Joe and Anne McMahon of McMahon of Saratoga Thoroughbreds, LLC announced that Adena Springs will stand a number of stallions at their Saratoga Springs farm beginning in 2011. “It is a tremendous honor to welcome Adena Springs, a five-time Eclipse Award-winning breeder, and their stallions Touch Gold, Alphabet Soup, Tiago, Harlem Rocker and Silent Name to our Saratoga Springs farm.”
Dermot Carty, Director of Sales for Adena Springs said, “Naturally, the slots initiative in the state of New York is very compelling. The prospect of improved purses as well as stallion and breeder’s awards was a strong motivation for Adena Springs Farm to support the New York State program with our stallions. We will place young stallions Harlem Rocker, Tiago and Silent Name and proven horses Alphabet Soup and Touch Gold in New York with the McMahons. They will be reasonably priced to attract the strong support of New York breeders and to attract mares that will be bred back in-state in order to fulfill New York bred requirements. We will also support our New York stallions with Adena Springs’ mares.”
McMahon of Saratoga Thoroughbreds, LLC spokesman Joe McMahon said, “In all of my 45 years in the New York industry there has never been a group of Grade 1 horses assembled the likes of these. This is a grand opportunity for breeders to qualify their foals for what will arguably be the best purses and awards available anywhere in the United States. We are very excited to have North America’s eight-time leading breeder entrust us with their accomplished stallions. Stud Fees will be announced very shortly, and we invite you to visit us to inspect the stallions here in Saratoga Springs.” A fall Open House and Stallion Show is scheduled for Saturday and Sunday October 30 and 31, 2010.
