Branded By Lindy to stand at Hickory Lane Farm

Lindy Farms of Connecticut, LLC is excited to announce that their outstanding son of Chapter Seven, Branded By Lindy, 2,1:52, “21, 3, 1:50.3 “22 ($561,392) (Chapter Seven – The Lindy Label – Cantab Hall) will be syndicated and stand at Hickory Lane Farm, Ohio beginning with the 2024 breeding season.

Branded By Lindy is the fifth fastest son of Chapter Seven behind Gimpanzee and Walner. He was a brilliant two-year-old in 2021 winning eight out of his eleven starts, (seven in a row) and finished out of the top three once.

His victories were all major stakes wins, including but not limited to the Breeders Crown elimination where he beat King Of The North, Double Deceiver and Fast As The Wind; the Bluegrass Stakes where he bested Rebuff and Temporal Hanover; and the International Stallion Stakes where he again beat King Of The North and 2022 Hambletonian Champion, Cool Papa Bell.

As a three-year-old, he won the $400,000.00 Kentucky Sires Stakes Final and finished second in both the Breeders Crown elimination and the Empire Breeder’s Classic and third in the Stanley Dancer Memorial.

Hall of Famer Frank “The Elder” Antonacci of Lindy Farms says that “Branded By Lindy represents a deep Lindy Farm pedigree on both the paternal and maternal side. Chapter Seven’s dam, La Riviera Lindy, traces back to Dream Vacation, Harmonius and the outstanding mare, Vanessa Hill. On the maternal side through Candy Crown, he is a direct descendent of the dams of Lindy’s Crown and Speedy Crown. Lindy Farms will retain an interest in Branded By Lindy and support him.”

Trainer, Domenico Cecere stated, “Branded By Lindy was a top two-year-old in 2021. He was an extremely fast and talented colt. He was my top Hambletonian horse for 2022.”

Kevin Greenfield, President of Hickory Lane Farm, believes Branded By Lindy will be a perfect fit for the very successful and ultra-rich Ohio program.

“Branded By Lindy was a fast and talented two-year-old who won often and beat the best of his age. With his pedigree, outstanding looks and conformation, he will be a very positive addition to Hickory Lane’s deep stallion roster.”

Branded By Lindy is being syndicated under very favorable financial terms to ensure strong participation by Breeders.
