Code of Honor's Travers win gives sire Noble Mission a boost
European champion Noble Mission managed to finish fifth on last year’s freshman sire earnings list, even with his most promising runner, Grade 1 Champagne Stakes runner-up Code of Honor, missing the Breeders’ Cup due to illness. The Galileo stallion figures to finish much higher on this year’s second-crop sire list after Code of Honor swept to victory in the Travers Stakes on Saturday at Saratoga, giving Noble Mission a Grade 1 winner from his debut crop.
