Unbeaten Grade 1 winner Cavalieri has been retired, and Hill ‘n’ Dale Farm has purchased a majority interest in her as a broodmare.

Cavalieri, a 5-year-old Nyquist mare, was trained by Bob Baffert for Peter Fluor and K.C. Weiner’s Speedway Stables. She most recently raced winning the Grade 2 Zenyatta Stakes last Sept. 28, but subsequently missed the Breeders’ Cup Distaff with what was termed a “very minor” injury, the nature of which was not disclosed. Baffert, at that time, indicated she would return to racing.
