Engage Retired to Northview Stallion Station

Multiple graded stakes-winning sprinter Engage (Into Mischief–Nefertiti, by Speightstown) has been retired to Northview Stallion Station in Chesapeake City, Md., for the 2022 season.

The bay won graded stakes at two and four, including Keeneland's GII Stoll Keenon Ogden Phoenix S., a Breeders' Cup “Win and You're In” event for the 2019 GI Breeders' Cup Sprint while defeating a field that included eventual Eclipse Award-winning sprinter Whitmore (Pleasantly Perfect). He also captured the GIII Futurity S. as a juvenile and added two more listed stakes wins, retiring with $802,780 in earnings.

“This horse is pure speed,” said Northview general manager David Wade. “He is the first true sprinter we've retired to Northview in years.”

Engage will stand for $5,000 live foal and is now at the farm and available for inspection. He will be showcased with the rest of the Northview stallion lineup at an Open House Dec. 11 from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
