A big congratulations to McLain Ward and team on the purchase of Lestro Vd Valckenborg. The day Lestro came into our stable as a 7-year-old, we wrote on the door “Aachen 2026.” Lestro has brought us so much pride and joy to produce. We were in awe of him every step of the way and we can’t wait to watch him in the big leagues. Where we knew from day one he belongs.

It will be hard for us to no longer have him in our stable as through the years he has become a barn favorite. We wish you so much luck in the years to come and cannot wait to cheer you both on.
