Fox Hill Farms purchases Solar Flare

Posted: Monday, March 24, 2008 5:18 PM

Rick Porter’s Fox Hill Farms purchased promising Argentine colt Solar Flare from owner Stud Matty. 

The deal was brokered by bloodstock agent John Fulton.

A four-year-old Salt Lake colt out of Stellaire, by Southern Halo, Solar Flare will be trained by Larry Jones.

Solar Flare has three wins and three runner-up finishes from seven starts in Argentina. He captured the 2,000-meter (9.94-furlong) Premio Lord Best by nine lengths at Palermo on January 13 in his most recent start.

Fox Hill Farms raced Hard Spun, runner-up last year in both the Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands (G1) and Breeders’ Cup Classic Powered by Dodge (G1).
