Retired Race Horse Big Brown Settling At Three Chimneys Farm
Kentucky Derby and Preakness winner Big Brown has settled in at his new home at Three Chimneys Farm in Midway, Kentucky over the weekend after being shipped from New York.
The 3-year-old colt Big Brown’s horse racing career ended last month when he injured his right front foot while working out at Aqueduct. Big Brown retired with 7 wins in 8 career starts, including victories in the first two legs of the Triple Crown before finishing last in the Belmont Stakes.
Race horse Big Brown’s initial stallion fee for 2009 has been set at $65,000. That number could change in the future depending on how his offspring do on the track.
Farm spokeswoman Jen Roytz said Big Brown was in good spirits and seemed to be enjoying himself. Big Brown is being stabled in the farm’s main barn, which is also the home of 2004 Kentucky Derby winner Smarty Jones.
