Stallion open house season has been busy at Windstar, as the farm has added three new
00:04
stallions in Cogburn, Timberlake, and Heartland.
00:08
Bloodstock agent Fletcher Mock was among the breeders checking out the newcomers.
00:21
They're exciting stallion prospects, I think.
00:24
They, all three, have bold bodies and good bone, nice feet.
00:29
They were all accomplished as two-year-olds, which I think is important for a lot of breeders.
00:34
One of the most fun things that we get to do every year is open our doors and invite
00:38
all the breeders and all of our customers into Windstar.
00:41
It's especially exciting this year because we've got three new stallions that we have
00:46
to show, starting with Cogburn.
00:48
He's been incredibly well-received, a beautiful horse, and going over very well with the breeding
00:54
public.
00:55
Turf sprinting sensation Cogburn set a record-going five-and-a-half furlongs in under a minute
01:00
in the grade one jiper.
01:02
The son-of-not-this-time will stand for $30,000 in 2025.
01:07
You know, in talking to breeders, I think one thing that's been really important to
01:10
him is, A, his two-year-old form, and B, his dirt form.
01:14
He really excelled as a two-year-old and showed a ton of ability on the dirt.
01:19
When you have a horse that can do something as special as what he did in the jiper, come
01:24
back at Kentucky Downs and show himself and his ability there, it's just really exciting
01:30
to have a horse that is so unique, so fast.
01:34
We've had a lot of success with horses like Distorted Humor and Spite's Town and More
01:39
Than Ready, who had really that elite speed.
01:42
It's rare that you see a stallion come in and have as much composure and as much presence
01:47
as he's had.
01:48
The first day he came in, he went up there, put his head down, walked like he'd been doing
01:52
this for 10 years.
01:55
Named a TDN Rising Star after breaking his maiden by over nine lengths, Timberlake went
01:59
on to claim the Champagne at two and the Rebel at three.
02:03
He'll stand for $20,000 in 2025.
02:06
Well, I do think it's important that he is one of only two Sons of Intimiscia standing
02:12
at Stadium Kentucky that are grade one winners at two.
02:16
The fact that he did win a very important race as a two-year-old in the Champagne and
02:21
then he ran on to run in the Rebel, I think is a good indication that, again, you're not
02:26
limited in your scope of exclusively being a splinter or a two-year-old horse.
02:30
Very talented, very precocious, and just a big, strong, handsome horse that people are
02:36
really falling in love with when they come out here.
02:41
Born and raised at Windstar, Heartland was at the head of his class from day one.
02:45
He earned a 90 buyer speed figure in his Rising Star worthy debut, and while his career was
02:50
cut short soon after, the Windstar team is confident that he has the credentials to join
02:55
the farm stallion roster.
02:58
To have the level of horsemanship between David Hanley, Elliott Walden, Bob Baffert
03:04
speaking this highly of this horse, we felt that he really deserved a shot here in Kentucky.
03:10
So he'll be well supported.
03:12
Justify, obviously, is doing incredible things as a stallion.
03:16
I think it's a great access point to Justify at that $10,000 level, and he's got the pedigree
03:23
to back it up, being a half-brother to a two-year-old champion in Classic Empire.
03:29
So I think you're looking at a double dose of Stormcat in that horse, top and bottom,
03:34
which I think would give you, again, a lot of speed, big, strong shoulder, big, strong
03:39
hip.
03:40
But he's a horse that, unfortunately, had to end his career early, but I think it comes
03:44
down to just having the breeder support, people who know how to plan matings for their
03:49
mares, and letting them have the opportunity to do it and help make the stallion.
