Grade 2-Placed Tight Ten Retired To Mountain Springs Farm In Pennsylvania

Tight Ten, a multiple graded stakes-placed son of Tapit, enters stud in 2021 at the new Mountain Springs Farm in Palmyra, Pa.

Tight Ten is by three-time leading sire Tapit out of a Distorted Humor mare, the same as leading second-crop sire Constitution.

After easily breaking his maiden at Churchill Downs in wire-to-wire fashion by more than four lengths, Tight Ten next ran second by one length in the historic Grade 2 Saratoga Special Stakes after leading in mid-stretch. In his third career start, Tight Ten led for the entire trip of the 1 1/16 mile G3 Iroquois Stakes at Churchill Downs until he was caught in the final strides to finish second.

In his final start at two, the $2-million Breeders' Cup Juvenile, Tight Ten hit the inner rail shortly after the start and emerged with a torn hind-end ligament. He returned to win a one-mile allowance race at age four, and retired with earnings of $132,369.

Standing 16.1 hands with outstanding athletic conformation Tight Ten will stand for an introductory fee of $2,500 live foal. Additional mares can be bred for $2,000 each.

A lifetime breeding right to Tight Ten will be awarded to breeders after booking four mares.

Tight Ten will stand at the new 200-acre Mountain Springs Farm. With facilities rivaling any in the state, the experienced horsemen at Mountain Springs Farm provide excellent mare and foal care at affordable rates.

Tight Ten is nominated for the Breeders' Cup and is eligible for the Pennsylvania-bred program.

Peace And Justice Relocates To Blackstone Farm In Pennsylvania For 2021

Peace And Justice, a three-time winning miler and the fastest son of top international stallion and emerging sire of sires, War Front, standing in Pennsylvania, will relocate to Blackstone Farm in Pine Grove, Pa., for the 2021 breeding season.

Peace And Justice is represented by first-crop 2-year-olds this year. His top runners include Like a Saltshaker, winner of the Fitz Dixon, Jr. Memorial Juvenile Stakes and runner-up in the Awad Stakes at Belmont, who is now pointing towards the Pennsylvania Nursery Stakes.

In the sales ring, a juvenile filly by Peace And Justice sold for $70,000 at OBS April, a multiple equaling 20 times his stud fee.

On the racetrack, Peace and Justice ran three 95+ Beyer Speed Figures, including a Santa Anita allowance contest in dominant fashion by 5 1/4 lengths. Throughout his career, Peace and Justice defeated multiple graded stakes winners, including Grade 1 winner Drill. He earned “TDN Rising Star” status and ran 3/5 seconds off Horse of the Year Wise Dan's course record at Santa Anita with a wire-to-wire mile victory in 1:32.36 (22.47, 44.55, 1:08.05, 1:20.20) and just shy of the record set by Tourist in the Breeders' Cup Mile.

Out of the winning Smart Strike mare Strike the Sky, Peace and Justice is a half-brother to Grade 2 winner Hudson Steele. He is also half-brother to Lauren Byrd, the dam of graded stakes winner Hakam and Grade 1-placed dirt runner My Man Sam.

This family also includes champion What a Treat and legendary foundation Coolmore sire Be My Guest.

Peace and Justice will stand for $3,500 LFSN at Blackstone Farm.
