Tiger Ridge, a half-brother to major sires A.P. Indy and Summer Squall, has been sold to Mary Slack for stallion duty at her Wilgerbosdrift Stud in South Africa. The 10-year-old son of Storm Cat currently stands for $7,500 for a syndicate at Hartley/De Renzo near Ocala, Fla.

Tiger Ridge has sired 13 runners that have won or placed in stakes and the earners of nearly $3.4 million. His stakes winners include Tiger Belle, winner of last year's Calder Oaks, and Therecomesatiger, who captured the 2005 Commonwealth Turf Stakes at Churchill Downs.

The deal to stand Tiger Ridge, who is out of the Secretariat mare Weekend Surprise, was brokered in the United States by Ed Magnier of Hartley/De Renzo and Joe Brocklebank.
