Grade 1 Winner Mixto to Enter Stud at Hidden Lake Farm

Hidden Lake Farm located near Stillwater, N.Y. announced the addition of Good Magic's leading money earner and grade 1-winning son Mixto to the farm’s stallion roster for 2026. The deal was brokered by The Stallion Company. Mixto won the $1 million Pacific Classic (G1) in 2024, and scored a monster runner-up performance in this year's Dubai World Cup (G1), getting nipped at the wire by Hit Show. Eventual Breeders' Cup Classic (G1) winner Forever Young (JPN) was third. "Champion 2-year-old Good Magic is off to a great start as a sire of sires with grade 1-winning sons Muth, Mage and Dornoch at stud," said Hidden Lake's Chris Bernhard. "To have a grade 1 winner and Good Magic's leading-money earner of $3,330,680 standing in New York is a true testament to the strength of the New York program. We believe standing top-class runners by Candy Ride, Gun Runner, and now Good Magic for the 2026 season is perfect timing with the new Belmont Park and New York-breds running for purse parity in the near future.” Mixto will join new stallions Disarm (Gun Runner) and Confidence Game (Candy Ride (ARG)) at Hidden Lake Farm in 2026.

"Mixto challenged the pace most of the race, unleashed a powerful move in the stretch, and was nailed at the wire while beating the 2025 Breeders' Cup Classic winner (Forever Young). We look forward to supporting Mixto in New York in 2026.” Mixto’s dam Musical Mystery is a sister to grade 1 winner Rigoletta, dam of grade 1-winning millionaire Battle of Midway and multiple graded stakes placed Moretti. Mixto was bred in Kentucky by Farfellow Farms, and purchased by Calumet Farm for $140,000 at the 2022 Ocala Breeders' Spring Sale of 2-Year-Olds in Training. He was trained by Doug O'Neill, and retires with a career record of 2-3-5 from 18 starts. Mixto will stand as the property of a syndicate for $10,000, live foal stands and nurses.
