  • The 2026 McMahon & Hill Pinhook Now Open - First Purchase at The July Sale

    Arabian Lion x Spin Munnings Filly The 2026 M&H Pinhook, LLC is now open to investors! With a minimum one-time investment of $25,000, you'll participate in a diversified portfolio of carefully selected pinhooking prospects assembled by McMahon & Hill Bloodstock. Our strategy is built around purchasing yearlings, weanlings, and select broodmare prospects, spreading risk across multiple horses and market segments while capitalizing on opportunities throughout the marketplace. Unlike a traditional single-season partnership, our annual pinhook partnerships are structured as a long-term investment program. As horses are bought and sold, capital is continually reinvested into new opportunities, allowing us to build a diversified portfolio over multiple years. As proceeds become available, the partnership will evaluate opportunities for distributions while maintaining approximately six months of expenses and the flexibility to pursue future investments. We're excited to announce one of the partnership's first purchases: an outstanding filly by freshman sire Arabian Lion out of a Munnings mare, purchased at the Fasig-Tipton July Sale. Click here to view her pedigree. We liked this filly from the time we saw her as a foal, and she has continued to develop into an athletic, precocious yearling with all the qualities we look for in a successful pinhook prospect. We purchased her for $40,000 and are proud to develop her in partnership with Hidden Brook Farm. Our pinhooking program has continued to produce outstanding results. This spring, we sold a Bolt d'Oro filly for $300,000 after purchasing her for $52,000 and a Twirling Candy filly for $250,000 after purchasing her for $130,000. Our partnership with Hidden Brook has also produced success over the past years, including a Constitution filly we purchased for $210,000 and later sold for $675,000 as a two-year-old. We're excited to add another promising prospect to that growing record of success. Arabian Lion, a son of Justify standing at Spendthrift Farm, was exceptionally talented. Trained by Bob Baffert, he won impressively on debut at Santa Anita before capturing the Grade 1 Woody Stephens Stakes and earning a 109 Beyer Speed Figure. Hidden Brook also has firsthand experience with the stallion, having sold Arabian Lion for $600,000 as a two-year-old before his successful racing career. If you've been considering investing in a pinhook, the 2026 M&H Pinhook, LLC offers the opportunity to invest alongside an experienced team with a proven history of identifying value and producing results. To learn more about the 2026 M&H Pinhook, LLC please contact us. We look forward to welcoming new partners as we build another exciting portfolio of pinhooking prospects.

  • Bourbon Memory Returns to Winning Form at Ellis Park

    July 5, 2026 Bourbon Memory returned to the winner's circle in style on Sunday, capturing an allowance at Ellis Park with a determined late rally over one mile on the turf. The 4-year-old daughter of Bolt d'Oro settled comfortably off the pace before producing a strong stretch run to win by a half-length, earning a 95 Equibase Speed Figure, the second-highest speed figure of her career. Purchased for just $27,000 at the Keeneland September Yearling Sale, Bourbon Memory has continued to reward her connections. The stakes-winning filly has now won five of her 11 career starts and has amassed $239,263 in earnings. After debuting as a 3-year-old in 2025, Bourbon Memory put together an impressive four-race winning streak that included a victory in the Serena's Song Stakes. While her last few starts didn't produce the results she was capable of—including one trip where circumstances simply didn't go her way—Sunday's performance was an encouraging reminder of the talent she's shown throughout her career. Congratulations to trainer Brendan Walsh and the ownership partnership of Bourbon Lane Stable, Seidman Stables LLC, All My Hart Racing, Inc., Fergus Galvin, and Carl Barry on another memorable victory. Interested in joining a Bourbon Lane partnership? Our 2026 Yearling Partnership is now open. If you've been looking for an opportunity to experience Thoroughbred ownership with an experienced team, we'd love to hear from you.

