Laoban's legacy will live on in New York as his full-brother, Son of Thunder, is set to stand at Waldorf Farm in North Chatham, N.Y., for the 2022 breeding season.
“We are honored to have been able to purchase a full brother to such an incredible stallion whose life was cut much too short,” says Sean Feld, president of Climax Stallions. “We will honor Laoban's legacy by offering a complementary breeding to anyone who bred, bought or is racing any progeny of Laoban.”
Son of Thunder, a $475,000 yearling purchased out of the Saratoga Select Sale, raced in the colors of the prestigious Lael Stables. A son of sire of sires, Uncle Mo, and out of the stakes-placed Speightstown mare Chattertown, Son of Thunder is built with stretch and athleticism.
“He easily passes the eye test. If he duplicates what his brother did with his foals, you can breed any type of mare to him,” says Waldorf Farm manager Kenny Toye.
Also very complimentary of the dark bay colt is Waldorf Farm owner, Dr. Jerry Bilinski, who describes him as having great size and conformation.
“He's by Uncle Mo, who is becoming a legendary sire of sires and we are flattered to add Son of Thunder to our stallion barn here at Waldorf Farm,” says Bilinski.
Son of Thunder will join a stacked Climax Stallions roster for the upcoming breeding season, standing for $2,500 LFSN.
