GUN RUNNER ADDS DEPTH AT THREE CHIMNEYS
HEADLINE XYXYXYXXYXYXY
By Nicole Russo
After Gun Runner gamely turned back Collected to win the Breeders’ Cup Classic at Del Mar, co-owners Three Chim-neys Farm and Winchell Thor-oughbreds were reminded that they had yet to announce the horse’s plans for 2018.
“We meant after the party,” Three Chimneys’ Goncalo Torrealba promptly responded to the crew gathered for the post-race press conference.
“Great answer,” trainer Steve Asmussen said with a laugh.
But now, the party is almost
over. Gun Runner, a virtual lock
to be voted Horse of the Year, is wintering at Fair Grounds in New Orleans as he targets the $16 million Pegasus World Cup Invitational in late Janu-ary. That will mark his final career start, after which he will head to Three Chimneys Farm in time for the Northern Hemi-sphere breeding season that begins in mid-February. One of the continent’s most antici-pated new stallions of 2018, Gun Runner will debut for an adver-tised fee of $70,000.
There was initially “a lot, a
lot, a lot,” of talk, according to Torrealba, about campaigning Gun Runner for a full season as a 5-year-old, potentially concluding with the 2018 Clas-sic at his home track, Churchill Downs. But once he won the 2017 Classic – with a Beyer Speed Figure of 117 – those discussions changed, with the risk and economic factors ultimately too prohibitive to consider running him beyond the Pegasus. The Pegasus, slated for Jan. 27, falls just two days after the Eclipse Awards ceremony at Gulfstream Park.
“I’ll be sad not to see him race
next year, because, frankly, he’s doing phenomenal,” said Ron Winchell, who operates Winchell Thoroughbreds with his mother, Joan. “It’s not easy to put something away that is working so good. He doesn’t have any nagging problems, he’s 100 percent sound, healthy. The economics [are a factor], plus the fact he’s accomplished about all he can accomplish – he really doesn’t have anything to prove at this point.”
Regardless of the Pegasus result, Gun Runner’s team

Gun Runner, by Candy Ride, will make one final start in the Pegasus World Cup before heading to stud at Three Chimneys Farm.
PAGE 4 Saturday, December 9, 2017 DAILY RACING FORM DRF.COM/BREEDING
will look back on his career with pride. The consistent son of Candy Ride currently sports a career mark of 11-3-2 from 18 starts and earnings of $8,998,500. He posted his first Grade 1 score against older horses in last year’s Clark Handicap, and this summer and fall ripped through top-level tallies in the Stephen Foster Handicap by seven lengths, Whitney by 5 1/4 lengths, and Woodward by 10 1/4 lengths before the Classic. His four other graded stakes victories are led by the 2016 Louisi-ana Derby. His notable stakes placings include a runner-up effort to Arrogate in the Dubai World Cup, a second in the 2016 Breeders’ Cup Dirt Mile, and a game third-place finish in the Kentucky Derby, not wilting after running on a hot pace.
“He doesn’t owe us anything,” Asmussen said.
Gun Runner represents the first partnership between the Winchell family, which campaigned and holds an inter-est in leading sire Tapit, and Three Chimneys, under the leadership of the Brazilian Borges-Torrealba family, which acquired a controlling inter-est from farm founder Robert Clay in 2013. Three Chimneys acquired Gun Runner as a yearling in a package deal from breeder Besilu Stables. The latter had purchased his dam, Grade 2 winner Quiet Giant, out of the record-breaking dispersal of the stock of the late Edward P. Evans at the 2011 Keeneland November breeding stock sale. The following spring, Besilu principal Benjamin Leon bred the mare to Candy Ride.
The resulting foal, Gun Runner, was originally slated to be sold at auction as a 2-year-old, but the colt caught the eye of Ron Winchell, and a partner-ship was forged.
“I have been fortunate enough to own several great horses, but Gun Runner is clearly at the top of my list,” Winchell said. “He is the horse of a lifetime. His brilliance was recogniz-able early and improved with every season. His consistency, soundness, and race recovery were comparable to none. These traits should serve him well as a
stallion.”Kentucky-bound stallion
prospects who made their final starts in the Breeders’ Cup immediately headed for their respective farms in order to take advantage of the opportu-nity to be showcased to domes-tic and international breeders in town for Kentucky’s major mixed-market sales in Novem-ber. This presented a hurdle for Gun Runner, who was to remain in training. But since the colt got a week of downtime following the Classic, his sched-ule was adjusted to give him an abbreviated window of show-ing. Instead of spending the week walking Asmussen’s shed row at Churchill Downs, he instead spent it about an hour away in Lexington at Three Chimneys, accompanied by a team led by assistant trainer Scott Blasi, so as not to upset his routine. He shipped from there to Fair Grounds.
“We wanted to do what’s best for the horse,” said Grant Williamson, director of stallion nominations and sales at Three Chimneys. “He knows those guys, those guys know him very well. They’ve been with him for three years. We were making
changes anyway, bringing him to the farm, you don’t want to make too many chances at once.”
