Among the ten stallions
currently standing at the Hancock family's historic farm in Paris, KY, is
international supersire War Front. Currently the world's leading sire of
two-year-olds, War Front will stand for $250,000 in 2017, up from $200,000 this
year.
"War Front's progeny continue to dominate worldwide at the highest levels, both
on the racetrack and in the sale rings," said Claiborne Farm representative
Bernie Sams. "From a breeder's perspective, he offers the chance to hit the
jackpot. Whether it's a Grade 1 winner at Ascot, a Breeders' Cup
champion, or a seven-figure sale topper here in the States, anything is
possible."
Two other Claiborne stallions who will see a slight rise in stud fees next year are Algorithms and Flatter. Algorithms, the undefeated Graded Stakes-winning son of Bernardini, will stand for $7,500 in 2017, up from $5,000. His 2nd-crop yearlings were well received at the recent Keeneland September Sale, with three yearlings bringing over $200,000, well above his stud fee. Among Algorithms three stakes horses this year is talented juvenile Recruiting Ready, runner-up in the Bashford Manor (Gr.3) and placed in the Iroquois Stakes (Gr.3).
Flatter, the proven son of A.P. Indy will stand for $35,000 in 2017, up from $30,000. This year, Flatter is among North America's leading sires with 6 Graded Stakes Horses. Only Tapit, War Front, and Bernardini have more. Flatter is the sire of five graded stakes winners in 2016, including Upstart, Kobe's Back, Ami's Flatter, and Grade 1 winners Paola Queen and Taris.
