Bullof Wall Street's win in Swedish Derby further burnishes Tapizar's international credentials

Tapizar sired the winner of the 2018 Kentucky Oaks, Monomoy Girl, and has a candidate for this year’s filly classic in Project Whiskey.

But while champion Monomoy Girl was returning to graded stakes company with a victory in the Grade 2 Ruffian on Saturday at Belmont, and Project Whiskey was earning 50 points toward the Oaks with a victory in the Grade 3 Delaware Oaks on July 4, Tapizar was continuing to develop his eclectic career as a sire of international classic winners. Tapizar is the sire of Bullof Wall Street, winner of Sunday’s Swedish Derby.

Bullof Wall Street, who is out of the unraced Coronado’s Quest mare Dovie, was bred in Kentucky by Mike Abraham. He was sold to M and W Bloodstock for $17,000 as a weanling at the Keeneland November breeding stock sale, then the following year fetched $86,618 in U.S. dollars when sold to De 5 Stjerner APS at the Goffs Orby yearling sale. Overall, he has now won 3 of 7 starts while racing in Sweden, Norway, and Dubai.

Bullof Wall Street is the second international classic winner sired by Tapizar. Revamp, also a Kentucky-bred, won the 2019 Greek Derby.

Tapizar won three graded stakes, highlighted by the 2012 Breeders’ Cup Dirt Mile, before retiring to Gainesway to stand alongside his sire, Tapit. He is the sire of 11 stakes winners, with graded stakes winners Amalfi Coast, Honey Bunny, Jeltrin, and Solidify joining Monomoy Girl and Project Whiskey.