Williamson said breed-ers were impressed by Gun Runner’s physical condition and level of energy following the Classic.
“You really want to get people in the door to see him in the flesh, because when you run a race like that, and he comes off the van and looks the way he looks, it makes a big impression on people,” he said.
Racetrack accomplishments aside, Gun Runner is bred to be a stallion. His sire is Argentin-ian champion Candy Ride, a son of Ride the Rails who came to the United States to win the Pacific Classic. Perennially among the nation’s top 10 sires, Candy Ride is showing promise as a sire of sires. His son Twirling Candy was the second-leading fresh-man sire of 2015, behind only record-setting Uncle Mo, and has continued to produce, repre-sented by graded winners Danz-ing Candy, Finley’sluckycharm, and Morticia this year alone.

membered have both sired graded stakes performers. Candy Ride has two other sons coming to stud in Kentucky this year in unbeaten Grade 1 winner Mastery at Claiborne Farm and graded winner Unified at Lane’s End, alongside his sire.
Gun Runner’s “pedigree is an outcross to every good North American mare,” Torrealba said. “Candy Ride, I think he belongs to America now. He’s a marvelous outcross to Tapits, to A.P. Indys, you name it.”
Gun Runner also has a chance to carry on the family line of 2005 Horse of the Year Saint Liam, among the several stakes-performing half-siblings to Quiet Giant. Saint Liam stood only one season at stud before a freak, fatal accident in which be broke his leg rearing while being led to his paddock. His lone crop of 98 foals included 10 stakes winners and another eight stakes-placed runners, led by 2011 Horse of the Year Havre de Grace and graded stakes winners Buddy’s Saint, Liam’s Dream, and Upgrade.
“I am a big believer in top families, and with two Horses of the Year in his first two dams, one could make a case that there is no more active or relevant pedigree in the stud book today than that of Gun Runner,” Torrealba said.
Asmussen has often refer-enced Saint Liam while discussing Gun Runner’s career trajectory, noting that the 2005 champion was a later-developing horse who won his first Grade 1 at age 4 and had his best season at age 5.
Gun Runner “obviously is bigger, stronger [in 2017], every-thing that his pedigree indi-cated would happen,” Asmus-sen said. “Being a Candy Ride out of a Giant’s Causeway mare, he’s half to Saint Liam, who was best as an older horse, had to obviously come to fruition. And he’s a bigger, stronger, better version. That’s a lot of travel this year, lot of fast races, and I think he’s better than he’s ever been.”
David Fiske, longtime
manager for Winchell Thor-oughbreds, also has given credit to broodmare sire Giant’s Cause-way, who stands at Coolmore’s Ashford Stud, for Gun Runner’s toughness and durability.
“Coolmore ran a whole ad campaign about Giant’s Cause-way being ‘The Iron Horse,’ and I think that’s where [Gun Runner] gets it from,” Fiske said. “He’s just as tough as they come. He’s like one of those guys in a movie – you knock him down, he gets right back up and goes, ‘Bring it on!’ ”
While most of the family is later-developing, William-son noted that Gun Runner displayed some of the precocity that is valued in the American bloodstock market. The colt won his first two career starts as a juvenile, then finished fourth in a salty edition of the Grade 2 Kentucky Jockey Club Stakes, running on a wet track, which is responsible for his only two unplaced efforts.
“We have reason to think he can get earlier types of horses,” Williamson said. “He did show up at 2, and he’s just had a constant development each year.”
Williamson also pointed to Gun Runner’s physical build and conformation as an indi-cator of future success in the market.
“He’s a beautiful horse. He’s bigger than people think – we sticked him at 16.2” hands, Williamson said. “He’s a very clean-limbed horse. He’s got great balance. He uses himself phenomenally well. When you watch him walk, he really does have a great low action, which you see translates to him on the racetrack. He’s got a phenom-enal stride. He’s a very even horse all through his motions. I think he’s so balanced he’s going to fit a lot of mares, which is always important.”
As for those mares, Winchell and Torrealba said they both plan to launch Gun Runner’s stud career by supporting him with top mares from each of their respective broodmare bands. Torrealba, specifically, said that he will breed the dams
of champion La Verdad and Grade 1 winner Twirling Candy to the young stallion, along with Breeders’ Cup Distaff winner Stopchargingmaria and Grade 1 winners Malibu Prayer and Pure Clan.
Gun Runner will be a major addition to the young stallion roster at Three Chimneys. Only two of the six stallions on the roster – Sky Mesa and Caleb’s Posse – currently have foals of racing age. Champion Will Take Charge and Strong Mandate both have yearlings who were well received this sale season, while Belmont Stakes winner Palace Malice and Fast Anna have their first weanlings this year.
“It’s gaining its legs right now,” Williamson said of the roster. “Gun Runner is obvi-ously a very significant addi-tion to it, but it was already heading in the right direction.
I feel that the yearlings we saw go through this year were kind of indicative of what we’ve been seeing since they were foals. You stand horses with those kind of physicals, that’s what you hope to produce, and the market responded. That’s what we’re trying to do.
