This statement from the Hronis brother has aged well:

Quote:
We are going to stay involved in his next career as a stallion at Lane's End, where they have a proven track record of nurturing a young stallion's career.
Just a few hours later, Lane's End casts off Frankel's full brother Noble Mission and sells him to stand in Japan.

His oldest runners are only 4yos.

In that first crop he got Travers winner (and Kentucky Derby runner-up) Code of Honor. No mean feat for a European-based runner who is bred for turf.

Maybe they did it to make room for Gift Box. Karma would have Code of Honor winning the BC Classic...
