   Age Group Pacing Star Begins Stud Career

Mach Three is the fastest son of Matt's Scooter - sire of the winner's of over $50 million.

Joseph Muscara, the Owner of Mach Three, has announced that: Mach Three p, 2,1:51.1; p,3,1:49m,1:51.1h ($2,376,700) is retiring from racing and will stand in North America at stud for the 2003 breeding season.

The brilliant three-year old son of Matt Scooter- All Included is one of the most exciting horses to come to Stud boasting impeccable credentials from his two years on the Racetrack.

As a juvenile he won just under $1 million in just nine starts. His most notable accomplishment was capturing Canada’s richest two-year-old event “The $1,123,400 Metro Pace”.

With a courageous effort he produced a 1:51.4s victory after winning his elimination the previous week in 1:51.1s.

His conquests that year also included victories in divisions of “The Nassagewaya Stakes” and “The Champlain Stakes.

The final test of the year was “The $968,502 Breeders Crown where he finished a remarkable second beaten by a mere nose in 1:51 concluding a sensational year.

This past season he added to his glory by winning, a second million-dollar race, the gruelling $1 million (US) Meadowlands Pace. That night he simply dominated the field with an authoritative 1:49 clocking.

Mach Three was superb in “The Oliver Wendell Holmes” clocking 1:49.2 and he was a bang up second in the $1.5million North American Cup pacing his mile in 1:49.1.

He was sensational in an easy 1:51.1 (half-mile track), world record first heat win of The Little Brown Jug. Incredibly, Mach Three’s slowest race time ever (excluding his first three lifetime race starts) was 1:52.3h and that was over a half-mile track.

“No boots, no head poles, no hassles, Mach Three was the easiest Champion I ever trained” declared trainer Bill Robinson of the 18-race winner. “Mach Three had an exceptional turn of speed with the greatest attitude of any horse that I ever trained.”

Owned by Joe Muscara of Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania, Mach Three presents breeders with highly desirable qualities.

Being a son of Matt Scooter from an Abercrombie dam, he is beautifully suited as an outcross stallion, which is presently essential throughout the North American breeding industry.