“We’ve got to be very deliber-ate in our selection process,” he continued. “You’re projecting four or five years out, which is the challenge.”
With Gun Runner, the party at Three Chimneys may be just getting started.

ARROGATE BRINGS PROMISE OF ‘TRUE DIRT SPEED’By Nicole Russo
It’s about a 10-minute drive from Taylor Made Farm, where Unbridled’s Song once reigned supreme, to Juddmonte Farm, where Arrogate now occupies a spacious, deeply bedded stall in the stallion barn.
Leif Aaron knows those winding roads along Tates Creek on the south side of Lexington well. He began his career in the Thoroughbred industry as a groom at Juddmonte 17 years ago, and worked in a variety of capacities – including pedi-gree research, stakes filly recruiting, and investment portfolios – over several years at Taylor Made, which stood Unbridled’s Song and sold a mare named Bubbler to Clearsky Farm. This year, Aaron rejoined Juddmonte to manage the careers of its stallions, including the son of Unbridled’s Song and Bubbler, a tall gray who eerily resembles his late sire.
“I think he’s very similar to Unbridled’s Song overall, especially when you look at his coloring, his size, the quality he brings to the table,” Aaron said. “This guy is a bit shorter in the back, maybe a little bit, with a little bit more leg. … [The impression he gives is] he’s a speedster, and it’s amazing he could carry that speed like he could.”
Arrogate, who leads all North Ameri-can runners with $17,422,600 in career earnings, is among the latest champions to emerge from the sire line of Kentucky Derby winner Unbridled. The stallion, champion son of Fappiano, has been profoundly influential, particularly in American classic-distance races, despite his premature death in 2001 at age 14. Unbridled sired a winner of every Triple Crown race, with 1996 Kentucky Derby winner Grindstone emerging from his first crop as Unbridled’s Song, running on a bar shoe, finished a creditable fifth as the favorite. He was followed by 2000 Preakness Stakes winner Red Bullet and 2003 Belmont Stakes victor Empire Maker, a Juddmonte homebred. Empire Maker is responsible, via his classic-placed son Pioneerof the Nile, for Triple Crown winner and Horse of the Year American Pharoah and classic-placed champion Classic Empire. Another classic-placed son of Empire Maker, Bodemeister, sired Kentucky Derby winner Always Dream-ing in his first crop. Grindstone’s son Birdstone won the 2004 Belmont Stakes, and his first-crop sons Mine That Bird and Summer Bird accounted for two-thirds of the 2009 Triple Crown series. Another son of Unbridled, Broken Vow, has been a quiet stalwart, with Breeders’ Cup Juve-nile Fillies winner and champion Cham-pagne Room his most recent standout.
“It’s hard to come up with that true dirt speed,” Aaron said. “That’s what a lot of Americans want, dirt speed and the abil-ity to go a classic distance.”
Unbridled’s Song stood at Taylor Made from his retirement in 1997 until his death in 2013 and was the family operation’s flagship stallion. He is the sire of Eclipse Award champions Arrogate, Midshipman, and Will Take Charge; Canadian cham-pion Embur’s Song; a trio of Breeders’ Cup Distaff winners in Unbridled Elaine, Unrivaled Belle, and Forever Unbridled; and Breeders’ Cup Dirt Mile winner Liam’s Map, among his many other stakes performers. And yet, Unbridled’s Song’s
sons have been only moderately success-ful at stud to date. Juddmonte homebred First Defence sired its champion Close Hatches; Midshipman sired the consistent campaigner Lady Shipman; and Even the Score turned out a pair of Grade 1 winners in Dullahan and Take the Points.
Arrogate is one of several accomplished young sons of Unbridled’s Song to go to stud in recent years. Champion Will Take Charge, standing at Three Chimneys, has been well received with his first crop of yearlings at sale; Liam’s Map, standing at Lane’s End, has weanlings this year.

“We’re really seeing the best sons of Unbridled’s Song to go to stud yet,” Aaron said. “That side of the line is ready to take off.”
Arrogate was bred by Clearsky Farm, which sold him at the 2014 Keeneland September yearling sale for $560,000. Juddmonte purchased him to fit its new California string, having decided to re-expand into that region after a hiatus following the death of Hall of Fame trainer Bobby Frankel.
Juddmonte tapped another Hall of Famer, Bob Baffert, as trainer, but, recalled Juddmonte manager Garrett O’Rourke, “Our breeding program didn’t quite produce the sort of horses that Bob trained, and [owner Prince Khalid Abdul-lah] said, ‘Well, buy some horses then.’ ”
Baffert scouted out Arrogate working with bloodstock agent Donato Lanni, in conjunction with O’Rourke.
“Not only do we have a short list, but then we send it back to Prince Khalid, and he has the final thing,” Baffert said during Arrogate’s 3-year-old campaign. “If he’s all right with the pedigree – he made it known that he not only wants to try to get a good horse, but a good stallion with good pedigree. So he fit – you know, we had to check all the boxes.”
