Grade I-winning sire Jersey Town (Speightstown–Jersey Girl, by Belong to Me) will stand the 2019 breeding season at Daehling Ranch Throughbreds, near Elk Grove, California as the property of Charles Fipke, for a fee of $3,000, live foal guaranteed. The announcement comes on the same day that Jersey Town's most successful son, GI Metropolitan H. winner Bee Jersey, was retired to stand at Darby Dan Farm.
“Mr. Fipke has foals by Jersey Town from some top mares still to come and will be supporting the horse in California as well, so Jersey Town represents a great opportunity for breeders to participate in a stallion with a lot of future upside,” said Sid Fernando, president of Werk Thoroughbred Consultants, Inc., and an advisor to Fipke.
The 12-year-old chestnut, who captured the GI Cigar Mile H. in 2010, stood at Darby Dan in Kentucky before moving to Road's End Farm in British Columbia for the 2018 breeding season.
