Led again by champion sire Pivotal (GB) (Polar Falcon), Cheveley Park announced their 2021 stallion roster on Monday. Sire of two Group 1 winners among his quintet of black-type winners this term, the 27-year-old Pivotal will again stand for a private fee in 2021. As a broodmare sire, he is responsible for 14 black-type winners, four at the Group 1 level, just this year. Dutch Art (GB) (Medicean {GB}) will also again be at a private fee for 2021.
Studs around the world are reducing fees due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and Cheveley Park is no exception. The Newmarket stud’s MG1SW Ulysses (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), who has his first runners next year, will stand at a lowered price of £10,000. Twilight Son (GB) (Kyllachy {GB}), ranked among the top 10 European first-crop sires, is reduced to £5,000 and Mayson (GB) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}), sire of this season’s G1 July Cup winner Oxted, will stand for £4,000. Unfortunately (Ire) (Society Rock {Ire}), who stands at Springfield House Stud in Ireland for a Cheveley Park and Springfield House partnership, is priced at is €4,500.
“In what are undoubtedly unprecedented times, and in light of recent sales returns, we feel a significant reduction in all our stallions fees is fair and necessary, in order to help valued clients and breeders alike during this financially turbulent period,” said Cheveley Park’s managing director Chris Richardson. “The roster offers outstanding value and quality.”