Juddmonte purchased 16 yearlings at three editions of the Keeneland Septem-ber sale from 2013 to 2015. In October 2015, Baffert called O’Rourke to update him on the unstarted son of Unbridled’s Song.
“I said, ‘Garrett, I think I’ve found one that’s going to pay for all of them. I said, ‘I think we’ve stumbled onto a really good horse,’ ” Baffert said. “He showed run as a 2-year-old, and he had some shin prob-lems. He was a big, tall horse, so Garrett says, ‘You know what, just give him the time. Don’t worry about it.’ ”
Arrogate made his debut in April of his 3-year-old season, finishing third at Los Alamitos. He won next out at Santa Anita, which would kick off a seven-race win streak. He followed the maiden score with a pair of allowance victories at Santa Anita and Del Mar before Baffert launched him into the deep end, shipping cross-country for a wide-open edition of the $1.25 million Travers Stakes. The field included classic winners Exaggerator and Creator, plus future Grade 1 winners Gun Runner and Connect. It was Arrogate’s coming-out party. He romped by 13 1/2 lengths and finished the 1 1/4 miles in 1:59.36, smash-ing General Assembly’s 37-year-old track record.
“I rode his father – he looks so much like
his father,” jockey Mike Smith said after the Travers. “He was an unbelievably talented horse, and his son might be even more talented. It’s crazy. He just did a mile and a quarter, and as you can see gallop-ing out, I had trouble getting him to stop. We headed for home, and he picked it up when I asked him. I was amazed how he lengthened his stride the last sixteenth of a mile and opened up.”
From there, the rest is history, Arro-gate ran down California Chrome to win the $6 million Breeders’ Cup Classic, then crushed the two-time Horse of the Year when winning the inaugural $12 million Pegasus World Cup Invitational. He then turned in a virtuoso performance in the $10 million Dubai World Cup. After break-ing slowly, he rallied past Gun Runner in the stretch to win by 2 1/4 lengths. That series of indelible performances, despite losing his final three career starts, made Arrogate a highly anticipated stallion prospect, with his $75,000 introductory fee the highest of the year in North America.
Juddmonte announced prior to the Breeders’ Cup that the Classic would mark Arrogate’s final career start – deciding to pass on a bid for a Pegasus repeat in Janu-ary in favor of allowing the horse time to let down and adjust to farm life, and giving breeders more time to view him.
“The good horsemanship way to do it is to retire him after the Breeders’ Cup, let the horse let down, relax, and from the marketing point of view, the right thing to do is allow the breeders to view the horse so they may select the absolute best mates for the horse based on the evalua-tion of his good looks and conformation,” O’Rourke said at the time. “Obviously, if you only arrive at the farm in February, that will make the decision more difficult for breeders.”
Arrogate’s book size has been set at 142 for his initial season. Juddmonte, which breeds to race, has been preparing for his arrival for months by carefully consider-

In the early part of this century, stud fees for incoming Kentucky stallions were soaring. Horse of the Year Ghostzapper (Adena Springs) entered stud for $200,000 in 2006 – a debut fee it would take a decade, and a Triple Crown winner, to match – while champions Smarty Jones (Three Chimneys) and Bernardini (Darley) cashed in on their racetrack accomplishments to the tune of $100,000.
But the crash and subsequent recession of late 2008 hit the Thoroughbred blood-stock and sales industry hard, and with a selective market trending toward proven stock, debut stud fees became one of the clearest markers of those effects. Two-time Horse of the Year Curlin (Lane’s End), one of the most accomplished runners of recent years, debuted for “only” $75,000, and no Kentucky stallion in the next five years debuted for more than $35,000.
Arrogate, at $75,000, and Gun Runner, at $70,000, enter a market that again has warmed to new stallions. Here is a year-by-year look at Kentucky’s top incoming stud fees of the past decade.

ing its broodmare band – for example, with the private purchase of Paulassilverlining, a multiple Grade 1 winner this year, in March.
Beyond that, Arrogate will be limited to 120 outside mares, in order to foster supply-and-demand dynamics that will benefit breed-to-sell operations, who can feel secure that they won’t bring a weanling or a yearling to a sale that is inundated with Arrogate’s stock.
“When you’re a breeder and go to a sale with an Arrogate foal, they’re gonna get rewarded,” Aaron said. It’s one reason “why we’ve gotten such a nice book of mares so far. It helps with management.”
Arrogate landed a major coup when perhaps the most accomplished broodmare prospect in North America this season, two-time Eclipse Award champion Song-bird, was booked to him. Mandy Pope, who has assembled a high-end broodmare band in recent years, purchased the Medaglia d’Oro filly for a near-record $9.5 million at the Fasig-Tipton Kentucky fall selected
mixed sale. Other prominent breeders who have
expressed support for Arrogate include Samantha Siegel, who has booked multiple Grade 1-winning homebred By the Moon; and Glen Hill Farm, which has commit-ted its stakes-winning Storm Cat mare Sly Storm.
