Frank Stronach’s Adena Springs Farm announced Friday the agreement to
purchase an undisclosed interest in Dean and Patti Reeves’ Breeders’ Cup Classic
winner Mucho Macho Man.

The agreement in the six-year-old multiple Grade 1 winner is for racing and
breeding purposes, and is effective immediately.

Mucho Macho Man is by Adena Springs-bred and -raced champion and Breeders’
Cup winner Macho Uno, who in turn is by Horse of the Year Holy Bull out of
Broodmare of the Year Primal Force. Mucho Macho Man is poised to join ranks with
a stallion roster that will now boast five Breeders’ Cup Classic winners:
Alphabet Soup, Awesome Again, Fort Larned and Ghostzapper.

“It’s a homecoming of sorts,” Stronach stated. “Our program bred Ponche De
Leona to Macho Uno, before selling her with Mucho Macho Man in utero. Mucho
Macho Man is not only a beautiful animal, but an incredible runner, who has
already won or placed in 16 major stakes races, including the Kentucky Derby and
two Breeders’ Cup Classics. There are not many stallion prospects anywhere in
the world that can hold their top form from two through six like he has. I look
forward to his races this year, and subsequent retirement to Adena Springs.”
