Century Farroh, a prominent figure in the world of Harness Racing, has recently retired from his illustrious racing career to embark on a new journey in stud duties. Hailing from Century Farms in Ontario, Canada, Century Farroh shares a remarkable lineage with the renowned champion Somebeachsomewhere, who revolutionized the sport upon his debut in 2007.
Born in 2016, Century Farroh, a descendant of Mach Three and Beach Towel, quickly made a name for himself on the Ontario tracks. Trained by Dr. Ian Moore, the talented stallion showcased his prowess as a 3-year-old in 2019, securing an impressive 12 victories out of 16 starts and earning the prestigious title of Canadian 3-year-old Pacing Colt of the Year.
As he progressed to his 4-year-old season, Century Farroh faced formidable competition across North America, culminating in a triumphant win at the 2020 Breeders Crown Final, where he outshone top earners like Bettors Wish and This Is The Plan. His exceptional performance led to him being crowned Canadian Horse of the Year in 2020, solidifying his status as a racing sensation.
Retiring in 2022 with total earnings exceeding $1.5 million, Century Farroh left behind a legacy of victories over esteemed rivals such as Bettors Wish, Captain Crunch, and Dancin Lou. Transitioning to stud duties, Century Farroh’s offspring are now poised to make their mark in the racing world, with his first crop set to debut as 2-year-olds in June.
Having been bred at Llowalong Farms in Victoria during the 2022 season, Century Farroh’s progeny are making their way to Yearling Sales nationwide. Notably, at the recent Morphettville Sales Complex event, two lots representing Century Farroh were featured, including a filly from Nevada Roulette and another from Soho Aphrodite, both boasting impressive pedigrees and promising futures.
With his offspring generating excitement in the racing community, Century Farroh’s impact on the sport continues to reverberate through the industry. As trainers and enthusiasts eagerly anticipate the debut of his progeny, the legacy of this exceptional stallion is poised to endure, shaping the future of Harness Racing for generations to come.
