Ben and Elaine Walden’s Pauls Mill announced Thursday that the central Kentucky farm has acquired a 50 percent interest in Mining My Own, dam of 2009 Kentucky Derby winner Mine That Bird and multiple Grade 1 winner Dullahan.
The 11-year-old Smart Strike mare was relocated to Pauls Mill in Versailles, Ky., on Thursday along with her 2012 Giant’s Causeway colt. Phil and Judy Needham and Bena Halecky, who boarded Mining My Own at Bona Terra Farm in Georgetown, Ky., retain the other half-interest in the mare.
