Grade 1 winner Dublin has been sold to Mohns Hill Farm in Reinholds, Pa., and will stand the 2018 breeding season for a private fee. The 11-year-old Afleet Alex horse previously resided at Keane Stud in Amenia, N.Y., for $2,500. In 2016, Keane Stud purchased a controlling interest in Dublin from Spendthrift Farm, which bought the horse to stand at stud following his retirement from the racetrack. Dublin is the sire of four crops of racing age, with 57 winners and progeny earnings of more than $3.7 million. His top runners include stakes winners Celtic Chaos, Dr Blarney, Saint Alfred, Dublin Girl, and Dublin Day. He finished last year as New York’s eighth-leading sire by earnings, with $1,864,066 earned by 81 runners, 41 of which were winners. Dublin’s runners earned Beyer Speed Figures of 90 or higher on 12 occasions in 2017, led by the colt Celtic Chaos, who earned a 95 for winning the 6 1/2-furlong John Morrissey Stakes at Saratoga, and again when second in a six-furlong Aqueduct optional-claiming race. Dublin won 2 of 11 starts for earnings of $438,949, highlighted by a victory in the Grade 1 Hopeful Stakes as a juvenile. He also finished in the money in the Grade 1 Arkansas Derby, Grade 2 Rebel Stakes, and Grade 3 Southwest Stakes, and he raced in the first two legs of the 2010 Triple Crown. Bred in Kentucky by Peter Blum and Gerry Dilger, Dublin is out of the Grade 1-winning Storm Bird mare Classy Mirage, whose 10 winners from 12 runners also include Grade 2-placed Mike’s Classic and stakes-placed Ireland. His extended family features Grade 1 winner Missy’s Mirage, Argentine Group 3 winner Manipuler, and Grade 2-placed stakes winner Sonneteer.
