Grade 2 winner Medallist will be part of a new division of Northview Stallion Station that will launch in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, for the 2009 season.

Richard Golden and Dr. Tom Bowman have operated Northview in Chesapeake City, Maryland, since 1989.

The new complex will be situated on 180 acres and include an eight-stall stallion barn, breeding shed, management and booking office, and a 20-stall broodmare/foaling barn. Two additional 20-stall broodmare barns will be constructed in time for the 2010 season.

Medallist, by Touch Gold, stood for $5,000 at Northview in 2008 after beginning his stud career with two seasons in Kentucky.

Golden and Bowman said they would seek out two or three new stallions to join  Medallist at the Pennsylvania location.

“Since our farms in Maryland are only 45 minutes away from Northview Pennsylvania, we will be boarding maiden and barren mares in Maryland and shuttle them to Pennsylvania to be bred to our Pennsylvania stallions,” Golden said.
