Victory Gallop, who ranked third among freshman sires of 2003, will shuttle to Chile for the Southern Hemisphere season following his stud duties this season at WinStar Farm in Versailles, Kentucky.

Victory Gallop will be imported under a lease agreement with the Criadores Fina Sangre de Carrera de Chile [Chilean Breeders Association] for whom he will stand, according to Victor Saleh, president of the breeders’ group.

A 12-year-old by Cryptoclearance out of the Vice Regent mare Victorious Lil, Victory Gallop stands at WinStar Farm for $10,000. He entered stud there in 2000.

In five crops of racing age, Victory Gallop has sired 157 winners and 18 stakes winners from 229 starters that have earned $15,396,343 through Thursday. His top progeny include Japanese stakes winner and $1,458,648-earner Eishin Dover and graded stakes winners Victory U. S. A. and Kettleoneup.

Victory Gallop finished second in both the 1998 Kentucky Derby (G1) and Preakness Stakes (G1) before winning the Belmont Stakes (G1). He won the 1999 Whitney Handicap (G1) and Stephen Foster Handicap (G2) en route to the Eclipse Award as champion older horse that season. He also finished third in the ‘99 Dubai World Cup (UAE-G1). Overall, Victory Gallop won nine of 17 career starts while earning $3,505,895.
