Mullion , a full brother to adjudicated 2021 Kentucky Derby (G1) winner Mandaloun , will stand at Sequel New York in partnership with Juddmonte in 2024. His stud fee is yet to be announced.
Royally bred by international Thoroughbred powerhouse, Juddmonte, Mullion is by four-time leading stallion Into Mischief and out of the multiple group winning Empire Maker mare Brooch.
Runner-up in his only start as a 2-year-old, Mullion's speed exceeded even the highest of expectations in his second career start. Returning from a 14-month layoff, Mullion showed absolute brilliance when breaking his maiden by 10 lengths going a mile at Churchill Downs. The performance garnered an impressive 4- Ragozin Number, a faster figure than Horse of the Year finalist Cody's Wish ran when winning the 2023 Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile (G1).
"Mullion is a beast to look at," said Mullion's former trainer Brad Cox. "He showed freakish brilliance, so much so that we were pointing him to the grade 1 Malibu after his 10-length romp at Churchill. He was a rare talent."
"I believe that this horse has the kind of credentials that can make him a successful stallion, which is why Juddmonte is supporting him," said Juddmonte USA general manager Garrett O'Rourke.
Mullion will be available for inspection at Sequel New York's stallion open house Jan. 27 at 167 Maple Lane, Hudson, N.Y., 12534, 11 a.m.-2 p.m.
