Rags to Riches is scheduled to be bred to Galileo, who stands at John Magnier and partners' Coolmore Stud in Ireland. Henrythenavigator stands at Ashford Stud, a division of Coolmore, near Versailles, Ky.
Rags to Riches, the champion 3-year-old filly of 2007, became the first filly in 102 years to win the Belmont Stakes when she bested eventual Horse of the Year Curlin by a head.
Out of Kentucky Broodmare of the Year Better Than Honour, Rags to Riches is a half-sister to 2006 Belmont Stakes winner Jazil , 2008 Peter Pan Stakes (gr. II) winner Casino Drive, and 2009 Breeders’ Cup Marathon winner Man of Iron.
