Bee Jersey stared down some of the world's best dirt milers on the racetrack, and now he'll try to pass that determination on to his foals, the first of which are weanlings of 2020.
On this edition of In The Stud, we venture out to Darby Dan Farm to speak with Ryan Norton about the 6-year-old son of Jersey Town who gained national recognition when he won the Grade 1 Metropolitan Handicap.
Bee Jersey won five of 10 starts during his on-track career for earnings of $976,293. In addition to his Met Mile score, Bee Jersey picked up a win in the G3 Steve Sexton Mile Stakes, and he traveled across the world to finish second behind the mighty Thunder Snow in the G3 U.A.E. Two Thousand Guineas.
A number of stallions can be found in Bee Jersey's extended family, including A.P. Indy, Summer Squall, Lemon Drop Kid, and Duke of Marmalade.
The In The Stud video series, put together by our friends at EquiSport Photos, features up-and-coming names in the stallion ranks, with a focus on those whose first foals are weanlings of 2020. Paulick Report bloodstock editor Joe Nevills interviews farm staff about the stallion's appealing qualities and what mares might work best with them, while giving viewers and potential breeders a chance to see the stallion on the walk and on the racetrack.
