Sig Sauer 3,1:49.3 ($1,151,312), the likely choice for 2024 Dan Patch 3-year-old Trotting Colt of the Year is the winner of nine of 15 lifetime starts.
Sig Sauer won four of five starts at the age of 2 while taking a record of 1:53.3 winning the New Jersey Sire Stakes final. Sig Sauer is the fastest 3-year-old trotter of 2024 by virtue of his 1:49.3 win in the Kentucky Futurity which is the only sub-1:50 win by any 3-year-old trotter this season. In addition to the Kentucky Futurity, victories by Sig Sauer this year at 3 include his division of the Stanley Dancer, the Beal, and the final of the Breeders Crown.
A $200,000 yearling purchase, Sig Sauer is a breathtakingly handsome son of the great Muscle Hill out of Sigilwig by Donato Hanover.
According to his trainer Noel Daley, “There isn’t a 3-year-old trotter this year that can beat Sig Sauer when he is at his best.”
From a great maternal family that includes Back Of The Neck 1:51s ($1,463,733), Broadway Donna 1:51.1 ($1,434,735) and Fashion Schooner 1:50 ($765,454), Sig Sauer will stand in Pennsylvania at Hanover Shoe Farms for a service fee of $8,000. Shares in this exciting young stallion will be sold.
