A multiple Grade 1 winner with a record of eight wins, one second and one third from 12 career starts, he has amassed career earnings of $2,735,711 to date. A $900,000 yearling purchase from Keeneland September, the son of Curlin is out of a Classic-placed dam from the family of Eclipse Champion two-year-old Eliza. Elite Power will stand for a fee of $50,000 live foal.
Mandaloun, a multiple Grade 1 winner of over $2 million will stand the 2024 season for a fee of $20,000 live foal.
