HUNTSVILLE

It’s no wonder Huntsville excelled on the racetrack – his pedigree is nothing short of royalty. His sire, the late Somebeachsomewhere needs no introduction. In Australia, Beach has sired 405 winners from 450 starters who have earned over $34 million including the standout Group 1 Champions Our Waikiki Beach p,1:50.4 ($1,063,256), Poster Boy p,1:49.1 ($803,310) and Maajida p,1:50.3 ($663,830).

Huntsville dam Wild West Show p,4,1:53.3 ($217,714) is by Western Hanover out of the Artsplace mare Sweet On Art combining two of the most influential sire lines in modern history. Wild West Show has been a prolific broodmare, already producing Huntsville, Stevensville (p,3,1:50.1f, $493,359), Cowboy Terrier (p,1:50.1f, $448,480), and the very fast two-year-old of 2017 Wild Bill p,2,1:52.3, from just five foals of racing age. In 2017, she received the prestigious honour of USA Broodmare of the Year.

In 25 lifetime starts he had 15 wins and 8 seconds, finishing off the board only one time in his career. Huntsville was voted U.S. two-year old pacer of the year in 2016 and paced to a world record mile of 1:49 at the Red Mile, winning the International Stallion Stake. His two-year-old campaign also included a track record-setting performance at the Meadowlands, winning the Breeders Crown in 1:49.1, as well as wins in the Bluegrass and the Pennsylvania Sire Stakes Championship.

Huntsville retired as the fastest three-year-old of 2017, with a mark of 1:47.4 that he earned winning the Meadowlands Pace. He bankrolled $1,014,428 this year at three, boasting victories in the Cane Pace and Jenna’s Beach Boy, while finishing second in the North America Cup. He retired as the second richest son of the great Somebeachsomewhere, behind only Captaintreacherous.
