Malathaat has a date with Into Mischief

https://paulickreport.com/news/bloodstock/champion-malathaat-to-visit-into-mischief-for-first-mating-in-2023/

That is awesome: the racing world will be looking forward to the product of this mating for sure!

An offer they couldn't refuse? too bad- he had a big following here in the United States and would have been very popular with the people had he stood in the US

Unfortunately I do not think he would be popular in the US. His sire stands for $10,000 and he won the Preakness. Japan probably did offer much more than any US based stud farm.

Thank you for the link;  I did read it yesterday and was delighted to see mention of the Godolphin Arabian at the end of the article.  After you filled me in on Rockridge and I read more about this farm it does seem to be a good place for Tourist.  I am grateful he did not go abroad.

I think it’s a good move for him. 

Hopefully he will have some very good opportunities to sire nice foals in NY.  NY does support their breeding program where most other states who had one have not been as supportive the past few years.
