20% Share To Be Offered in Keeneland Championship Sale.
October 15, 2025, Lexington, KY – THORPEDO ANNA RETIRED TO HILL ‘N’ DALE FARMS AT XALAPA.Trainer Kenny McPeek announces 2024 Horse of The Year Thorpedo Anna has retired from racing and will call John G. Sikura’s Hill ’n’ Dale Farms at Xalapa in Lexington, KY, her home as she embarks on her second career as a broodmare.
“For everybody out there that’s worried about her, you can rest at ease. She’s fine.” McPeek says “She has been examined by several veterinarians. Dr. Bramlage of Rood and Riddle found some very mild bone bruising which is consistent with horses in work at her level and she could go back to training in 90 days, but we have opted to retire her.”
Thorpedo Anna retires with over $5.4 million in earnings and 10 Graded Stakes races wins. She is owned by Hill ‘n’ Dale Farms, Judy Hicks, Mark Edwards, and Magdalena Racing.
A 20% share will be auctioned at Keeneland’s Championship Sale October 29th at Del Mar. “It’s an incredible privilege to offer an interest in reigning Horse of the Year Thorpedo Anna at the Championship Sale,” said Shannon Arvin, President and CEO of Keeneland. “Her brilliance on the track has captured the imagination of fans everywhere. Buyers now have an extraordinary opportunity to share in her future as a broodmare.”
“As a race horse, Thorpedo Anna is one of the most accomplished fillies in history and has been an exciting horse to watch” says John G. Sikura. “Everyone at Hill ‘n’ Dale looks forward to being a part of her next chapter as a top broodmare.” McPeek added “We’re really proud of her. She’s had tremendous support – thank you to all the fans that have cheered her on during her career.” # # #
