Raise a Grand | Racing Post

Some 38 of the 59 horses stolen from Al Shaab Stud in Libya in January have been recovered, Racing Post reported. Among the recovered horses is G3 Solario S. hero Raise a Grand (Ire) (Grand Lodge). He has been returned to the Tripoli stud, as has Metternich (Seeking the Gold) and Brut Force (Aus) (Giant's Causeway). Fellow stallions Backdraft (Aus) (Testa Rossa {Aus}), GSW Churchill Downs (Aus) (Danehill) and A.P. Indy (Seattle Slew)'s half-brother Eavesdropper (Kingmambo) have not been recovered at this time.

“By the grace of God and the steadfastness of the Libyan people, 38 out of the 59 horses hijacked many months ago have been located,” Dr. Amad Eshab, general manager of the stud told Racing Post. “The search is still ongoing for the remaining horses, including a number of mares who were in foal.”
