Musket Man retired to stand at Vinery in Florida

Musket Man, a millionaire graded winner by Yonaguska, has retired to stud at Vinery Florida. He will stand for $2,500.

The 5-year-old Musket Man won the 2009 Illinois Derby and Tampa Bay Derby. He also place four times in Grade 1 races, including runner-up finishes in last year's Metropolitan and Carter Handicaps and third-place finishes in the 2009 Preakness Stakes and Whitney Handicap. Derek Ryan trained Musket Man for Eric Fein and Vic Carlson.

Musket Man, an earner of more than $1.2 million, is out of the stakes-placed Fortunate Prospect mare Fortuesque.
