“We are excited to have the opportunity to stand such a talented and progressive colt as Tom’s Ready, and we’re appreciative to Mr. and Mrs. (Tom) Benson and the entire GMB Racing team,” Ned Toffey, general manager at Spendthrift, said in a July 10 release. “Tom’s Ready is one of the best-looking colts we’ve ever seen by More Than Ready, who is emerging as an important sire of sires, both in America and Australia.
“Tom’s Ready is incredibly sound and versatile, and we believe his Woody Stephens performance is just the beginning of a big future ahead.”
