Well, he is a Gr.I winner. Albeit, that was a very weak field for a Gr.I race.

Due to “ foot issues”… does that mean laminitis?

He had hoof issues per blood horse so I wonder if it was laminitis or something similar

With Valentine Candy’s win in the Advent Stakes, Justify becomes the first sire in over 20 Years to sire 9 Stakes Winning 2 Year Olds in the same year.

He was previously tied with Storm Cat, who had 8 stakes winning juveniles in 2002.

Justify has really cemented himself one of the best sires in the world this year.

Shame about Speightstown; he was a remarkable stallion. Reminds me of another old favorite who was also a versatile sire: More Than Ready.

He’s not that old, so I wonder if he just wasn’t successful or he wasn’t interested anymore. Either way, great news...thanks !
