“It is with great sadness that we announce Kadabra’s retirement from stud duty,” said Heffering. “Kadabra leaves a great legacy and influence on the Standardbred breed, not only in Ontario, but industry wide.

“Over the course of a 17-year stallion career, Kadabra has cemented his place as one of the all-time great trotting stallions with progeny earnings of over C$101 million.

“Champion fillies and colts included Bee A Magician, Emoticon Hanover, Daylon Magician, Flanagan Memory, Caprice Hill, Forbidden Trade, Poof She’s Gone, Will Take Charge, and many more.

“It has been a great honor for us to have cared for and managed Kadabra throughout his stallion career. Thank you for your support over the years.”

Editor’s Note: Kadabra will be profiled in the February 2021 issue of Hoof Beats magazine.
