Multiple graded stakes winner Irish War Cry (Curlin–Irish Sovereign, by Polish Numbers) has been purchased by Bob and Tyree Wolesensky and will relocate from Northview Stallion Station in Maryland to the Wolesensky's Leadem Farm in Leola, Arkansas for the 2025 breeding season. The 10-year-old stallion won the 2017 GII Wood Memorial Stakes and GII Lambholm South Holy Bull Stakes, as well as the 2018 GIII Pimilco Special.
He is the sire of this year's Maryland Million Sprint Stakes winner Celtic Contender, as well as Maryland Million Distaff third-place finisher Spencerian and stakes-placed Feeling Woozy.
“He checks all our boxes here and we couldn't be more excited to bring such an accomplished son of Curlin, from such a strong Danzig female family line, to Arkansas,” said Bob Wolesensky.
Jay Goodwin, who brokered the deal, said, “David Wade and Bob Wolesensky are two of the nicest people in the horse business. Love working with both of them. I'm excited to breed a couple of mares to Irish War Cry myself.”
Irish War Cry will join American Freedom and Super Stock on the Leadem Stallion roster.
