Signal Tap (Fappiano–South Sea Dancer, by Northern Dancer) died earlier this week at Haras Santa María de Araras in Brazil. He was 28 years old.

Bred by Will Farish in partnership with E. J. Hudson and W.S. Kilroy, Signal Tap, a $390,000 purchase out of the 1992 Keeneland July Sale by Centennial Farm, was trained by Scotty Schulhofer and posted his biggest career victories in the GIII Hialeah Turf Cup and GIII Bougainvillea H. He was also third in the GI Man O’ War S. and retired with seven wins from 25 career starts.

Signal Tap entered stud at Questroyal Stud in New York and from his third U.S. crop, was responsible for Got Koko, winner of the 2002 GI La Brea S. Once relocated to Julio Bozano’s stud in Brazil, he sired an additional 12 graded winners, six at the Group 1 level. He is the sire of 20 black-type winners to date overall.
