River Boyne (Ire), a Grade 1-winning son of Dandy Man (Ire), will join the roster at Tara Stud in Ireland for 2021. His fee is yet to be confirmed.
The 5-year-old started his racing career in Ireland with Gordon Elliott before being transferred to the Californian stable of Jeff Mullins. A winner in each of his racing seasons between the ages of two and five, River Boyne was victorious in nine of his 25 races, including the GI Frank E Kilroe Mile at Santa Anita, where he also won the GII Twilight Derby and GII Mathis Brothers Mile.
Commenting on his new arrival, who joins Alhebayeb (Ire) and Estidhkaar (Ire) on the stallion roster, Tara Stud's Derek Iceton said, “River Boyne has arrived safely and we will be announcing details of his syndication and nomination fee shortly, but I'm thrilled to have secured him after closely following his career since his impressive victory at two years. He has all the qualities that you would wish to see in a stallion: ultra-sound, impressive physique and a great attitude.”
