California Chrome Full Sibling Enters Stud in California

Faversham (Lucky Pulpit–Love the Chase, by Not For Love), a two-time winner and full-brother to two-time Horse of the Year California Chrome, has been retired from racing to stand at Daehling Ranch in Northern California. His 2021 fee is $2,000, live foal guarantee. Lifetime breeding rights are available for $4,500.

The 5-year-old was campaigned by his co-breeders, Perry and Denise Martin of Martin Racing, who also co-bred and raced California Chrome.

After standing his first three seasons in Kentucky, with two additional Southern Hemisphere stints in Chile, California Chrome was purchased privately in late 2019 by Japan-based connections, and stood at Arrow Stud in that country this year.

“Faversham overcame several obstacles, including a torn tendon, to win races in California and Kentucky for us,” Perry Martin said. “He always tried his best and managed to carve his own identity from the immense shadow cast by his big brother, who was the rarest of all Thoroughbreds–the horse of a lifetime.”

“We are thrilled to bring him home to California, where the legendary story of California Chrome started, and to offer his proven bloodlines at an affordable price for breeders on a budget.”

Mill Ridge Farm Sets 2021 Stud Fee for Oscar Performance

Mill Ridge Farm has set the 2021 stud fee for world record turf miler Oscar Performance (Kitten’s Joy) at $15,000, LFSN. Bred and raced by Jerry and John Amerman, he won the GI Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf, captured Grade I stakes at 2, 3, and 4, and broke a 20-year track record at Belmont Park at a mile in 1:31.23, all with no Lasix.

“We celebrate his third year, for we have seen so many of his foals and they are genuine quality,” said Headley Bell. “He has every opportunity to buck the trend and have more mares in his third year than he had in his first two of 118 and 116. At a stud fee of $15,000 live foal, he is value, for you have these quality foals in the pipeline.”

Cowboy Culture To Stand At Whitney Farms In Indiana

Quality Road's graded stakes-winning son Cowboy Culture enters stud in 2021 at Whitney Farms in Monrovia, Ind.

The 16.1- hand Cowboy Culture represents an outstanding opportunity for the Indiana breeder looking for a stellar racehorse by America's leading sire. His 2021 introductory fee of $2,500 live foal is enhanced with an option to breed additional mares for $1,500 each.

Best of all, participating breeders will receive at no cost a guaranteed lifetime breeding right to Cowboy Culture after three contracts have been fulfilled.

As a fully-equipped breeding and layup facility only 40 miles east of Indiana Grand we offer our clients an on-site veterinary clinic staffed by the best professionals. Proper animal husbandry is the foundation of our long involvement with horses and we invite horsemen to visit us at any time, without appointment.”

Central Banker Leads McMahon Of Saratoga’s 2021 Stallion Roster

McMahon of Saratoga Thoroughbreds in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., revealed the advertised fees for its 2021 stallion roster, led by fast-rising sire Central Banker.

“Anne and I purchased our Fitch Road farm 50 years ago this March,” said farm owner Joe McMahon. “We feel fortunate that we have been well supported by the New York breeding community all of those years. Recent months have been very hard for everyone involved in racing and breeding, and we are reducing the fees for our stallions for the 2021 breeding season to reflect the challenges brought on by 2020.”

Central Banker, a Grade 2-winning son of Speightstown, will stand the upcoming season for an advertised fee of $6,000. His runners are led by multiple stakes winner and graded stakes-placed Bankit, whose earnings are now in excess of $700,000, and multiple stakes winner Newly Minted.

Central Banker covered 114 mares in 2020, and he currently sits second on New York's general sire list by progeny earnings this season, with $1,878,786.

Solomini, a Grade 1-placed son of Curlin, will stand for $5,000. He stood his first season in 2020, and he covered 123 mares, the most of any New York stallion.

Rounding out the roster is Redesdale, a son of Speightstown whose first foals are weanlings of 2020. He'll stand for $3,000 in 2021 after covering 66 mares in 2020, and 81 mares in his inaugural season a year earlier.

“We feel confident that the New York breeding program remains the strongest of its kind in the world, and our goal is to offer the best valued and most attractive stallions outside of Kentucky,” McMahon said. “We hope these reduced fees help New York breeders through this difficult time, and we look forward to working with our breeders in the coming months.”

Following are the advertised 2021 fees for the McMahon of Saratoga stallion roster:

Central Banker – $6,000
Redesdale – $3,000
Solomini – $5,000
