Background

Domestic Spending is a bay gelding who was bred in Great Britain by Rabbah Bloodstock. He was sired by Kingman, a champion British Thoroughbred racehorse who was the 2014 European Horse of the Year. His dam Urban Castle, is the only registered foal out of the stakes-winning Street Cry daughter who died in 2017. His second dam, Cloud Castle (by In the Wings), was a Group 3 winner (1998 Nell Gwyn Stakes) who twice placed in Group 1 company. She produced 11 winners.^[3] Seth Klarman's Klaravich Stables purchased Domestic Spending for the equivalent of 300,000 guineas (US$412,320) from Highclere Stud's consignment to Book 1 of the 2018 Tattersalls October Yearling Sale.^[4] The horse had to be gelded because he would not train.^[4] Kingman stands at Banstead Manor Stud in England for 150,000 Pounds (2020).^[3]

Domestic Spending is trained by Eclipse Award winning trainer Chad C. Brown.^[2]