Arrogate will be one of two active stal-lions at Juddmonte’s Kentucky farm in 2018, joining another gray, the stalwart Mizzen Mast, in the barn. The latter has been by his lonesome since Juddmonte sold First Defence in 2016. The international operation, which has a five-horse roster at its Banstead Manor Stud in England, has retired two accomplished runners to Kentucky in recent years, but they have stood at other farms in order to get other American breeders involved for the best chance of success. European champion Noble Mission, a full brother to Frankel, stands at Lane’s End, with Juddmonte retaining an interest. Eclipse winner Flint-shire stands at Hill ‘n’ Dale for the partner-ship of that farm, Juddmonte, China Horse
Club, and SF Bloodstock.“If you look at the stallion rosters at a lot
of the big stallion farms in the U.S., you’ll see that most of those operations didn’t actually race the majority of the horses themselves,” O’Rourke said earlier this year. “You have to go out and buy them, and we’re not will-ing to do that. We race our own horses; we have to be patient in allowing the horses to be good enough in their racing careers to come back. Looking at our rosters over the years, it’s about every five to seven years that we come across a really top horse we can stand at stud. That’s on average. Some-times you’ll get two or three in a row and then get a gap. We’re having a little bit of a gap at the moment, and hopefully we’re ready to get two or three in a row. … Obvi-ously, we have a very important one.”

FOR LORD NELSON, A LONG ROAD TO STUDBy Joe Nevills
A stallion open house at Spendthrift Farm is often a laid-back affair. Expensive decisions are made by breeders as they inspect the horses and plan their matings, of course, but the business is broken up by laughs, handshakes, and catered sand-wiches. The stakes are relatively low for the stallions themselves in the moment as they stand, walk, and go back to their stalls.
For Lord Nelson, just getting to that point was a triumph.
The trials of the 5-year-old Pulpit horse have been well documented over the past year, starting last fall when a cut on his leg developed into an infection that forced his withdrawal from the 2016 Breeders’ Cup Sprint and his retirement to Spend-thrift Farm.
Set at a 2017 fee of $25,000 under a stan-dard “stands-and-nurses” contract and for $30,000 as part of the Share the Upside program, Lord Nelson was poised for a well-supported debut season at stud. However, the onset of laminitis in both his front feet forced Spendthrift to cancel his book in January.
He spent a redshirt season under care-ful monitoring by Spendthrift staff, which worked closely with top Kentucky clin-ics Rood and Riddle Equine Hospital and Hagyard Equine Medical Institute. Slowly, the team rebuilt Lord Nelson’s hooves and treated his infection with antibiotics.
“I think this is a horse who is always likely to be at a little bit greater risk for issues than another horse, but so far so good,” said Ned Toffey, Spendthrift’s general manager. “After a lot of gradual, small, incremental increases in exercise, we’ve got him to the point where he’s going out into a small paddock for several hours a day, and he’s handling that really well.”
His condition improved at such a satis-factory rate that Spendthrift announced in October that Lord Nelson would make his belated debut at stud for the 2018 breeding season.
He was showcased publicly to breeders for the first time in November, walking gingerly on modified rocker shoes and kept to a limited schedule out of his stall to avoid overtaxing his still-recovering frame. There was still plenty of work to be done for Lord Nelson as a patient, but his development from an ailing horse into a viable stallion prospect earned the respect of many that saw him.
“I thought he looked fantastic at Spend-thrift when I saw him during the Novem-ber sale,” said George Adams of Mary-land-based Housatonic Bloodstock. “I
wasn’t sure exactly what to expect, and obviously his feet still aren’t perfect, but he looked to be in great condition other-wise, and he’s still a very attractive, well-balanced horse.”
Toffey said a number of special measures would be in place to ensure Lord Nelson’s safety during his first season.
The first will be reining in Lord Nelson’s book. The stallion will once again be advertised at $25,000, but only under a stands-and-nurses contract. Toffey said it was difficult to ask breeders to commit to a long-term plan like Share the Upside when Lord Nelson’s capability to handle a full workload was still unknown.
Share the Upside is an incentive program started by Spendthrift Farm in which breeders can earn a lifetime right to an incoming stallion by breeding to him for an agreed-upon number of seasons and producing a live foal each time. Breeders would have activated their lifetime breed-ing right for Lord Nelson after two seasons.
However, breeders who bought into Share the Upside seasons on Lord Nelson last year were put at the front of the line for the stallion’s limited book in 2018.
Toffey said there had been a few defec-tors, but the vast majority of breeders who were on board last year have remained on board after seeing him this fall.
“We’re pretty optimistic about the fact that he should be able to breed mares this year,” Toffey said. “Right now, the plan is to sell 80 seasons, and then depending on how he handles that kind of book, we may supplement it with more seasons that we may sell or use ourselves.
“It’s tough to sell a season and tell some-one they can’t breed, so we’re trying to be conservative with the numbers, and want to make sure we do the right thing for the horse and not put too much stress on him,” he continued. “We’ll try to keep him close to one or two covers per day, and if he’s handling things well, we may add some of our own mares in there.”
