Photo by Z/Matt Barton
Champion two-year-old colt War Pass was retired on Friday and will stand at William S. Farish’s Lane’s End Farm in Versailles, Kentucky, in 2009.
The three-year-old Cherokee Run colt out of the stakes-placed winning Mr. Prospector mare Vue had been sidelined since April with a fractured sesamoid in his left front ankle. On the advice of veterinarians, it was decided that he should be retired from racing, Farish said.
