Frankel stands in England.
They shipped the mare over to him I assume.
When it says "Ky. Bred" that isn't actually where the mare was bred
(impregnated or covered), it was where the mare gave birth to the foal (dropped or foaled).
An American example of this is Northern Dancer who stood in Maryland.
All the mares that went to him were impregnated (covered) in Md. but they usually gave birth ( dropped or foaled) in another state, often times Ky.
Thus they were considered Ky. breds or whatever state the mare was in when when giving birth.
Hope that helps.