  • Allthekingshorses Breaks Her Maiden on the Synthetic at Cambridge

    The 2024 Bourbon Lane Stable New Zealand Partnership was thrilled to see Allthekingshorses break her maiden on the synthetic track at Cambridge in New Zealand on June 17th. This 3-year-old filly by King’s Legacy has continued to improve with every start, and on her fourth attempt she got the job done. It was her second run on the synthetic surface, showing clear progress from her third-place finish last time out when she first tried it. Trained by Stephen Marsh, Allthekingshorses showed real determination to hold on for the win. We’re excited to see where she goes next and look forward to continued success with the 2024 Bourbon Lane Stable New Zealand Partnership. We extend our congratulations to Stephen Marsh and his entire team on another successful afternoon at the races.

  • Erin Go Bragh Returns to Winning Form at Te Rapa

    Bourbon Lane Stable was thrilled to see Erin Go Bragh return to the winner's circle with an impressive victory at Te Rapa on June 13. The 5-year-old has been a consistent performer throughout his career and has provided plenty of excitement for his ownership group. After a series of solid efforts, it was especially rewarding to see him put everything together and deliver a performance that reflected the talent we have always known he possesses. Trained by Stephen Marsh, Erin Go Bragh showed determination and class throughout the race, earning a well-deserved victory and reminding us why he has been such a valuable member of the Bourbon Lane Stable roster. With the win, Erin Go Bragh's career record now stands at 11 starts with 3 wins, 3 second-place finishes, and 1 third-place finish. Consistency like that is difficult to achieve in this sport and is a testament to both the horse and the team behind him. We extend our congratulations to Stephen Marsh and his entire team on another successful afternoon at the races.

Congratulations to co-owners Six Column Stables, LLC. The team went back to Churchill on Friday last week to cheer on Ractoneuse as she broke her maiden in her 19th attempt!

  • Bourbon Betty Breaks Maiden at Aqueduct

    Bourbon Betty made a strong statement in her turf debut, breaking her maiden in impressive fashion in a Maiden Special Weight at Aqueduct last week on April 16th. The 3-year-old filly went straight to the front and never looked back. She showed determination down the stretch, steadily extending her advantage to win by a comfortable margin. After a challenging first start over a sloppy dirt track at Gulfstream, she bounced back with confidence and proved she was ready to roll on the grass. Bourbon Betty is part of our 2025 U.S. Two-Year-Old Partnership and was purchased for $90,000 at last spring’s OBS March Sale. By Mendelssohn, she hails from a successful turf family, and we’re excited to see what the rest of the summer holds for her. Congratulations to our partners Bourbon Lane Stable, David Hampson, and Old Guys Rules Racing Stables on the victory. Wins like this are what partnership racing is all about. If you’re interested in joining our Bourbon Lane Partnerships, we’d love to connect and help you get involved with future runners. A special thank you to trainer Mark Hennig and his team, along with jockey Jose Lezcano, for guiding Bourbon Betty to the winner’s circle.

  • OBS April Recap - Pinhook Success & Purchases for clients including the 2026 Bourbon Lane Two-Year-Old LLC

    The OBS April Sale was a busy week for us, with a mix of rewarding pinhook results and some exciting additions for our program. Twirling Candy - The Bull Unbridled We were especially pleased with our Twirling Candy filly for the 2025 M&H Pinhook LLC, who sold for $250,000. We purchased her for $130,000 at last year’s Fasig Tipton October Sale, and she continued to progress throughout the winter. After breezing a solid 10.1, she really put everything together physically and attracted strong interest, ultimately selling to West Point Thoroughbreds. We were also active buying, adding two fillies to the 2026 Bourbon Lane Two-Year-Old LLC we are very excited about, one by Drain the Clock for $150,000 and another by Volatile for $130,000. Both fillies had outstanding works and showed themselves well all week. The Volatile filly will head to Keeneland to train with Ben Colebrook, while the Drain the Clock filly joins Ian Wilkes at Churchill Downs. The Drain the Clock is a strong, forward dirt type, while the Volatile filly is a fluid mover who looks like she will have options going two turns on dirt or turf. Click here to view the pedigree for Drain the Clock - Big Carat Click here to view the pedigree for Volatile - Bemus Point In addition, we secured two fillies for our clients training with Dan Blacker, a Temple City filly for $75,000 and an Oscar Performance filly for $225,000. The Temple City filly will join the same ownership as El Potente, who we purchased at the OBS June Sale in 2021. He has gone on to be a two-time Grade 3 winner and Grade 2 placed. Overall, it was a productive and encouraging sale on both the buying and selling side, and we are looking forward to the next two-year-old sale in Maryland in just a few weeks. Partnership Opportunities For the 2026 Bourbon Lane Two-Year-Old LLC, the minimum buy-in is $10,000, allowing partners to participate in ownership while sharing in the costs and experience of racing a young horse. For more information about the partnership or to inquire about joining, please contact Bourbon Lane Stable.

