Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted December 11 Journalists Share Posted December 11 Classic Causeway (Giant's Causeway–Private World, by Thunder Gulch), winner of the 2022 GI Caesars Belmont Derby Invitational S., has been retired to Pope McLean's Crestwood Farm for the 2025 breeding season. He will stand for $6,500 live foal. “We are thrilled to have Classic Causeway at Crestwood Farm,” McLean said. “He was precocious at two, and a Grade I winner at three. He was versatile on both dirt and turf, with earnings over $1.5 million. His sire Giant's Causeway is a top sire-of-sires, with Not This Time proving to be an elite sire.” Owned by Old Kentucky Home LLC, bred by Kentucky West Racing LLC and Clarke M. Cooper Family Living Trust and trained by Ken McPeek, Classic Causeway also won the GII Lambholm South Tampa Bay Derby and GIII Sam F. Davis S. He was third in the GI Claiborne Breeders' Futurity. Classic Causeway posted a record of 24-4-3-4 and $1,519,651 in earnings. “Classic Causeway as a racehorse was one of the soundest, toughest horses I've trained,” McPeek said. “His natural early speed and being a son of Giant's Causeway gives him every chance as a sire.” The post Classic Causeway Retired to Crestwood Farm appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
