The stallion on offer is Spaniard, a stakes-placed son of Candy Ride who has stood the bulk of his breeding career in Ontario. He has sired two crops of racing age, with four winners and the stakes-placed runner Lyla Lorraine.

Spaniard won three of 11 races during his ontrack career for earnings of $144,197 and finished third in the 2010 Pirate’s Bounty Stakes at Del Mar. He is out of the Grade 3-placed stakes-winning Flying Chevron mare Shameful, making him a half-brother to two-time champion Indian Blessing.
