R.A. Hill Stable & Reeves Thoroughbred Racing Buy Into Channel Maker

R.A. Hill Stable & Reeves Thoroughbred Racing have purchased an interest in Wachtel Stable and Gary Barber's recent GI Joe Hirsch Turf Classic winner Channel Maker (English Channel). The chestnut stamped his ticket to the GI Breeders' Cup Turf with his victory at Belmont Sept. 29.

“Randy [Hill] and I are thrilled to partner with two pillars of the Thoroughbred racing industry and are excited to be in this year's Breeders Cup with one of the nation's top-rated Thoroughbreds,” Dean Reeves said.

Trained by Bill Mott, the 4-year-old gelding captured the GII Bowling Green S. at Saratoga July 28 and was second in the GI Sword Dancer S. upstate Aug. 25 prior to his career high at Belmont last time.
