Ingot officially entered the stud in 2009 (Stallion-Page.pdf). Please call or email for more information on Ingot including highlights from a very thorough pedigree analysis by Bill Lathrop author and creator of MODERN CONDUIT MARES. Ingot's Sire Ingot has as his sire SEEKING THE GOLD who boasts: 18 Grade 1 Winners such as: 2006 Belmont Winner JAZIL 2006 Wood Memorial S. Winner BOB AND JOHN 2005 Breeders' Cup Distaff winner PLEASANT HOME 4 Champions 3 Breeder's Cup Race winners, a Dubai World Cup winner and a Florida Derby winner 13% SWs, 22% SPs 88 Stakes Winners, 50 Graded SWs, 145 Stakes Horses, $85 million SEEKING THE GOLD: The Sire of Sires Reputed as a "sire of sires", SEEKING THE GOLD'S sons at stud are making their own mark. Some examples include: Cape Town: Sire of Eclipse Champion "BIRD TOWN" Jackpot: Leading CA freshman sire in 2008 Seeking Daylight: Marylands #1 second crop sire Mutakddim: A Top 20 Active Sire by 2008 North American Earnings Petionville: A leading sire by 2008 North American & Synthetic Surface Earnings Seeking Daylight: Maryland's #1 Second Crop Sire Gold Market: 2nd leading Ohio sire in 2008 Foaled in 1985, SEEKING THE GOLD is now retired from the stud. Ingot's Dam & Tail Female Family In addition to his excellent sire, Ingot's dam CATINCA is herself of the highest calibre in terms of race record, damsire (STORM CAT) and female family. She is a G1 SW with a number of very impressive accomplishments such as winning the Ruffian and the Bed O'Roses Breeders' Cup. Out of Ingot's first 4 dams, all were successful runners and 3 were SWs (including G1 & G2 wins). This consistent high quality generation after generation is something not many stallions can boast and lends itself favourably to Ingot's potential as a successful sire. Race Career Overview As a $300,000US yearling, Ingot went on to train under leading and Champion Trainer Todd Pletcher. Ingot demonstrated his speed ability with a debut win at Belmont by 3 1/2 lengths. He went on to win at the allowance level at Churchill Downs and placed at both Saratoga and Keeneland. Ingot was 2nd to eventual Breeders Cup Sprint (G1) winner SILVER TRAIN going 6 furlongs at Belmont. He went off the favorite in 8 of his 9 lifetime starts, had a recorded bullet work at Churchill Downs and was in the money 67% of times. Ingot has 2 wins, 4 seconds and earnings of $83,886US. |
