Multiple graded stakes winner Frank Conversation (Quality Road–Rushen Heat, by Unusual Heat) will shuttle to Haras Santa Sara in Santiago, Chile for the 2020 Southern Hemisphere breeding season. The 7-year-old stallion just completed his second year at stud at Rockridge Stud in Hudson, New York.
“We're thrilled with the quality of his first crop of foals and would love to see international success for the horse,” said Rockridge Stud's Lere Visagie. “An opportunity to shuttle just seemed like a no-brainer.”
The deal was brokered by Bowling Bloodstock and Sullivan Bloodstock.
“We've had great success in the past with Santa Sara, most recently having sent Goldencents there,” Matt Bowling of Bowling Bloodstock said. “They take very good care of the horses and we think Frank will be well-received there.”
Frank Conversation won the GII Twilight Derby and GIII El Camino Real Derby in 2016 for Reddam Racing and trainer Doug O'Neill. He was also third in that year's GI Hollywood Derby.
