Grade 2 winner Teuflesberg will stand his initial season in 2008 at Hurricane Hall in Lexington for $10,000.
“Teuflesberg was a very good two-year-old, is a magnificent specimen, and is from the immediate female family of Tale of the Cat, Johannesburg, and Pulpit, while being inbred to that great sire-producing female family through his sire,” Hurricane Hall President Ben Walden Jr. said. “Johannesburg is one of the most exciting young stallions in the world today.”
Campaigned by a partnership that included trainer Jamie Sanders, Jeff Singer, Donnie Kelly, and Gary Logsdon, the three-year-old Johannesburg colt out of the placed Devil’s Bag mare St. Michele won the 2007 Woody Stephens (G2) and Southwest Stakes and ’06 Sugar Bowl Stakes.
Teuflesberg placed in five additional stakes races, including a runner-up finish to Scat Daddy in the ’06 Sanford Stakes (G2) and third-place finishes to Hard Spun in the Lecomte Stakes (G3) and to Curlin in the Rebel Stakes (G3).
Teuflesberg suffered medial and lateral sesamoid fractures in his left front leg in his final start in the Phoenix Stakes (G3) on October 6 at Keeneland Race Course. The injury required surgery, and he was retired with five wins, three seconds, and two thirds from 21 career starts with $621,981 in earnings in two seasons.
