Breeders Cup hero Flightline retired to stud

Flightline has been retired to stud following his sensational Breeders’ Cup Classic victory on Saturday. The four-year-old prevailed by 8.25 lengths at Keeneland, maintaining his perfect record of six wins in as many starts for trainer John Sadler. Flightline did not make his debut until April 2021, but has been on a steep upward trajectory since his initial victory, winning a claimer at Del Mar before going on to secure four successive Grade One triumphs, culminating in the Breeders’ Cup. His smallest margin of victory was six lengths in the Metropolitan Handicap at Belmont, while his 19-and-a-half-length win in the Pacific Classic counts as his most conclusive success.
