Does anyone know what became of Gronkowski? His last 4 races were in Saudi Arabia, the last being the European Union Cup in December 2021. Because of that its like impossible to find anything. I know in late 2019 a Saudi Arabian owner(Khalid bin Mishref) bought part ownership, so maybe he is at stud there?

yikes if you can't find anything perhaps we should take a trip to the bermuda triangle and look for him there ;)
but in a more serious note, perhaps try asking Phoenix Thoroughbreds?

I couldn't find any info on him, but I did email Phoenix Thoroughbreds to see if they'd give any info. I'll report back if I hear anything!

Thanks, I've been wondering about Gronk as well.

I tried again. It looks like Phoenix sold him to Khalid Mishrif Bin Shanan for his last couple starts in Saudi Arabia. That isn't shown anywhere else I had to go look at https://www.frusiya.com/ I can't link to his card thing cause that isn't how it works but if you put it on English(if it switched back to Arabic) and then use the search, it will pull up the very basic info. This page is exceptionally slow to use.

I suppose in a couple years, we'll find out if he is at stud there. Since if he went to stud in 2022, his first foals wouldn't have been born until 2023. They are at 2020 on their online studbook right now, though they do show covers, so we may only need to wait until they update to 2022, which should be sometime next year but first they need to do 2021.
