Stonewall Farm Makes Pedigree Nicks Tool Available to Thoroughbred Breeders

Free TrueNicks sireline ratings will once again be available for the 12 stallions standing at Stonewall Farm in Versailles, Ky.

Stonewall's Medaglia d'Oro (TrueNicks,SRO) is off to a tremendous start to his stallion career. The son of El Prado (IRE) (TrueNicks,SRO) won or placed in many of the world's most important races, including the Belmont Stakes (gr. I), the Breeders' Cup Classic (gr. I), the Travers S. (gr. I), the Dubai World Cup (UAE-I), etc. He's passing on that high quality to his first crop. He's the sire of 17 winners so far and already has four stakes winners (two graded) to his credit. In fact, he's the co-leading first=crop sire of stakes winners.

Doneraile Court (TrueNicks,SRO) and Marquetry (TrueNicks,SRO) are the other Stonewall stallion with runners and they've both sired some good ones as well.

Doneraile Court is among the top 25 on the General Sire list in 2008 and has been represented by a pair of North American grade I winners this year in Cocoa Beach (CHI) and Ariege.

Marquetry has sired 33 stakes winners so far, including a pair of Breeders' Cup Sprint (gr. I) winners and champions Artax and Squirtle Squirt.

The Stonewall roster is rounded out by nine stallions who will have their first crops race over the next few seasons.

In 2009, we'll see the first runners by multiple grade I winner and champion [Leroidsanimaux], stakes-winning Value Plus (TrueNicks,SRO) (a son of Unbridled's Song (TrueNicks,SRO) ), and Unforgettable Max (TrueNicks,SRO) (a stakes-winning full brother to Afleet Alex (TrueNicks,SRO)).

In 2010, A. P. Warrior (TrueNicks,SRO) (a multiple graded stakes winning son of A.P. Indy (TrueNicks,SRO)), Da Stoops (TrueNicks,SRO) (a multiple stakes winner by Distorted Humor (TrueNicks,SRO) ), Hawthorne Gold Cup (gr. II) winner It's No Joke (TrueNicks,SRO) , and Dwyer/Super Derby (gr. II) winner [StrongContender get their shots.

Multiple grade I winner and Eclipse champion Lawyer Ron (TrueNicks,SRO) , and Spellbinder (TrueNicks,SRO) , multiple graded stakes-winning son of Tale of the Cat (TrueNicks,SRO) , will stand their second seasons in 2009.