One early adopter who will be back is Adams, who planned to send the winning Broken Vow mare I’m Engaged to Lord Nelson in 2017, and once again penciled in the mare to be part of his first book in 2018.

Numerous health setbacks delayed Lord Nelson’s debut breeding season until 2018.

ing his victory in the Grade 1 Triple Bend Stakes at Santa Anita in June 2016 and informed Spendthrift of his intent to buy a Share the Upside season when they became available. The farm kept him updated on the horse’s condition after his injury, and Adams sent I’m Engaged to Ashford Stud resident Declaration of War when Lord Nelson’s season was canceled.
“They told the Share the Upside folks before they’d announced it publicly that the horse wasn’t going to breed last season,” Adams said. “So I was prepared for it, and didn’t feel like it came out of left field. Obvi-ously, it was disappointing, but it’s great that they did the right thing by the horse.”
Missing out on the chance to earn a life-time breeding right to Lord Nelson was a downer for Adams when he heard the stal-lion would not be offered through Share the Upside in 2018, but he said the time and convalescence did not change his pedigree or race record.
“Even though I’m a commercial breeder and did have a moment where I wondered
if missing the year would hurt Lord Nelson’s first foals at the sales, I think he’s been in the news enough that people haven’t forgotten about him,” Adams said. “Plus, as good looking as he is, he should have beautiful foals. Actually, with Spendthrift limiting his book because of his health, that might help out those of us who are breeding to him a bit in the sales ring when the time comes.”
Mare selection will be a key element of Lord Nelson’s first book. Toffey said the farm will aim for his mares to be veterans of the breeding process, especially early in the season, to reduce risk in his covers. I’m Engaged, for example, would meet Lord Nelson for her seventh mating.
“He’s not the type that needs to be fight-ing with tough maiden mares, so we’ll insist the mares be in very good heat and stand very well,” Toffey said. “He’s in a shoe that gives him a tremendous amount of cushion, and he’s going to stay in a specialized shoe, certainly through breed-ing season.”
While Lord Nelson has shown the physical development and interest that
suggests he will be ready for the breeding shed, Toffey said the stallion has not yet covered a test mare, and likely will not until January, but that schedule would be standard procedure regardless of the horse’s history.
“In relative terms, it wasn’t that long ago that we were in quite serious condi-tion with this horse,” Toffey said. “We’re trying to put as much time between that and doing anything as stressful as breed-ing. Tentatively, it would be sometime in mid-January that we would test-breed, and that’s not an uncommon time for us to test-breed our stallions anyway. If he was a horse that just came to us after the Breeders’ Cup and he were here settling in, that’s roughly the time we would be looking at doing it anyway.
“By that time, we’ll probably have another one or two settings on him from a shoeing standpoint,” Toffey contin-ued. “Lately, with every new shoeing, he’s improved in growing more foot and getting closer to something approaching normal. We’ll try to get him to that point. I don’t think we’re being overconfident.”

FOR LORD NELSON, A LONG ROAD TO STUD
DRF.COM/BREEDING DAILY RACING FORM Saturday, December 9, 2017 PAGE 17
KENTUCKY FARMS CALLING ON FAMILIAR SIRELINES
By Nicole Russo
The Thoroughbred industry is a land-scape of dynasties and history. That is evident in this year’s Kentucky class of sires, with major farms tapping into lines that have worked for them in the past by standing young stallions aside their sires or close relations, or securing sons from rising sirelines.
Classic Empire fits the pattern for Cool-more in more ways than one. The colt is the sixth of the last eight Eclipse Award champion juveniles to enter stud at the international outfit’s Ashford Stud in Kentucky, following Lookin At Lucky (2009), Uncle Mo (2010), Hansen (2011), Shanghai Bobby (2013), and American Pharoah (2014). American Pharoah, who went on to win the Triple Crown, is by Pioneerof the Nile, also the sire of Classic Empire.
Coolmore announced days following Classic Empire’s runner-up effort in the Preakness Stakes – which turned out to be his final career start – that it had inked a deal to stand the John Oxley colorbearer upon retirement. The colt concluded his career with 5 wins in 9 starts for earnings of $2,520,220. He was unanimously named 2016’s Eclipse Award champion 2-year-old male after a campaign highlighted by
wins in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile and Grade 1 Breeders’ Futurity.
But in his 3-year-old debut, Classic Empire finished third in the Grade 2 Holy Bull Stakes as the heavy favorite and came out of the race with a foot abscess. He displayed discomfort in his back, and at least twice refused to train at Palm Meadows training center. Trainer Mark Casse sent Classic Empire to the quieter Winding Oaks Farm in Ocala, Fla., where he was trained as a young horse. After breezing several times there, the colt won the Arkansas Derby, making him the morning-line favorite for the Kentucky Derby. He finished a creditable fourth with a troubled trip in the full field.
