WALNER

A World Champion and Dan Patch Two-Year-Old Trotting Colt of the Year, Walner was one of the most brilliant trotters of his generation. He won nine of his ten career starts, including seven of eight as a two-year-old, highlighted by victories in the Breeders Crown (elimination and final), Kindergarten Final and International Stallion Stake, while setting a two-year-old world record of 1:51.3. At three, he further showcased his exceptional speed with victory in the Stanley Dancer Memorial, recording a lifetime mark of 1:50.2. Combining breathtaking speed with remarkable consistency, Walner retired as one of the finest sons of Chapter Seven and one of the most exciting young stallion prospects in North America.

Walner has rapidly established himself among the world's premier young trotting sires. From his first crops of racing age, he has produced 330 winners, including 122 $100,000 earners, 181 performers in 1:55, 305 in 2:00, and progeny earnings exceeding US$51.3 million. His progeny have become among the most sought-after yearlings in North America, highlighted by sale toppers of US$925,000 at the Lexington Selected Sale and US$1 million at the Standardbred Horse Sale at Harrisburg, while consistently leading the major yearling sales by average. Combining elite race performance with extraordinary commercial success, Walner has firmly established himself as one of the world's premier young trotting sires.
