Lower than I thought it would be. The limited book will probably help.

Awww, I was hoping he'd stick around. But will be nice to see him try the mile.

[BaroqueAgain1]

Is the Cigar a one-turn mile? That should be right in PJ's wheelhouse.

It is.

I don't know why they're retiring him. I get nothing is sure.. but Met Mile?

[carole]

Siyouni’s fee is jumping up to €75,000 for the 2018 breeding season. Was previously €40,000. I believe Sea The Stars has also gone up from €125,000 to €135,000 but I’m not entirely sure.

Right? I would've LOVED to see Gun Runner head to the Met, but if he's not, PJ seems an easy gamble.

Ocala Stud has set stud fees for its 11-stallion roster for 2018, led again by Canadian Horse of the Year Uncaptured and Grade 1 winner The Big Beast, who will both stand for a fee of $6,000 S&N.

Uncaptured has been Florida’s most popular stallion in recent years, covering a state-high 140 mares in 2017. The multiple Graded stakes-winning millionaire by Lion Heart was represented by his first crop of yearlings in 2017, which averaged $37,046 at the sales and included a $170,000 filly at OBS October. The Big Beast, by former Florida champion freshman sire Yes It’s True, was represented by his first crop of weanlings this year, including a $40,000 colt at Keeneland November.

Florida’s second most-popular stallion in 2017 proved to be first-year sire Jess’s Dream, who bred 122 mares. The regally-bred son of two Horse of the Year winners – Curlin and Rachel Alexandra – will head into his second season at stud in 2018 with his fee unchanged at $5,000 S&N.

Ocala Stud welcomes two new Grade 1-winning stallions to its 2018 roster – Greenpointcrusader and Noble Bird. Greenpointcrusader, Bernardini’s winner of the Champagne S. (G1) as a 2-year-old, will stand his first season for $5,000 S&N. Noble Bird, the millionaire multiple graded stakes winner who scored his biggest win in the Stephen Foster H. (G1), will also stand for an introductory fee of $5,000 S&N.

Star Guitar's Fee Raised to $7,500

A strong crop of 2-year-olds in 2017 prompted Evelyn Benoit's Brittlyn Stable to raise the stud fee for homebred Star Guitar to $7,500 for the 2018 breeding season.

The four-time Louisiana Horse of the Year and winner of 22 black-type stakes out of 30 starts has been represented this year by 11 juvenile winners from 21 starters. His top 2-year-olds include stakes winners Testing One Two, a daughter out of Yes Sir (Scat Daddy) who won the Louisiana Jewel Stakes, and Aceguitar, a colt out of Cherub Heart (Dehere) who won the Louisiana Cup Juvenile Stakes and finished second in the Texas Thoroughbred Futurity. Star Guitar also sired Givemeaminit, out of Powerful Nation (Turkoman), who finished third in the grade 1 Hopeful Stakes at Saratoga Race Course.

"Star Guitar is certainly passing on his will to win that he demonstrated with his race record of 24 wins from 30 starts," said Benoit, who has stood Star Guitar at Clear Creek Stud near Folsom, La., since he entered stud in 2013 at $4,000.

That's good to see. I'd love to see Star Guitar successfully carry on Quiet American's bloodline, especially since we lost Real Quiet too soon.
