Hi guys doing a bit of research on some Pedigree
The above horse won 2 x G3 and a group 1, he was by Rip Van Winkle, trained by A O’ Brien, he was eventually sold to one of the Comer Bros ( Construction & Property Mogul) did he go to Stud ? Can’t find any reference to a stud career on line !!!
Pause Switch to Standard View Dick Whittington to Stud ????

I keep a file of European sires.  Never heard of him.

He stands at Luke Comer’s stud as a private stallion. They bought a huge number of cheap mares a couple of years ago at Goffs. I believe they may have (had) over 100 mares.

Think I might get my own “Jim Bolger” type private stallion to cover my handful of mares

Obviously didn’t go to stud so, thanks Kincsem

Thanks Willycayote, that explains why I couldn’t find anything online, I’m sure a lot of those mares got culled so

He is included as a sire in the 2018 Return of Mares, covered 15 named mares of whom two were not owned by Luke Comer or family. So yes he is at stud.
