WINTER QUARTER FARM purchased and established in 1948, is a
276 acre Thoroughbred operation moving into the 4th generation of same
family management.
The seed enterprise was old Duntreath Farm owned by Mrs. Silas B. Mason on land now
occupied by Gardenside subdivision. One of the first broodmares moved here by grandmother
Mason was MAID OF DUNTREATH, the grandam of the great champion KELSO.
Over the years Winter
Quarter, now owned by
Don M. Robinson and
managed by son Ferran,
has transitioned from
tobacco and cattle production
to an exclusively
equine operation –– breeding and raising
foals, breaking and
training yearlings. In
addition Winter Quarter
consigns its produce to
the Kentucky sales.
In recent years the farm has raised Grade I winners GOLDEN PHEASANT, STAR OF
COZZENE, MATTY G, VICAR, BALANCE, and OVERARCHING in our name or on behalf of
an international clientele. This land has allowed us to achieve the goal of raising some of the
best racehorses in the world.
