Three Chimneys Farm

Three Chimneys Farm is an American thoroughbred race horse breeding farm in Midway, Kentucky established in 1972 by Mr. & Mrs. Robert N. Clay. Considered one of the world's pre-eminent stallion stations and nursery of thoroughbreds, the farm has been home to a number of famous horses including U.S. Triple Crown champion Seattle Slew, U.S. Filly Triple Crown champion Chris Evert, as well as Silver Charm, Chief's Crown, Genuine Risk, Point Given, Slew o'Gold, Capote and, since 2004, Smarty Jones.

In 2008, the Three Chimneys stallion roster includes Smarty Jones, Rahy, Dynaformer, Point Given, Yes It's True, Flower Alley, Good Reward, Sky Mesa, War Chant and Exchange Rate. Dual classic winner Big Brown has been confirmed as a Three Chimneys stallion for 2009.

Three Chimneys was the first thoroughbred breeding farm to advertise on the Internet. It also launched a series of commercials in 2006 to be aired during the Triple Crown races. The first one was a CGI of swimming sperm patterned after the positions in the 2000 Breeders' Cup Mile, won in dramatic fashion by Three Chimneys stallion War Chant, with the message, "To make a champion, begin with the first race." The rest were in the form of dating personals from several of the farm's stallions, seeking mares. Personalized letter commercials were made for Barbaro in 2006 and Big Brown in 2008.
