On the Menu serves up first winner for Canadian Frontier

Last updated: 8/24/08 5:26 PM

Grade 3 victor CANADIAN FRONTIER (Gone West) was represented by his first

winner at stud when On the Menu prevailed in Sunday's 1ST race at Delaware Park.

Dispatched as the even-money favorite in her career debut, the Larry Jones

juvenile prompted the pace, opened up by daylight in midstretch and had enough

left to hold on by a half-length. A homebred campaigned by Brereton Jones, On

the Menu finished six furlongs beneath Gabriel Saez in 1:11 1/5 on the fast track.

Canadian Frontier was purchased by John Ferguson for $325,000 at the 2000

Keeneland September Yearling Sale, and he raced in the colors of Godolphin

before ultimately

coming to the Stanley Hough shedrow for Mrs. Einar Paul Robsham. The colt began his

five-year-old campaign with consecutive allowance wins, and following a fourth

in a listed grass sprint, he romped in the Bold Ruler H. (G3) to earn his first

stakes score. He later captured the Longfellow S. and Teddy Drone S.,

capping his career with a 13-6-1-1 mark with $253,239 in bankroll.

The nine-year-old stallion is out of multiple Grade 2 queen Borodislew

(Seattle Slew) and is a half-brother to 2005 Kent S. (G3) winner

Seeking Slew (Seeking the Gold).

Canadian Frontier stands at Brereton Jones' Airdrie Stud near Midway, Kentucky, for a fee of

$7,500, live foal.
