Anchor Down (Tapit–Successful Outlook, by Orientate), a two-time graded winner at a mile and runner-up in the prestigious 2016 GI Mohegan Sun Metropolitan H., has been relocated to stand the 2022 season at Iowa State University. He began his career at stud at Gainesway in Kentucky.
From two crops of racing age, Anchor Down, a $250,000 KEESEP yearling, is the sire of 22 winners and six stakes horses. Produced by GSW Successful Outlook, Anchor Down is a half-brother to GISW Sweet Lulu (Mr. Greeley) and a full-brother to GSW Iron Fist.
Anchor Down will stand the 2022 season for a fee of $3,000, live foal, stands and nurses.
“Obviously, he's a son of Tapit and we're excited to have a fresh, new, young stallion coming into the state, one that's got some runners on the ground,” Iowa State University's Equine Director Dr. Nikki Ferwerda told TDN. “Our Iowa, mid-western breeders are gonna really like his miler speed.”
