Grade 2 Winner Synchrony To Enter Stud In Brazil

Synchrony, a six-time graded stakes winner, will begin his stallion career at Haras Cima in Brazil, the South American publication Turf Diario reports.

The 7-year-old Tapit horse was retired in September after sustaining a minor injury. Racing as a homebred for Pin Oak Stud, under the shedrow of trainer Michael Stidham, Synchrony won nine of 29 career starts and earned $956,652.

He won two editions of the Grade 3 Fair Grounds Handicap, and he notched additional victories in the G2 Muniz Memorial Handicap and King Edward Stakes, as well as the G3 Red Bank Stakes and Oceanport Stakes. Synchrony also placed in eight other graded stakes races, including the G1 Turf Classic Stakes at Churchill Downs.

Synchrony is out of Pin Oak homebred Brownie Points. A daughter of Forest Wildcat, Brownie Points was a graded stakes winner of eight black type stakes, earning over $950,000. Her best performances included a victory in the G3 Ouija Board Distaff Handicap and a runner-up finish in the G1 Apple Blossom Handicap to Horse of the Year Zenyatta.

In addition to Synchrony, Brownie Points is the dam of graded stakes winner Chocolate Kisses as well as stakes winner Point System.

Synchrony is the second son of Tapit to be exported to Brazil in 2020 to launch his stallion career, following in the footsteps of classic-placed Hofburg.

MGSW Synchrony Retired; Stud Plans Pending

Six-time graded stakes winner and Pin Oak Stud homebred Synchrony (Tapit–Brownie Points, by Forest Wildcat) has been retired from racing. The Michael Stidham trainee sustained a minor injury in his last out, an off-the-board finish in Monmouth Park’s Oceanport S. Aug. 9, and it was determined the required time to fully recover would cause him to miss the major fall racing.

Over six years of campaigning, Synchrony recorded his finest years in 2018 and 2019, when his wins included the GII Muniz Memorial H. at Fair Grounds and the GII King Edward S. at Woodbine. He also placed in Churchill’s GI Old Forester Turf Classic S. in 2018. His final tally of 29-9-5-6 and earnings of $956,652 included 16 black-type wins or placings.

Pin Oak bred and campaigned Synchrony, as well as his dam, GSW & GISP Brownie Points. His GSW half-sister, Chocolate Kisses (Candy Ride {Arg}), was also bred by Pin Oak and sold for $410,000 at Fasig-Tipton’s Saratoga yearling sale in 2017.

Synchrony is scheduled to arrive at the Central Kentucky nursery this week. Stud plans are pending.

Graded Stakes Winner Synchrony Retired; Stud Plans Pending

Pin Oak Stable's multiple graded stakes winner Synchrony, has been retired from racing.

According to Pin Oak general manager Clifford Barry, Synchrony exited his last race with a minor injury. Barry stated that the unfortunate timing would require time away from the races, missing all significant fixtures, so the decision was made to retire the homebred son of three-time leading sire Tapit.

Carrying the colors of Pin Oak owner Josephine Abercrombie, Synchrony has been an ultra-consistent campaigner. Over a six-year career, he won nine races and placed 11 times in 29 starts, and amassed earnings of $956,652.

His six graded stakes victories include a game rally in Woodbine's one-mile Grade 2 King Edward Stakes, back-to-back wins in the 1 1/8-mile G3 Fair Grounds Handicap, and a 2 1/4-length win in the 1 1/16-mile G3 Oceanport Stakes at Monmouth Park. In addition, he won or placed in 14 graded stakes at seven different race tracks, including Del Mar, Arlington Park, Churchill Downs, and Oaklawn.

As a 2-year-old, Synchrony signaled his talent early, with dominant wins at Churchill and Keeneland, posting impressive speed figures for a juvenile.

By Tapit, Synchrony is out of Pin Oak homebred Brownie Points. A daughter of Forest Wildcat, Brownie Points was a graded stakes winner of eight black type stakes, earning over $950,000. Her best performances included a victory in the G3 Ouija Board Distaff Handicap and a runner-up finish in the G1 Apple Blossom Handicap to Horse of the Year Zenyatta.

In addition to Synchrony, she is the dam of graded stakes winner Chocolate Kisses as well as stakes winner Point System.

Synchrony will be arriving at the farm later this week and stud plans have not been finalized.
