword. ERA records a turf rating of 118; the larger consolidated earnings figure of about €645,022 comes from a published multi-jurisdiction summary and is therefore labelled reported rather than presented as one authority's total.

Distance profile: 2,000–2,300 m

The archive focuses on the results that define the horse’s international profile. Complete race records and current status should always be checked with the responsible racing authority.

Research dossier

Three ways to read the profile.

Race record, family and practical relevance are read together — never as isolated headlines.

01

Read the race record

Results in context

AL DOHA is presented with 5 wins and 3 wins at Group 1/top level, with a documented distance profile of 2,000–2,300 m. Those figures become meaningful only when read with where, when and against whom the results were achieved.

02

Read the pedigree

Family before fashion

The Al Mourtajez × Topaze du Croate by Dormane cross is the starting point of this profile. The recurring names Al Mourtajez, Dahess, Dormane, Manganate become routes through the archive — not a mathematical promise of performance.

03

Why this profile belongs here

The lesson that remains

AL DOHA shows why an elite mare must be assessed through three layers at once: her own Group 1 performance, proven sire influences and the documented depth of the entire female family.

Pedigree

Documented pedigree and family map.

The documented cross should be read alongside female-family production, soundness, distance and surface. A name in a pedigree is a clue — never a guarantee.

Only names supported by the editorial research or a linked primary source are displayed. Missing generations are never filled with assumptions.

Female family

D’Jadie de Teoul family

AL DOHA reaches D'Jadie de Teoul through Topaze du Croate, while Nieshan reaches the same foundation mare through Jade des Pins. The link demonstrates family depth without treating every branch as equivalent.

Bloodline Story

Al Mourtajez × Dormane

AL DOHA is by Al Mourtajez, a son of Dahess, out of Topaze du Croate by Dormane. Second dam D'Jadie de Teoul takes the female line into a family also found behind Nieshan through his dam Jade des Pins. The combination of the mare's own Group 1 class, a documented sire line and deeper repeat family performance is what makes the profile useful. At the same time, there is no verified progeny record or final breeding status that justifies claims about her future production.

The documented cross should be read alongside female-family production, soundness, distance and surface. A name in a pedigree is a clue — never a guarantee.

Breeding Insight

Pedigree. Performance. Purpose.

As a mare, this profile shows why race performance and repeated female-family production must be assessed together. Any mating decision also requires conformation, health, fertility and a defined purpose.

AL DOHA shows why an elite mare must be assessed through three layers at once: her own Group 1 performance, proven sire influences and the documented depth of the entire female family.
