Ice Box will stand the 2020 season in Pennsylvania
Ice Box , who won the 2010 Florida Derby (G1) and finished second in the 2010 Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands (G1), has been relocated to Cabin Creek Farm in Bernville, Pa., to stand the 2020 season.
"We are excited to bring a grade 1-winning son of Pulpit into Pennsylvania" Cabin Creek manager Maria Vorhauer said. "We are honored that Dream Walkin' Farms (Toby Keith), along with Baccari Bloodstock, Bob LaPenta, and the other syndicate partners, decided to bring Ice Box to the Pennsylvania breeders and Cabin Creek Farm."
Ice Box, a 13-year-old son of Pulpit out of the grade 2-winning Tabasco Cat mare Spice Island, has stood the past five years at Millennium Farms in Kentucky and has more than $5.9 million in progeny earnings. His second dam, Crown of Sheba, is a half sister to 1985 Horse of the Year and Kentucky Derby winner Spend a Buck.
Ice Box had a 3-1-1 record from 16 starts and earned $948,068.
"We feel that Ice Box is perfect for the mid-Atlantic region, offering the ability to produce soundness and longevity, as well as stakes horses like Heladero, Ice City Ghost, and graded stakes-placed Dubby Dubbie," Vorhauer said.
Ice Box will stand the 2020 season for a fee of $3,500 stands and nurses.