  • The 2026 Bourbon Lane NZ LLC Secures Two Outstanding Fillies at the Inglis Easter Sale

    Mike and Jamie have just returned from a successful trip to the Inglis Easter Yearling Sale in Australia, where the goal was to secure at least one more exceptional filly for the 2026 Bourbon Lane New Zealand LLC. We are pleased to share that we exceeded expectations, coming home with two outstanding additions to the team. Our first purchase, Lot 36 , is a striking filly by Zoustar, the same sire as our own Queen Zou, pictured below winning the Group 2 Rich Hill Mile earlier this year. She immediately stood out for her presence, pedigree, and athleticism, all qualities we consistently look for when identifying future stars. Zoustar was crowned Champion Australian Sire for the 2024 and 2025 season and continues to deliver elite level performance year after year. He boasts an outstanding 69% winners to runners strike rate and has amassed more than $165 million in progeny earnings, along with 75 stakes winners, including 11 at Group 1 level. We rounded out the sale with a powerful filly by Written Tycoon, Lot 220 , who strongly resembles Velocious (pictured below), the Stephen Marsh trained Champion Two-Year-Old in New Zealand. She is strong, balanced, and full of quality, an exciting prospect with all the attributes of a high-class filly. Written Tycoon has been a key sire for Stephen Marsh, producing many of his stable stars, including champion Velocious and recent Group 1 winner Well Written. A proven force at the elite level, he has sired 18 Group 1 winners among his 76 stakes winners. He is also the sire of our own Tale of the Gypsy, who performed admirably at the elite level, finishing fourth in the Group 1 Sistema Stakes. These two fillies join an already impressive group of 10 yearlings we secured at Karaka and Magic Millions earlier this year, forming an exciting lineup for this partnership. If you haven't already joined us, there's still time to get involved! Beyond the quality of the horses, what truly sets this experience apart is the partnership itself. Being involved in our New Zealand program with Stephen Marsh offers owners a genuine behind the scenes experience, with regular communication and insights directly from the stable. Combined with the camaraderie of a passionate ownership group and the opportunity to enjoy racing in New Zealand, it becomes far more than an investment. It is an experience.

  • Bourbon Flight Breaks Maiden at Turfway Park

    Bourbon Flight  showed plenty of determination on March 12, battling all the way to the wire to break his maiden at Turfway Park. The 4-year-old fought hard through the stretch, digging deep in the final strides to get up by a head and secure his first career victory. It was a gritty effort and a rewarding result for his connections after continuing to develop and progress with racing. Bourbon Flight is part of our 2023 U.S. Yearling Partnership, and wins like this are exactly what makes the partnership experience so rewarding. Watching these horses grow, develop, and ultimately make their way to the winner’s circle is what ownership is all about. Congratulations to our partners Bourbon Lane Stable and Six Column Stables, LLC on the victory. A big thank you to trainer Ian R. Wilkes and his team, as well as jockey Irving Moncada, for helping guide Bourbon Flight to the winner’s circle.
