Grade I winner Preservationist (Arch–Flying Dixie, by Dixieland Band) died in Korea July 19, according to Korea Racing Authority records. The news was first reported in the U.S. by Paulick Report.

Racing for Centennial Farms and trained by Jimmy Jerkens, Preservationist won the 2019 GI Woodward Stakes and GII Suburban Stakes. He hit the board in nine of 11 starts, with six wins and earnings of $1,084,550.

He began his stud career at Airdrie Stud and sired 2024 GIII Peter Pan Stakes winner Antiquarian, who has gone on to finish second in this year's GII Suburban Stakes and GIII Blame Stakes.

Preservationist is also the sire of stakes winners In a Jam, Band of Gold, and Diakonissa. His son Chunk of Gold earned a spot in this year's Kentucky Derby with runner-up efforts in the GII Louisiana Derby and GII Risen Star Stakes. He was also second in the GIII Ohio Derby.

The 12-year-old Preservationist relocated to Korea last December.
