Grade II Winner Windsor Castle Retired

• Print

Windsor Castle, a multiple graded stakes winner for Dogwood Stable, has been retired from racing with $591,715 in earnings.

A 6-year-old son of Lord Carson, Windsor Castle won or placed in 11 stakes, all of which were graded. He captured the Remsen Stakes (gr. II) as a 2-year-old in 2000 and the Hal's Hope (gr. III) and William Donald Schaefer (gr. III) Handicaps in 2003. His stakes-placings included efforts in the Dwyer Stakes (gr. II) and Meadowlands Cup Handicap (gr. II).

Bred by Windwoods Farm in Kentucky, Windsor Castle initially raced for his trainer, Frank Alexander, who bought him for $45,000 at the 2000 Ocala Breeders' Sales Company March sale of 2-year-olds in training from Eddie Woods, agent. Following the Remsen in the fall of 2000, Dogwood (Cot Campbell, president) bought a majority interest in Windsor Castle from Alexander, who remained as trainer.

Windsor Castle, who was produced from the It's Freezing mare Frigidette, won six of 29 races.
