Officials at Gainesway have released the stud fees for four stallions following last weekend's Breeders' Cup.
McKinzie (Street Sense), the sire of Grade I winners 'TDN Rising Star' Chancer McPatrick and Scottish Lassie from his first crop, will stand the 2025 breeding season at a fee of $75,000. The first stallion since Mr. Prospector to account for the winners of the prestigious Champagne Stakes and Frizette Stakes in the same season, McKinzie has also proved successful in the sales arena, his yearlings having fetched as much as $975,000 while his first crop of 2-year-olds realized pricetags as high as $750,000.
Muth (Good Magic) will serve mares at an introductory fee of $35,000 LFSN. Named a 'TDN Rising Star' for a blowout victory at first asking last June, the $2-million 2023 OBS March topper won the GI American Pharoah Stakes in his first start around two turns before finishing runner-up to Fierceness (City of Light) in the GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile. This year's GI Arkansas Derby hero added the Shared Belief Stakes in September and retires with a record of 5-2-0 from nine runs and earnings of $1,589,600.
The stud fee for Classic winner Seize the Grey (Arrogate) has been set at $30,000 LFSN. Having defeated future GI Belmont Stakes winner Dornoch (Good Magic) to win his maiden at second asking at Saratoga last summer, the gray colt came from just off the pace to take out the GII Pat Day Mile Stakes on the Kentucky Derby undercard May 4 and backed up on two weeks' rest to wire the GI Preakness Stakes. He earned the second elite-level victory when leading all the way in the Sept. 21 Pennsylvania Derby.
'TDN Rising Star' Tapit Trice will stand alongside his sire Tapit ($185,000) and will begin his stud career at $20,000 LFSN. Winner of the GIII Lambholm South Tampa Bay Derby and GI Toyota Blue Gass at three, the Gainesway-bred colt was third in the GI Belmont Stakes and GI Travers Stakes. He was a dual graded stakes winner in 2024 and won six of 13 starts for earnings of $1,873,650.
