Check out this picture of Air Force Blue (War Front) as a yearling back in 2014!
Bred by @stone _farm, Air Force Blue is from the family of Champions Flanders & Surfside. A very good looking yearling himself, he sold for $490,000 at the @keeneland September Sale, before going on to win three Gr.1’s as a juvenile, and be crowned Champion 2YO! “Champion 2YO in Europe 2015 and the highest rated 2YO yet trained by Aidan O’Brien - which is saying something. We give this horse a big chance to succeed.” Bill Oppenheim, SSR Ratings.
Look out for his stunning first crop yearlings at the upcoming @fasigtipton Saratoga Select Sale! #CoolmoreSires #HomeOfChampions

#FlashbackFriday to Ashford Stud in 1915, when it operated as a cattle farm known as Hereford Farm. The farm was developed for horses in the late 1970’s & having been home to many great stallions including Champion sires Thunder Gulch & Giant’s Causeway, Ashford Stud now houses both living Triple Crown winners, American Pharoah & Justify amongst others.
