Northern Farm in Japan has pensioned U.S. Horse of the Year and multiple graded stakes producer Azeri as a broodmare.
The 23-year-old daughter of Jade Hunter has a new job as a "lead horse" at the farm, where she is put out among recently weaned foals to help them during their transition, according to a video released Dec. 30 by Northern Horse Park and first reported by Daily Racing Form.
