Background Information
PICTURE
    2000 foal, 16.15hh. Cost $6,400,000 as a yearling, trained in Ireland by A. P. O'Brien for Coolmore. Dam a placed runner has also produced US Graded winners including Halory Hunter (Grade 2). Won 3 races, all at 2yo over 7f. First season sire in 2007.
  • Won the first three of his six juvenile starts in a July 14th 7f maiden, a Listed race and the Group 2 Futurity. Later placed in the Group 1 National Stakes and the 8f Group 2 Royal Lodge before finishing fifth in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile on dirt.
  • Retired to the US part of the Coolmore Stud with his 2007 fee at $7,500. Had six yearling sold in europe in 2006 for an average just above 40,000 guineas (median 34,000gns). 115 yearlings sold in the US with an average at $38,000.
  • Made a very good start with his runners in 2007 which included Group winners Strike The Deal and Raymi Coya from a small number of British raced juveniles. Made a similar positive impact in the US and his fee has risen in consequence. In early 2008, for example, it was reported that he was now too expensive to stand as a shuttle stallion in New Zealand. The fees that would need to be charged to cover the fee and costs to lease him could not be recovered in that market now.
