Three Chimneys Farm: 40 Years of Excellence in American Thoroughbred Breeding Industry

One of the core philosophies that drives the professional team and ownership at Three Chimneys Farm is that "nobody does it alone". It takes teamwork, hard work, and a well thought out plan to accomplish goals. The farm is ushering in a new generation of horse men and women who are passionate about and committed to the health and well being of some of the most prized and coveted bloodstock in the breed. Be they world class mares that constitute our breeding band or stallions who are leading a resurgence in the stallion station's storied heritage.

We believe in long term partnerships which create "good growth", defined as growth that benefits all stakeholders equally. Our bloodstock department is very active when it comes to finding private bloodstock purchasing opportunities and building win-win opportunities for all involved. We look for reasons to work with our clients and invest in their futures, which allows us, in turn, to invest in our own.

Perhaps the finest example of our commitment to partnerships is best exemplified in our relationship with Leading owner Ron Winchell. In partnership, Three Chimneys raced Horse of the Year Gun Runner, who now stands at the farm alongside Volatile, Sky Mesa and Funtastic. Gun Runner's meteoric start at stud has many comparing him to Danzig and Mr. Prospector. In 2021 and 2022, respectively, Gun Runner was the Leading Freshman and Sophomore Sire in nearly all categories by a wide margin.  In 2023, he ranked #3 on the General Sire List in the US with over 17 and a half million dollars in earnings.  By year's end, he had sired 3 Group one Winners, 11 Group one  Stakes Horses, 12 Graded Stakes Winners, 24 Graded Stakes Horses, 16 Stakes Winners and 35 Stakes Horses. His impact on the breed is certain to be lasting.
