Sky Kingdom Sold To Stand In Ohio

Sky Kingdom, a multiple Grade 3 winner and veteran stallion, has been sold and will stand the upcoming breeding season at Maro Veterinary Services in Youngstown, Ohio, BloodHorse reports.

The 12-year-old son of Empire Maker previously stood at Darby Dan Farm in Lexington, Ky. He was purchased by Ohio-based Gigi Chiandussi in a deal brokered by bloodstock agent Jamie LaMonica, and he will stand for an advertised fee of $2,000.

Sky Kingdom has sired three crops of racing age, with 24 winners and combined progeny earnings of more than $1.2 million. He's perhaps best known as the sire of Wrecking Crew, a multiple Grade 1-placed runner who finished third in the 2019 Breeders' Cup Juvenile at Santa Anita Park.

Other runners of note by Sky Kingdom include multiple stakes winner Australasia and stakes-placed runners Dunniverse and Mayan Sky.

Sky Kingdom won six of 21 starts during his on-track career for earnings of $532,122. He won two editions of the Grade 3 Tokyo City Cup Stakes, and his graded stakes placings included the G1 Hollywood Gold Cup and two editions of the G3 Cougar II Handicap.

Cambre Retired To Arohra Farms In Ohio

Arohra Farms in North Lawrence, Ohio has announced that Cambre (Arch – Mourette, by Smart Strike) will enter stud in 2021. Cambre raced for owner Imagine Stables and trainer Kelsey Danner.

Cambre broke his maiden in his third career start in a maiden special weight at Tampa Bay Downs in a two-turn route race on the grass. He showed enough promise to later become a stakes-performer, finishing behind the likes of Standard Deviation (multiple graded stakes placed by Curlin) and Grade 3 winner Solidify (by Tapizar).

Cambre is out of Mourette (by Smart Strike), the multiple stakes placed producer of Sir Anthony (by Mineshaft), a multiple graded stakes winner of over $400,000 in career earnings, including wins in the G3 Prairie Meadows Cornhusker Handicap and the G3 Harlan's Holiday Stakes as an Illinois-bred. Sir Anthony still races in 2020 for his breeder/owner, Richard Otto.

Cambre's 2nd dam is Amourette, herself a multiple-stakes winner and black-type producer of two stakes-performers (in addition to Mourette).

Cambre will stand for special considerations in Ohio, and prospective breeders are asked to contact Arohra Farms for details.
