Limehouse retired to stud at Vinery

Brooklyn H. (G2) winner LIMEHOUSE (Grand Slam), who finished a close sixth in Saturday's Breeders' Cup Mile (G1), has been retired from racing and will enter stud at Vinery near Lexington, Kentucky, where he will stand for a fee of $17,500 live foal as the property of a syndicate.

Owned by Dogwood Stable, Limehouse broke his maiden at Keeneland in his first start, then competed exclusively in stakes, 17 of them graded. Besides this year's Brooklyn, he won the Hutcheson S. (G2), Tampa Bay Derby (G3), Bashford Manor S. (G3), Three Chimneys Juvenile S. and Alysheba S. He placed in five other graded events, including last year's Blue Grass S. (G1). Overall, he won seven of 21 starts and earned $1,110,433.

Limehouse, a half-brother to 2005 U.A.E. Derby (UAE-G2) winner Blues and Royals (Honour and Glory), is out of the Dixieland Band mare Dixieland Blues.

The chestnut four-year-old arrived at Vinery on Sunday.
