After standing for his first year at stud in 2022, world champion Guardian Angel AS will have a new home for the 2023 breeding season.

ACL Stuteri AB and Kjell Johansson’s Ohio stallion Guardian Angel AS, 6, 1:50.1 M  ($1,632,640) will stand the 2023 breeding season at Hickory Lane Farm.

Guardian Angel As (Archangel – Provide As – Allstar Hall) is the fastest trotting stallion standing in Ohio. He possesses an impressive resume of numerous Grand Circuit victories, including the elimination and $600,000 final of the 2019 Maple Leaf Trot, the $250,000 Spirit of Massachusetts Trot and the $175,000 Cleveland Classic at Northfield Park, where he established a 1:52 world record for trotting horses five years old and up on a half-mile track.

“Guardian Angel AS is a world champion who won over [1.6] million dollars," said Kevin Greenfield, Hickory Lane President. "He is a big, beautiful black son of Archangel who provides a needed outcross to many mares in Ohio. He is a proven champion who deserves the opportunity to stand equally beside the other fine stallions at Hickory Lane and have a chance to provide himself as a sire.”  

Guardian Angel AS will stand for an initial service fee of $4,000. Limited bookings are available. Contact Ashley Stickel at Hickory Lane Farm at 419-422-3004 or by email at [email protected].
