Sea The Stars (Ire) will stand at his highest-ever fee of €250,000 at Gilltown Stud in 2025 after a season in which his 28 stakes winners included the G1 Grand Prix de Paris winner Sosie (Ire) and promising juvenile The Lion In Winter (Ire), who is currently favourite for next year's 2,000 Guineas.
His fellow Aga Khan Studs stallion Siyouni (Fr) headlines the roster at Haras de Bonneval in Normandy where his stud fee for next year will remain unchanged at €200,000.
Zarak (Fr), currently the second-leading sire in Europe with 11.8% stakes winners to runners this year, was represented by his first Classic winner this season in the G1 Poule d'Essai des Poulains victor Metropolitan (Fr). He too has had his fee increased, to €80,000 from €60,000.
Vadeni (Fr) and Erevann (Fr), each of whom covered their first mares in 2024 and were fully booked, will remain at their starting fees of €18,000 and €8,000 respectively.
