The Lieutenant to Shuttle to Peru

The Lieutenant (Street Sense–Stage Magic, by Ghostzapper), the Grade II-winning half-brother to Triple Crown winner Justify (Scat Daddy), will shuttle to Boris Schwartzman's Haras Barlovento in Peru for the 2019 Southern Hemisphere breeding season. The 6-year-old is finishing up his first year at stud at Becky Thomas's Sequel Stallions New York.

“We are so excited for The Lieutenant to have a summer job at a leading stud farm in Peru,” said Becky Thomas. “The team at Haras Barlovento has just been great and they have a superb broodmare band. He will be bred to beautiful mares by leading American sires Smart Strike, Unbridled, Giant's Causeway, Candy Ride, Freud, Quiet American, Vindication, Stormy Atlantic, Mineshaft, Harlan's Holiday, Johannesburg, Kitten's Joy, Exchange Rate, Lookin At Lucky, Forest Wildcat, Dynaformer, Malibu Moon, Forestry, Pure Prize, Broken Vow, Sky Mesa, El Corredor and Grand Slam.

“We are grateful to Marette Farrell for giving The Lieutenant another opportunity to prove himself as a sire. Given the success of Street Sense and his incredible family, we are sure The Lieutenant will become a highly sought-after sire.”
