Speaking of Honor Code, is he still around? Has he been retired?

I think I read somewhere the Cigar Mile was the goal. Have no idea what's up with him currently as far as training goes though.
Last I knew, he was at Fair Hill, but hasn't recorded a work. He looked great near the end of his time at WinStar, but haven't seen anything on him since he shipped out.

thanks

Noble Mission (full to Frankel, half to Bullet Train) has been awarded the Group 1 Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud, following the disqualification of first past the post Spiritjim. No reason has been given for Spiritjim's disqualification, but this definitely helps his future stallion career

From the DRF:
Also working Friday for Shirreffs was Stanwyck (Empire Maker), who went five furlongs in 1:00.44 over the Belmont training track with jockey Rajiv Maragh up. Stanwyck, a half-sister to Shirreffs’ 2005 Kentucky Derby winner Giacomo and grade I winner Tiago, is being pointed to the Grade 1 Beldame here Sept. 27. Last fall, Stanwyck won the Grade 3 Turnback the Alarm over Belmont’s main track. Most recently, she finished third to Close Hatches in the Grade 1 Personal Ensign at Saratoga.

Stellar Glow (IRE) (1/2 to Alfred Nobel (IRE)) was just a fast-closing 2nd in a maiden at Leopardstown. She is by Sea the Stars and looks like one to watch next time.
