Flag of Honour has recently joined the roster at The National Stud where he will stand as a dual-purpose stallion. Joe Callan tells us more about the new stallion.

During a recent visit, Nicolas de Chambure took some time to tell us a little bit about his new recruit. As of this year, Siyouni now has two sons at stud—Le Brivido (Fr) at Overbury Stud in Britain and City Light (Fr) at Haras d'Etreham in his native France. City Light was bred at Jedburgh Stud in Normandy by Isabelle Corbani and Alec Waugh, who of his formative...

Wayne Hughes making an appearance to welcome the latest addition to his stallion roster, who starts out this year at $45,000. The imposing bay posed for upwards of 20 minutes, his behavior more reminiscent of a seasoned stallion than a colt fresh off the racetrack. As a three-time Grade I winner by War Front and a...

It is a great time to be standing a son of Into Mischief, and WinStar Farm has added Audible, the 2019 Florida Derby winner, to its roster for 2020. Kelsey Riley caught up with WinStar Farm's David Hanley to talk about the new stallion. Audible broke his maiden in his second career start, but Hanley didn't really get excited about him until his next race, an allowance at Aqueduct going a mile. He won that day by 9 3/4 lengths. "He won his maiden at Aqueduct in the fall and...
