Boisterous moving from California to Diamond B Farm in Pennsylvania

Grade 1 winner Boisterous, who has been standing in California, is moving back East, where he spent the majority of his racing career. Boisterous is moving to Diamond B Farm in Mohrsville, Pa., for 2020.

He represents another prominent acquisition for Diamond B, which acquired Flashback from Hill 'n' Dale Farm in 2019. Flashback went on to be represented on the track by Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies winner and Eclipse Award finalist British Idiom.

There is a void at the top of Pennsylvania's stallion ranks, as the state's perennial leading sire Jump Start died last year. Pennsylvania has a solid class of freshman sires with their first 2-year-olds in 2020 in Peace and Justice (by War Front), Social Inclusion (Pioneerof the Nile), Uncle Lino (Uncle Mo), and Uncle Vinny (Uncle Mo), all by classic sires. The first foals by multiple Grade 1 winner Hoppertunity, who was a strong get for the state, will arrive this spring.

Millionaire Boisterous won 12 of 35 career starts, with his eight stakes victories highlighted by a score in the Grade 1 Man o' War Stakes in 2013. The Distorted Humor horse placed in three other Grade 1 events, including a third to champions Cape Blanco and Gio Ponti in the 2011 Man o' War, and a third behind two-time Horse of the Year Wise Dan in the 2014 Turf Classic at Churchill Downs.

Boisterous, who began his stud career at Tommy Town Thoroughbreds in California in 2015, was California's leading freshman sire of 2018, with his top runner being Kookie Gal, winner of the Soviet Problem Stakes.
