Legendary Hanover will join the stallion group at Southwind Farms in New Jersey

Legendary Hanover, winner of this year's Meadowlands Pace, Cane Pace and 2023 O'Brien 2-year-old Pacing Colt of the Year, will be syndicated and stand at Southwind Farms in Pennington, New Jersey, beginning in 2025.

The brilliant son of Huntsville set multiple stakes and track records including in this year's Meadowlands Pace (p,3,1:46 3/5-'24), Cane Pace (p,3,1:46 2/5-'24) and the Empire Breeders (p,3,1:48 1/5f-'24).

Trainer Anthony Beaton says, "Legendary Hanover is very intelligent, one of the smartest horses I've ever been around. He possessed a flawless and powerful gait and has a huge set of lungs."

After setting the stakes record in the Meadowlands Pace, driver James MacDonald said, "He's all business, he's a scary animal that is simply very fast and talented.”

Owned by Eric Good, West Wins Stable and Mark Dumain and trained by Anthony Beaton throughout his career, the 12-time winner retires with $1,088,681 in career earnings.
