The number of mares bred in the Mid-Atlantic increased to nearly 2,000 in 2020, with Hoppertunity and Golden Lad both topping 100.
The Pegasus World Cup takes a hit, Hoppertunity sires his first foal, and Maryland’s Renaissance Awards are upon us, in the week in social media.
Hoppertunity, an earner of more than $4 million on the racetrack, sired his first foal, a filly out of a stakes-winning mare.
The share of mares bred to Midlantic stallions is slightly higher than it was a year ago, with two Pennsylvania newcomers leading the way.
Multimillionaire Hoppertunity will stand at Northview-PA for the 2019 breeding season.
