Trinidad and Tobago's Up the Hill Farms recently became the first Caribbean stallion station to be represented on TrueNicks.
A pair of stallions stand at the property owned by Lindsay Gay.
Untachable (TrueNicks,SRO) was offered at the 2004 Keeneland September
sale, but $1.6 million wasn't quite enough for this son of Storm Cat to be sold
through the ring. He is out of the Mr. Prospector mare Tacha, making him a full
brother to One Cool Cat, a $3.1 million yearling, multiple group I winner, and European
champion. One Cool Cat is also now a promising young sire in Ireland, with 5
first-crop stakes winners last year.
Uram (JAM) (TrueNicks,SRO) is a multiple graded-placed son of Law of the Sea
(by the Danzig horse Polish Navy). Island breeders should be well acquainted with Uram, as the multiple winner
faced the starter 21 times in Barbados, Jamaica, and Trinidad and Tobago, placing
in six stakes events.
