The 417-acre farm, formerly owned by Denis Brosnan, was originally part of Stone Farm, part of which was referred to as “the magic field” by Arthur Hancock; being the land where two of his champions were raised.

Joe Riddell of the Riddell Smith Group at Rector Hayden Realtors handled the sale.

“I have been interested in a farm in Kentucky for many years, and when this one became available, I finally took the plunge, and I am excited to be in the same neighborhood as Claiborne, Machmer Hall, Hidden Brook, and other farms who produce such great runners,” Slack said. “I am also very happy that Martin Keogh, one of Kentucky's most respected horsemen, will be my general manager. The farm will be known as Stoneriggs Farm, which is the name of the farm that my parents went to in 1941 and is still in the family today.”
