Graded Stakes Winner Dennis’ Moment Relocates to Wyoming, Home of Racing’s Fastest-Growing Breeding Program
Cheyenne, Wyoming – September 13, 2023
Dennis’ Moment, a gradedstakes-winning son of Horse of the Year Tiznow, will stand the 2024 breeding season at Golden Creek Equine in Cheyenne, Wyoming. He instantly becomes the most exciting Thoroughbred stallion prospect in the state which has seen remarkable growth in purses and breeding incentives thanks to historical horse racing (HHR). He will stand as property of CJ Thoroughbreds and Eugene Joyce for a fee of $1,500. A limited number of lifetime breeding rights are also available.
A $400,000 yearling purchase by Albaugh Family Racing, Dennis’ Moment proved to be a 2-year-old sensation in 2019 as he broke his maiden by nearly 20 lengths at Ellis Park, earning him Thoroughbred Daily News Rising Star honors. He followed that up with a decisive victory in the Grade 3 Iroquois Stakes going two turns at Churchill Downs. That made him the odds-on favorite in the Grade 1 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile, but a stumble at the start cost him any chance of winning. He later retired with earnings of more than $300,000.
