Airdrie Stud has announced the stud fees for their 2024 stallion roster.
Airdrie's Bret Jones commented on the farm's roster:
“We couldn't be looking more forward to the 2024 season as we continue to build momentum in our stallion barn. We believe we have two very special stallions in Girvin and Upstart headlining our roster this year. Both have built their success from the ground up, and their ability to so dramatically improve their mares has earned the faith of the best breeders in the industry. They are both poised to continue to climb the ladder as leading young stallions.
“Cairo Prince has once again been the leading sire of his stallion crop and a top 25 general and juvenile sire throughout the year. He has long cemented his position as a hugely popular value stallion for both the sales ring and the racetrack.
“With his first crop just 3-year-olds, Collected has already sired three individual Grade 2 stakes winners and six stakes winners in all. That is an incredibly strong resume for a young stallion in his price range and we believe his arrow will continue to point up in the year ahead.
“And, we also believe Complexity has every chance to be next season's leading freshman sire. He was an immensely talented runner and his first-crop yearlings generated the type of buzz at the sales that foreshadows major success on the racetrack.
“When combined with our new introductions of the last two years in Beau Liam, Happy Saver and Highly Motivated and the future retirement of Kentucky Derby winner Mage at the end of his racing career, these are very exciting times for our Airdrie Stud team. As always, we will be supporting our stallions with the full force of our broodmare band and look forward to working with our incredibly loyal breeders to whom we owe our success.”
