Go Bears Go (Ire) (Kodi Bear {Ire}), winner of the Group 2 Railway Stakes, has been retired by Kia Joorabchian's AMO Racing to stand in partnership with Reddy and Linda Coffey at Springfield House Stud in 2025.
The third AMO Racing-owned horse to retire to stud this autumn, Go Bears Go will embark on his new career having raced with distinction across four seasons where he amassed almost £400,000 in prize-money.
In addition to his Group 2 triumph in the Railway Stakes, Go Bears Go won twice at Group 3 level. He also achieved a career-high rating of 113 and placed at the highest level as a juvenile.
“Go Bears Go was one of our early flagbearers and has long been held in high regard by AMO Racing. He has given us a number of memorable days, especially in the Railway Stakes and when narrowly touched off at the Breeders Cup,” commented Kia Joorabchian.
“We are delighted to have entered into partnership with Reddy and Linda Coffey and we look forward to supporting Go Bears Go over the coming years. We have every confidence in his ability to make a notable impact at stud,” he added.
Go Bears Go demonstrated precocity, speed, class and durability during his time on the track. He is the highest rated runner produced by his sire, Kodi Bear, whose representatives this season include the leading juveniles Leovanni and Cowardofthecounty. Go Bears Go will stand for a fee of €8,000 in 2025.
Springfield House Stud's Reddy Coffey stated: “We are thrilled to be standing Go Bears Go in partnership with AMO. He's a quality, good-looking horse with the form to match and we believe that he will make notable appeal to the commercial Irish breeder.”