Classic Empire dueled Derby winner Always Dreaming into submission in the Preakness and was clear by three lengths in the stretch, but was caught by Cloud Computing at the wire for a head loss. Off that effort, Classic Empire was expected to be favored in the Belmont Stakes, but was withdrawn from consideration the week of the race with a hoof abscess. After refusing to breeze at Saratoga in August – and again exhibiting back discomfort – he was sent back to Winding Oaks, with an eye on making the Pennsylvania Derby in late September. He never breezed there.
“Unfortunately, we just ran out of time
to get him to the Breeders’ Cup Clas-sic,” Casse said. “I could never get him completely over his foot abscess, and it wasn’t possible to train him the way I needed in order to bring him back at the highest level, which is where he deserved to be. He’s an extremely talented horse that can do anything, and he overcame a lot of adversity to achieve what he did. I still believe he was the most talented horse of his generation.”
Classic Empire, a half-brother to stakes winners Anytime Magic and Uptown Twirl, is from the family of Grade 1 winner and prominent sire Harlan’s Holi-day, whose sons at stud include leading juvenile sire Into Mischief and Shanghai Bobby, now a freshman at Ashford.
Classic Empire’s “brilliance on the track is reinforced with a pedigree full of black type,” Ashford director of sales Charlie O’Connor said in a press release. “We couldn’t be more excited to be stand-ing him.”
Classic Empire debuts for an adver-tised fee of $35,000 – ranking him third in incoming fees behind only Arrogate and Gun Runner. He keys a trio of newcomers at Ashford which also welcomes Grade 1 winners Cupid, by leading sire Tapit,

Classic Empire, the 2016 champion juvenile male, will kick off his stallion career at Coolmore’s Ashford Stud for a $35,000 fee.

and Practical Joke, by Into Mischief, to its Kentucky farm. The three look to give breeders a range of options. While Classic Empire was precocious, he was a multiple Grade 1 winner at route distances and a prominent classics contender. Cupid has been described by trainer Bob Baffert as “a tweener – a mile to a mile and an eighth,” and Practical Joke has done his best work around one turn.
Cupid, a multiple Grade 2 winner as a 3-year-old, won this year’s Gold Cup at Santa Anita, giving him a résumé-boost-ing Grade 1 victory for Coolmore, which purchased him for $900,000 as a yearling.
Practical Joke won last year’s Grade 1 Hopeful and Grade 1 Champagne stakes, and finished third in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile. This year, he has competed creditably in longer-distance races, high-lighted when he was beaten less than a length in the Grade 1 Haskell Invita-tional. However, his best performances have come around one turn, including a 1 3/4-length win in the Grade 1 H. Allen Jerkens at Saratoga.
“To cut back all the way to seven-eighths after a tough race in the Haskell, I’m so proud of this horse,” trainer Chad Brown said after the victory. “He’s so versatile. It was his third race in seven weeks. He’s our iron horse.”
After finishing fourth in the Breeders’ Cup Dirt Mile, Practical Joke closed his career with a third-place finish in the Grade 1 Cigar Mile in December before heading to Ashford.
Multiple graded stakes winner Tom’s Ready also concluded his career in the Cigar Mile, finishing fifth, before retir-ing to Spendthrift Farm. Spendthrift will debut a trio of newcomers in 2018, with multiple Grade 1 winner Gormley stand-ing alongside his sire, Malibu Moon, and multiple Grade 1 winner Lord Nelson making his long-awaited debut.
Although Tom’s Ready has done his campaigning on dirt, he is by the popular turf and shuttle sire More Than Ready, making him an attractive prospect for Spendthrift, which launched a stallion operation in Australia in 2015.
Lord Nelson is a son of the late Pulpit, whose branch of the A.P. Indy line is responsible for Tapit, as well as fellow clas-sic sire Lucky Pulpit. Pulpit has another son entering stud in Kentucky this year in Grade 3 winner American Freedom at Airdrie, while Tapit’s multiple Grade 2-winning son Mohaymen will debut at Shadwell Farm.
Grade 1 winner Connect begins his
career at Lane’s End, the same farm that launched the career of his sire, Curlin. Lane’s End also will stand Grade 2 winner Unified alongside his sire, Candy Ride, who has two Grade 1 winners entering stud this year in Gun Runner at Three Chimneys and Mastery at Claiborne. Mastery, unbeaten in his brief career before injury forced his retirement, is from the family of prominent sires Jump Start and Miswaki.
Curlin will have another son entering stud this year in Keen Ice, who recorded 10 graded wins or placings, highlighted by his 2015 Travers score over Triple Crown winner American Pharoah and a third-place finish to American Pharoah in the Belmont Stakes. He also was third behind Arrogate and California Chrome in the 2016 Breeders’ Cup Classic. Calu-met, which has developed an eclectic stal-lion roster with a variety of international influences, also adds Brazilian-bred Bal a Bali, by Put It Back; French-bred Behesht, by Sea The Stars; Mr. Z, by Malibu Moon; English-bred Producer, by Dutch Art; and War Correspondent, by War Front.
Bal a Bali won the 2014 Triple Crown and was Horse of the Year in Brazil. He later overcame laminitis to become a Grade 1 winner in the United States.
