Multiple Grade I winner Carl Spackler (Ire) (Lope de Vega {Ire}) has been retired from racing and will stand at Lane's End for the 2026 breeding season, the farm announced. Bred by Fifth Avenue Bloodstock, Carl Spackler was campaigned by e Five Racing before being acquired by Ace Stud. Named a 'TDN Rising Star, presented by Hagyard' in his second career jump at Gulfstream Park after breaking his maiden by 8 3/4 lengths, he claimed his first graded victory August of 2023 when he took home the GII National Museum of Racing Hall of Fame Stakes, and claimed his initial elite-level win in 2024 in the GI Fourstardave Handicap at Saratoga. He followed that up by adding the GI Coolmore Turf Mile Stakes at Keeneland last October and ended his '24 campaign finishing sixth in the GI Breeders' Cup Mile. He got right back to winning ways Apr. 11 by handily defeating a quality field in the GI Maker's Mark Mile Stakes at the Lexington venue. In total, the son of Lope de Vega earned five triple-digit Beyer figures during the course of a career which saw him claim six graded contests–three of them Grade I–and earn just short of $2-million dollars as an eight-time winner. “Carl Spackler is unquestionably the best male turf miler I've ever trained. Not only is he fast, sound, and perfectly made, he also has an incredibly calm temperament that trainers dream of,” said trainer Chad Brown. “I will definitely be in the marketplace buying his best-looking offspring.” Carl Spackler is out of Zindaya (More Than Ready), a graded performer herself in her career, and who also produced French Group-placed Sandtrap (Ire)–a full-sister to Lane's End's newest stallion. The dam is a half-sister to GISW Western Aristocrat (Mr. Greeley) as well as a full-sister to MSP Noble Ready, herself mother to Japanese Group-winner Noble Roger (Palace Malice). Lope de Vega is the sire of 21 Group/Grade I winners and is a top five European sire in 2025. “Lope de Vega has been a dominant force in racing since he was named European Champion First-Crop Sire and has made a global impact,” said Lane's End's Bill Farish. “Carl Spackler had such an impressive turn of foot, consistently performing at an elite level, and with his sire line he brings exciting diversity to the Lane's End roster.” The post Multiple Grade I Winner Carl Spackler Retired, to Stand at Lane’s End appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
