Hampton, NB — Retired pacer Carlspur p,1:48 ($910,406) now stands stud at Dr. Hugh J. Baird’s farm in Hampton, New Brunswick, Canada. He is the fastest and richest stallion standing in Atlantic Canada.

The auction is currently underway and runs until 5:00 p.m. on April 30, 2008.

All bids are to be submitted to Carlspur’s manager, Cheryl Greer, via e-mail at cherylgreer@telus.blackberry.net.
