About His Sire

"He's the type of stallion we're looking for," John Sikura said about Doneraile Court, who ranks third on the freshmen sire list with $650,000 in progeny earnings "He got off the mark quickly, and has 2-year-old winners all over the place."

The best of his 16 winners is Ruler's Court, a 14-length winner of the Oct. 5 Norfolk Stakes (gr. II). Doneraile Court also is the sire of stakes winner Hoorah for Bailey.

A $1-million Keeneland July yearling, Doneraile Court was a New York graded stakes winner at two and three and was produced from the grade I stakes-placed Stop the Music mare Sophisticated Girl. He will stand for a syndicate.
