In 2015, Thunder Gulch was pensioned from stud duties & will live out the rest of his days at the farm. He was selected as the "babysitter of sorts" to be a neighboring pasture companion & calming influence to the newly retired Triple Crown champion, American Pharoah.
#RIP
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Thunder Gulch due to the infirmities of old age. He was a champion on the track and at stud and will be greatly missed.
