For the first time ever, Coleman Branch has the opportunity to advertise a stallion and we’re very excited. Though our boy stood briefly last year, he went unnanounced. He will be represented by 8 foals in 2015. That said, we are pleased to introduce:
NCh. Mr. Prospective
Dark Bay with Blaze
16.0h
Mr. Prospector (S) x Time Out (G, createxcreate)
Lifetime Earnings: $1,696,000
Breeding Information
- Sire is a Chef-de-Race and has produced 5 MSW of 71% winners.
- Mr. Prospective is 1/2 to: GCh. North By Northwest, GCh. Rainbow Time, and 4 Ch.-ranked horses, including a 2yo.
- Mr. Prospector has only one other son at stud (Smart Strike), so Mr. Prospective would be a nice outcross for a great number of mares.
Stakes Record
- Wins: Queensland Derby (G1), Del Mar Breeders’ Cup Handicap (G2), Dwyer Stakes (G2), Kindergarden Stakes (G3), Historic Stakes (G3), and the Victoria Handicap (G3)
- Places: Australian Derby (G1)
- Shows: Caulfield Stakes (G1), Epsom Handicap (G1), Spectacular Bid Breeders’ Stakes (G1), St. George Stakes (G2), Feltex R.N. Irwin Stakes (G3), and the Swale Stakes (G3)
- Ungraded: Star De Naskra Stakes (1st), Hirsch Jacobs Stakes (3rd)
Race Information
- Raced over Dirt, Turf, and SC. The majority of his earnings came on the grass, though he did very well (earning $500k and winning 3 stakes) on the dirt.
- Had 3 good seasons of racing (age 2-4).
- His greatest earnings came at distances over 10f, though he performed most reliably at Classic lengths. He won 3 stakes over Sprint courses.
- Looks to pass on an 8 in the Intermediate category.
He will most likely be nominated for the Breeder’s Cup. His stud fee will be $5,000.
As of this moment, I’m not taking reservations, but he will be available without them.
