Uncle Denny is a magnificent individual standing almost 17 hands. A veteran horsewoman called him "the finest specimen of Thoroughbred horseflesh that I have ever seen."

Uncle Denny's sire, In Excess (Ire), has sired more than 40 stakes winners, 12 of them graded, including three Grade 1 and three earners of more than $1,000,000 each. His runners have earned more than $27,000,000.

In Excess (Ire) is making his mark as a sire of sires. Indian Charlie has 72 percent winners from starters, 10 percent stakes winners from starters (21 stakes winners from his first four crops). In Excessive Bull has 70 percent winners from starters, 5 percent stakes winners from starters. Gibson County is among the leading freshman sires of 2006.

Uncle Denny is out of the good race mare Gift to the World, earner of $151,704, a daughter of the outstanding sire and broodmare sire, His Majesty. She's also the dam of stakes-placed Infinite Faith ($262,255) and is a half-sister to stakes winners Gourami ($380,998) and Deputy Sue ($231,226).

Uncle Denny will stand his second season at stud in 2008 at beautiful Tommy Town Thoroughbreds in the Santa Ynez Valley at a fee of $3,000, live foal. He is the property of a syndicate.
