Glenn and Becky Brok have announced that Rowayton, a Grade 1-placed son of leading sire Into Mischief has been retired and will enter stud in 2021 at their Diamond B Farm in Mohrsville, Pa.
Bred in Kentucky by H. Allen Pointexter, Rowayton was produced from the Indian Charlie mare, Rosemonde, a half sister to multiple graded stakes winner and Canadian champion Miss Mischief. He was a $320,000 Fasig-Tipton Saratoga yearling purchase by Larry Best's OXO Equine in 2017.
Rowayton won his first start in a maiden special weight race at Del Mar and in his second start was runner-up to champion Game Winner in the Grade 1 Del Mar Futurity after leading until deep stretch. He ran third behind Game Winner again in the Grade 1 American Pharoah Stakes in his third start.
Raced mostly in New York in his 3-year-old season, where he began with a sharp allowance victory at Belmont Park clocked in 1:14.94, Rowayton ran third behind Code of Honor in the G3 Dwyer and fourth to Mind Control in the G1 H. Allen Jerkens.
“Rowayton displayed his brilliant speed winning at Belmont Park where he was only 2/5 over the track record blazing 6 1/2 furlongs in 1:14 4/5 when he was trained by Don Chatlos,” said Glenn Brok. “His sire is enjoying incredible success and being from the family of champion Proud Spell, we feel like he will be a very important addition to the stallion ranks in the Mid-Atlantic region.”
Rowayton will enter stud for an introductory fee of $5,000. The Broks will announce a breeding incentive plan for breeders to earn a lifetime breeding right in the near future.