“Bal a Bali has as much heart as you could ask for from a stallion prospect,” Calumet’s Jak Knelman said. “To be such a dominant 2-year-old and 3-year-old, and then to overcome laminitis and return to be a multiple Grade 1 winner really shows how much grit and determination he has as a racehorse. … As he won from
five furlongs up to 12 furlongs, with his preferred distance at a mile, he has the ability to sire a speedy 2-year-old while giving his progeny every chance to win at the classic distance.”
Multiple group stakes performer War Correspondent is a full brother to Decla-ration of War and is from the immediate family of Union Rags, both successful young sires. Grade 1-placed Mr. Z is out of a full sister to champion Chief Bearheart and is from the female family of Mr. Pros-pector.
Medaglia d’Oro features prominently in the ranks of North America’s elite sires, with his stud fee rising to $250,000 follow-ing a season in which his seven Grade 1 winners included a pair of Breeders’ Cup victors. Darley has thus called up his Group 1-winning son Astern to shuttle for his first Kentucky season after launching his stud career this year at its Australian farm.
Breeders’ Cup Dirt Mile winner Battle of Midway will be one of the last signifi-cant sons of the late Smart Strike retiring to stud, as the colt heads to WinStar Farm. WinStar stands Pioneerof the Nile, whose versatile Grade 1 winner Midnight Storm enters stud across town at Taylor Made, as a Taylor Made/WinStar venture.
Other stallions retiring to major Kentucky farms this season include Grade 1 winner Klimt (by Quality Road) at Darby Dan, and multiple graded stakes winner Bird Song (Unbridled’s Song) at Gainesway. Bird Song is a close relation to Gainesway’s multiple classic sire Bird-stone, being from the same sireline and out of a half-sister to the stallion.

DORTMUND PART OF A MARYLAND RESURGENCE
By Joe Nevills
Kentucky traditionally sees the most stallions enter its ranks each breeding season, but the migration of prospects from the racetrack to regional farms can fluctuate depending on the health of each state’s program.
Breeders and buyers at auction have taken notice of the Maryland-bred program’s growth in recent years, helped by The Stronach Group’s investment in Laurel Park and a lucrative incentive program for owners and breeders of Mary-land-breds who race in the state. With the death of stalwart Not For Love, Maryland will have plenty of new contenders for the position of new cornerstone sire.
Maryland’s stallion roster will see at least eight new members during the upcom-ing breeding season, led by multiple Grade 1 winner Dortmund, who will debut at Bonita Farm in Darlington for an advertised fee of $7,500. The 5-year-old son of Big Brown won 8 of 16 starts for earnings of $1,987,505, high-lighted by wins in the Grade 1 Los Alamitos Futurity and Santa Anita Derby and a third in the 2015 Kentucky Derby.
“We’ve got a lot going on in Maryland
right now,” said J. William Boniface of Bonita Farm. “The breeder and owner bonuses are escalating, and the purse structure is escalating. We’re excited to have a stallion of his caliber start in Maryland. Maryland’s ready for him.”
Dortmund is one of three stallions slated to debut at Bonita Farm in 2018, joining Alliance and Kobe’s Back. Alli-ance, an unraced 3-year-old Harlan’s Holiday colt and half-brother to champion Tepin and Grade 2 winner Vyjack, will stand for $4,000. Kobe’s Back, a multiple Grade 2-winning son of Flatter, will be advertised at $3,000.
Elsewhere in the state, Grade 2 winner Madefromlucky, a son of Lookin At Lucky, will stand at Northview Stallion Station in Chesapeake City for $5,000. Holy Boss, a Grade 2-winning son of Street Boss, will debut at Anchor & Hope Farm in Port Deposit.
Divining Rod, a Grade 3-winning, classic-placed Tapit horse, will stand at Country Life Farm in Bel Air for $5,000. He will stand for the partnership of Roy and Gretchen Jackson, who raced him, as well as Country Life Farm and Kentucky-based Gainesway.
Blofeld, a Grade 2 winner by Qual-ity Road, will stand at Murmur Farm in Darlington for $4,000, while Editorial, a winning half-brother to champion Uncle Mo by War Front, will reside at Roland Farm in Chesapeake City for $3,500.
FloridaA pair of Grade 1-winning stallions
will stand their first season at Ocala Stud in Ocala for $5,000 – Noble Bird, a son of Birdstone, and Greenpointcrusader, a son of Bernardini.
Mylute, a classic-placed runner by Midnight Lute, will stand at GoldMark Farm in Ocala, while Gentlemen’s Bet, a Grade 1-placed stakes winner by Half Ours, debuts at Journeyman Stud for $3,000. Grade 3 winner Ocean Knight, by Curlin, will stand at Get Away Farm in Lowell for $4,000.

a Grade 1 winner who also took the 2015 Queen’s Plate. The son of Ghostzapper will spearhead a campaign by owner Frank Stronach to expand his interests in the state, where he owns Santa Anita Park and Golden Gate Fields.
