Seeking the Gold - Temper the Wind, by Elocutionist
Dark Bay or Brown • 2000

Washington's #1 First-Crop Sire In 2008
& #1 Second-Crop Sire In 2009

Seven Stakes Horses Already In His First Two Crops!


PRIVATE GOLD was a racehorse - a racehorse with pedigree, top and bottom.

PRIVATE GOLD was a precocious runner who captured the $100,000 James C. Ellis Juvenile Stakes, finished second to undefeated Eclipse Champion Vindication in the Grade 3 Kentucky Cup Juvenile Stakes and was weighted on the Experimental Free Handicap at 2. He returned at 3 to win the $100,000 Rushaway Stakes. In all, he won or placed in five stakes races from 13 starts, and retired with earnings of $208,047.

PRIVATE GOLD carries on one of the great sire lines in Thoroughbred history: Native Dancer to Raise a Native to Mr. Prospector to Seeking the Gold. His sire is a Grade 1-winning millionaire who is credited with 90 stakes winners and the collective earners of more than $87 million. Seeking the Gold is also a proven sire of sires, and counts Cape Town, Petionville, Mutakddim and Dubai Millennium among his successful sons at stud.

PRIVATE GOLD is a half-brother to stakes winners Stem the Tide ($405,093), Private Jet ($257,117) and Gottcha Last ($111,488) and to stakes-placed Shuttered ($226,918) and Cancun Ruler. His female family boasts more than 30 stakes horses in the first three dams.

PRIVATE GOLD was represented by his first runners in 2008. This initial crop of 2-year-olds yielded six winners from 14 starters, including the stakes horses Primadonna Pearl and Italian Gold, and established him as the leading freshman sire in Washington for that season.

PRIVATE GOLD repeated his reign as the state's leading second-crop sire of 2009, with year-end progeny earnings of $242,742. His second 2-year-old crop featured the stakes-placed winners Edaciously, Miss Cygogne, Private Jettz and Movie Clip, as well as the stakes-placed Private Fortune. To date, his total progeny earnings are more than $320,000.
