Isotherm (Lonhro) will stand at Swifty Farms in Indiana for 2021.

Mylute · Fri Oct 30, 2020 12:07 pm

Pensioned Awesome Again and Milwaukee Brew are going to Old Friends.

Wonder what is going on with Adena and where they're going to send Shaman Ghost. They have apparently recruited non-stakes winner American Guru to stand in Canada.

ETA: They've moved Shaman Ghost to...Canada.

Kinda pissed off at what happened to Shaman Ghost's stud career but I think he'll at least be appreciated by Ontario breeders.

Where will macho uno go?

Knew that at least one of their retired stallions will go to Old Friends, though I feel for the Adena Stallion staff. TDN put out a video not that long ago about the decades long bond between Awesome Again and his groom, I’d kind of been hoping AA would be able to live out his days at Adena with the care he was used to. Guess they’re already calling time on Silver Max’s stallion career, since he’s being pensioned and sent to old friends as well. Yikes.

Don’t get me wrong, Old Friends does amazing work, it’s just moving farms and the changing of routines of these stallions at old ages that worries me.

I would assume we hear of an Adena racing and broodmare dispersal at some point in 2021.

Silver max is there also? I only saw video of awesome again and miluakee brew arriving

Flanders · Fri Oct 30, 2020 5:21 pm

I wonder if all the movements is because the farm has been sold?

Not yet. He is coming from Canada so it said it would be a couple weeks.

Also curious where sligo bay and red bullet will go?

Mylute · Fri Oct 30, 2020 5:45 pm

We also don't know where Rookie Sensation and North Light are.

Rookie Sensation was pensioned in Canada I just don’t know any more details other than that. It is shown on the third crop list at Bloodhorse.

Sorry what is the joke? His reins are long?

He was the 2019 Kentucky Derby winner and instead of being the winner for 12 months, he was the reigning Derby winner from May 2019 until September 2020.

That’s great! Lol

Nadal(USA) arrived in Shadai Stallion Station yesterday.

Can't wait to see his babies!

North Light and Sligo Bay are pensioned at Adena Ocala. Rookie Sensation was sold to Saudi Arabia.

Red Bullet died some years ago.

I'm confused. I asked about him earlier this year and Fly To The Stars said they saw him last year and he looked good.

Yes, saw Red Bullet at Adena last year and looked great. Same as other pensioners there. I will ask where Bullet will be placed

Northport · Mon Nov 02, 2020 9:13 pm

I have a friend involved with Adena and she said she isn't sure where Red Bullet is but believes he was sold.
