Multiple Grade 3 winner Oscar Nominated will relocate to BG Thoroughbred Farm in Hemet, Calif., ahead of the 2023 breeding season.
The 9-year-old son of Kitten's Joy previously stood at Lovacres Ranch in Warner Springs, Calif. His first foals arrived earlier this year.
Oscar Nominated is out of the Theatrical mare Devine Actress. He was bred by Mrs. Jerry Amerman and is a full brother to Oscar Performance, whose Grade 1 wins include the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf.
On the track, Oscar Nominated had six wins in 30 starts and earnings of $1,502,639. His biggest wins include the Grade 3 Spiral Stakes at Turfway Park, the G3 Kentucky Downs Turf Cup at Kentucky Downs and the G3 W.L. McKnight Stakes at Gulfstream Park. He also placed in the G1 Pattison Canadian International Stakes at Woodbine, and he ran in the 2016 Kentucky Derby.
Oscar Nominated will stand for a private fee, with special considerations to California breeders.
“I would like to let small California breeders know that I know times are tough, and everything is up including stud fees,” said owner Frederick Larsen. “My early holiday gift, and to ease the burden on saving for a stud fee, is to offer a complimentary breeding to Oscar Nominated, an outstanding stallion who will be just as good if not better than his brother. To claim this offer breeders will need to contact BG Thoroughbred Farm and book their mares by Dec. 31. Limit two mares per breeder. I really want to give the small breeder the opportunity to breed to an amazing stallion that most feel they can not afford to.”
