Mullion, Full-Brother to Mandaloun, to Stand at Sequel New York

Mullion (Into Mischief–Brooch, by Empire Maker), a full-brother to GI Kentucky Derby winner Mandaloun, will stand at Sequel New York in partnership with Juddmonte in 2024. The 4-year-old, nosed out of a debut win at Ellis Park in August of 2022, returned from 14 months on the sidelines to graduate by 10 lengths going one mile at Churchill Downs Nov. 5. The victory earned the well-bred colt the 'TDN Rising Star' designation and an impression 4-Ragozin Number.

“Mullion is a beast to look at. He showed freakish brilliance, so much so that we were pointing him to the GI Malibu after his 10-length romp at Churchill. He was a rare talent,” said trainer Brad Cox.

Garrett O'Rourke, general manager of Juddmonte USA, added, “I believe that this horse has the kind of credentials that can make him a successful stallion which is why Juddmonte is supporting him.”

Mullion, whose stud fee is still to be announced, will be available for inspection at Sequel New York's Stallion Open House Jan. 27 at 167 Maple Lane, Hudson, NY 12534 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
