Edited Press ReleaseLeading New York breeder Chester Broman will disperse his bloodstock in 2027, with Sequel managing the dispersal. The offering will begin with a draft of 28 mares and broodmare prospects at the Keeneland January Sale, followed by 2-year-olds in training throughout the spring and yearlings in the fall.Mr. Broman and his late wife, Mary, began breeding Thoroughbreds at their Chestertown Farm in Chestertown, New York, in the late 1990s. To date, their program has produced 376 winners with earnings approaching $60 million, including no fewer than 56 individual stakes winners.Among the most notable are GI Florida Derby winner Friends Lake (A.P. Indy); Bar of Gold (Medaglia d'Oro), heroine of the GI 2017 Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Sprint; Artemis Agrotera (Roman Ruler), winner of both the GI Frizette Stakes and GI Ballerina Stakes; and Spirit of St Louis (Medaglia d'Oro), winner of the GI Pegasus World Cup Turf Invitational Stakes and GI Turf Classic.Other standouts include graded stakes winners Seeking the Ante (Seeking the Gold); Khancord Kid (Lemon Drop Kid), the dam of Bar of Gold and Spirit of St Louis; Highway Star (Girolamo) and Coinage (Tapit), as well as millionaire Mr. Buff (Friend Or Foe). The Broman-bred stakes winners also include four Empire Classic winners, most recently Iron Dome (Into Mischief), who races in partnership with L and N Racing LLC and captured the 2026 renewal on Oct. 24.Although the Bromans have traditionally raced their homebreds, a more commercial approach in recent years has brought considerable success in the sales ring. Notable graduates include Chestertown (Tapit), a $2-million OBS March 2-year-old purchase who subsequently became a stakes winner; Hejazi (Bernardini), a record-breaking $3.55-million Fasig-Tipton Midlantic sales-topper who went on to become multiple Grade I-placed; and Inshallah (Flightline), a $2.1 million FTMMAY graduate who earned 'TDN Rising Star' presented by Hagyard honors with an impressive debut victory in a maiden special weight at Del Mar in September.The operation's success has been matched by its consistency, with at least one stakes winner emerging from every crop from 2001 through 2022. The Bromans have been voted New York's leading breeder eight times, and 14 horses bred by the couple have earned New York-bred championship honors. They have also led breeders of New York-breds by earnings on numerous occasions.Becky Thomas, who has advised, trained and sold horses for Mr. Broman for two decades, also reflected on the dispersal.“It has been such a privilege to work with and train for Mr. Broman and Ms. Mary for so many years,” Thomas said. “Watching these female families take shape–some over the course of 20 years–and reflecting on the remarkable horses I have had the opportunity to train at Sequel has been truly humbling.“So much of that success begins at Chestertown Farm, where farm manager Gregg Falk has done a tremendous job caring for these exceptional mares and their foals, giving the young horses an outstanding foundation before they come to us in Florida as weanlings. His dedication and care have been an invaluable part of this program, and I sincerely look forward to seeing these families continue to flourish in the years to come.”The post Chester Broman Dispersal To Begin at Keeneland January appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
