I wondered what happened to this one. After he won the Marathon they said he was being transferred to an American trainer, then poof, never heard anything else.

Grade III winner and classic-placed Medal Count, a son of Dynaformer, has been retired and will stand stud in 2016 at B. Wayne Hughes' Spendthrift Farm near Lexington as the newest participant in the farm's Share The Upside Program.

The Share The Upside fee for last year's Belmont Stakes (gr. I) third-place finisher will be $6,500 stands and nurses on a one-year commitment, and breeders will earn a lifetime breeding right in Medal Count after producing just one live foal in 2017. Medal Count will also be available on a traditional stands and nurses contract for a fee of $5,000 live foal.

Workforce(GB) sired his first winner on July 11th 2015, when his 2yo colt Glory Mist(JPN)[o/o Misty Forest(JPN) by Jungle Pocket(JPN)] made a winning debut over 1800m turf at Hakodate 5R Newcomer.

Danza has now been officially retired.

I presume that attempts to bring him back from whatever ailed him after last year's Derby failed.
Spendthrift's Share the Upside program should give the handsome colt a decent chance at stud.

Damn! Serena's Cat has nothing but stunning babies, and they can run a bit. Noble Tune, Honor Code, Lady Serena and Morse Code ( although he has yet to start)

Danza retired to Spendthrift

Disappointing; this was a nice horse and I don't think we ever saw his best effort.

Also, I agree that Noble Tune bears a remarkable resemblance to Storm Cat.

His sire Symboli Kris S(USA) stands at Shadai Stallion Station, too.
I'm wondering which stallion will be more popular. :D
