Eagle, a Grade 3 winner and veteran Texas sire, will stand the upcoming Southern Hemisphere breeding season in Uruguay for the partnership of Haras Cuatro Cabezas and Haras Palermo, the South American publication Turf Diario reports.
The 11-year-old son of Candy Ride has stood his entire career at Valor Farm in Pilot Point, Texas, where he entered stud for the 2018 breeding season.
From three crops of racing age, Eagle has sired six winners from 13 starters, led by stakes winner and six-figure earner Eagle Express.
During his own on-track career, Eagle won seven of 24 starts for earnings of $754,186. His resume is highlighted by a victory in the Grade 3 Ben Ali Stakes, along with listed scores in the Michael G. Schaefer Memorial Stakes and Tenacious Stakes. He also placed in seven additional graded stakes races, including a runner-up effort in the G1 Stephen Foster Handicap.
A Kentucky homebred by W.S. Farish, Eagle is out of the winning Mineshaft mare Sea Gull. He is a half-brother to multiple Grade 2 winner and freshman sire Catalina Cruiser.
Eagle's stud career will be managed in Uruguay by Pablo Nuñez and Walter Abelenda.
