Lane's End Farm

Lane's End Farm

Lane's End Farm is a thoroughbred race horse breeding farm in Versailles, Kentucky established in 1979. The original land was part of "Bosque Bonita Farm" which means beautiful woods and was originally owned by Abe Buford, a Confederate General. The land was later bought by leading horseman, John H. Morris.

Leamington, sire of Aristides, winner of the first Kentucky Derby, stood at stud at Bosque Bonita Farm in 1866.

In 1875, General George Custer came to Bosque Bonita Farm to buy cavalry remounts before the Battle of Little Big Horn.

Present day

The farm is currently owned by the Farish family.

The farm has been home to a number of famous horses including 1987 Belmont Stakes winner Bet Twice, 1999 Preakness Stakes winner Charismatic, 1999 Belmont Stakes winner Lemon Drop Kid, Law Society, 1992 Belmont Stakes winner A. P. Indy, 1990 Preakness Stakes winner Summer Squall, and 2006 U.S. Champion 3-Yr-Old Filly Wait A While.

As of 2007, the current stallion roster includes A. P. Indy, as well as Gulch, Dixie Union, Dixieland Band, Lemon Drop Kid, Mineshaft, Rock Hard Ten, Pleasant Tap, Smart Strike, Came Home, and Stephen Got Even.

Lane's End Farm has another stallion division in Texas and just added top sprinter Too Much Bling to their stallion roster in 2007.

Upon the retirement of 2007 2yr. old champion War Pass, he will then join the list of stallions at Lanes End.
