Revved Up Retired To River Oaks Farms In Oklahoma

Revved Up, a multiple graded stakes-placed son of Candy Ride, has been retired to stand his first season at stud at Lori and Francisco Bravo's River Oaks Farms in Sulphur, Okla. He will stand for a fee of $2,000 as property of the Revved Up Partnership.

Bred by the renowned Phipps Stable, Revved Up is by one of North America's top stallions and sire of sires in Candy Ride and out of Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies winner and champion Storm Flag Flying. A five-time winner with earnings of more than $370,000, Revved Up finished second in the Grade 3 Arlington Handicap and third in the G3 River City Handicap.

Revved Up ran for the Phipps Stable and trainer Shug McGaughey for much of his career, and then was sold for $350,000 at the Fasig-Tipton Kentucky July Horses of Racing Age in 2018 and finished his racing in the barn of trainer Mark Casse.

“We are very excited about having him,” said Francisco Bravo. “He's a really well-bred horse. Candy Ride is a tremendous stallion and so are many of his sons, and the race record and pedigree of Storm Flag Flying speaks for itself. Revved Up had most of his success going long on the turf, but when you look at his bloodlines he should be a versatile stallion and we think he's going to generate a lot of interest among Oklahoma breeders.”

River Oaks also stands Atreides, Caleb's Posse, Excaper and Wilburn.

Prime Attraction To Stand At Horsepower Racing Stable In Ontario

Prime Attraction, a Grade 3-winning son of the highly-regarded sire Unbridled's Song, will stand his inaugural season at stud at Horsepower Racing Stable, near Shelburne, Ontario.

The 8-year-old will stand as a registered Ontario sire for an advertised fee of $2,500 Canadian.

Prime Attraction had a long and stellar racing career, highlighted by a win in the Grade 3 Native Diver Stakes at Del Mar. He also placed four times in Grade 2 races, and he finished third in the G1 Pacific Classic.

He made 23 career starts, earning $557,795, and he finished his career by competing in 17 consecutive stakes races, 16 of which were graded.

Unbridled's Song was North America's leading general sire of 2017. Among his many notable offspring, Unbridled's Song sired Grade 1 winners and prominent stallions Arrogate, Midshipman and Liam's Map. His progeny won 730 races and nearly $90 million.

Prime Attraction's first dam, Strawberry Sense, is a half-sister to champion Vindication, Grade 3 winner Scipion, and Grade 2-placed Blackberry Road. Strawberry Sense produced Grade 1-placed stakes winner Kathy's Song and Express Route, who sold to Godolphin for $975,000.

“Prime Attraction is big, attractive, and well-bred,” said Tim Orlando of Silver Fox Stallions. “He had a stellar career. He has no inbreeding in his first five generations and is free of Northern Dancer. He's an excellent option for Ontario breeders, and at $2,500, he represents outstanding value for money. He is available for inspection by appointment. We are thrilled to have the opportunity to stand such a remarkable horse in Ontario.”
