Harness: Deo Volente shuffles stallions; Propulsion to NJ, Trixton to Ontario
Deo Volente Farms will stand European star Propulsion in 2021 at its farm in New Jersey and mainstay Trixton will transfer to Ontario to stand at Winbak Farm while remaining under the management of Deo Volente, according to multiple press releases sent out on Friday (Nov. 6).
“We're truly excited to have yet another stallion of the highest caliber standing at our farm in New Jersey," said Michael J. Gulotta, CEO of Deo Volente Farms, on the addition of Propulsion. "Propulsion's presence here will catapult our continuing efforts to bring New Jersey back to its position of preeminence in the North American breeding market.”
On the addition of Trixton, Joe Thomson, owner of Winbak Farm said, "We are very happy and extremely excited to have the opportunity to stand a stallion of Trixton's caliber here at Winbak Farm. He will be able to take full advantage of our revitalized program here in Ontario. The timing could not be better, as Trixton had six of his offspring race in the Breeders Crown Finals just last week."
Trixton will stand for $7,500 (U.S.) while Propulsion's stud fee will be $9,500.
