TrueNicks is delighted to welcome WinStar Farm, who are our most recent new subscriber. This allows breeders to run complimentary ratings with the six stallions who make up the powerful WinStar roster. The team is headed by Distorted Humor, now firmly established as one of the world’s leading sires with 64 stakes winners, 26 of them graded, in his first six crops. Those stakes winners including Champion and dual-classic winner Funny Cide; the brilliant Commentator; Travers Stakes (gr. 1) victor Flower Alley; and other grade one winners Hystericalady, Any Given Saturday, Awesome Humor, Bit of Whimsy and Rinky Dink. Distorted Humor is seconded at WinStar by his graded stakes winning and grade one placed son, Sharp Humor.

The other proven sire in the WinStar ranks is back-to-back Breeders’ Cup Classic (gr. I) hero Tiznow. The Leading Freshman Sire of 2005, Tiznow is sire of Champion Two-Year-Old Filly Folklore, Belmont Stakes (gr. I) winner, Da’Tara, grade one winners Tough Tiz’s Sis and Colonel John, and graded winners Bear Now, Slew’s Tizzy, Tiz Wonderful, Well Armed and Tizdejavu. The only other stallion with runners at WinStar is Champion Sprinter Speightstown, who is off to a very promising start with his two-year-olds this year.

The WinStar line-up is completed by Bluegrass Cat and Spring at Last. Bluegrass Cat, who recently completed his second season at stud, is a son of Storm Cat out of the multiple graded stakes winning A.P. Indy mare, She’s a Winner. An unbeaten dual graded winner at two, he captured the Haskell Invitational (gr. I) at three, and ran second in the Kentucky Derby (gr. I), Belmont Stakes (gr. 1) and Travers Stakes (gr. I). Spring at Last, who retires to stud for 2009, is by Silver Deputy out of the Dynaformer mare, Winter’s Gone. A millionaire, whose victories include the Donn Handicap (gr. I) and Godolphin Mile (gr. II), Will He Shine is half-sister to grade one winner Sharp Lisa, and graded winner Sharp Susan.
