Shadwell Stabl?s Daaher (Awesome Again–Irish Cherry, by Irish Open), who defeated GI Breeder? Cup Sprint and Eclipse Award winner Midnight Lute in the GI Cigar Mile H. last Nov. 24, has been retired from racing and will enter stud for the current breeding season at Shadwel?s Nashwan Stud in Lexington, Kentucky. He will command a fee of $30,000 live foal. He was most recently a surprising third in the Mar. 1 Stymie H. at Aqueduct and subsequent scintigraphy revealed torn and injured ligaments in his right front ankle. “Daaher has natural speed and was most effective at a mile,” said Shadwell General Manager Rick Nichols. “He is an outstanding looking horse and he has a pedigree that completes the package.”
