I believe hes returning to Shadwell in KY bc i spoke with someone there and he said he is coming back. He has fertility problem? and good lord, he is 19 already?!
Somehow I missed this earlier this week. Sid Fernando Tweet (on Oct. 17): "It's official. @perfectsoulire, a son of Sadler's Wells, will stand in Canada in 2012 at Norse Ridge Farm."

I'm just waiting and dreading to hear that Aragorn is going somewhere. He hasn't been doing that swell and he only got 28 mares this year.
Northview announced its 2012 stud fees on Friday, Smarty Jones drops to 7.5k, interesting considering he count a decent count this year at 10k.
Maryland:
Bullsbay - $5,000
Dance With Ravens - $2,500
Deputy Storm - $3,500
Great Notion - $2,500
Lion Hearted - $3,000
Not For Love - $20,000
Street Magician - $3,000
Pennsylvania:
E Dubai - $10,000
Fairbanks - $6,500
Jump Start - $10,000
Love Of Money - $2,500
Medallist - $3,500
Silver Train - $7,000
Smarty Jones - $7,500
Not for Love is still the best value of any stud in the country.
He's a good stallion, but he's no value at $20,000. He has 66 stakes winners, none of which are grade 1, and 13 which are grade 2 or 3 winners. He's been a solid producer of good hard knocking race horses that have made their owners money and raced well in Mid Atlantic area. Most of his stakes winners have been in the state bred, Maryland races, West Virginia, PA, NJ and NY. Great horse for a breed to race, but no value at $20,000.

Suddenly there's money, honey. ;-) Did you see the thread I posted about the 50% increase in breeders' awards?
Some KY farms are trying to get in on the ground floor.

This I LOVE!
Nobody said giving Kirstie Alley a colonic would be easy.
We saw him at Signature Stallions in Ocala last year. He is one handsome hunk of horse flesh. We said to the Stallion Manager they were so lucky to have him, and he said, "We love every day he's here but based on his popularity he may move to the Blue Grass in due course." "Due course" is a year and a half later.

There was an advertisement on thoroughbredtimes for Perfect Soul and Norse Ridge in 2012.

My question is: why did Darby Dan leave his advertised stud fee at $15K (the highest of all Darby Dan Stallions?)
I know Fipke wanted to make him the next El Prado or N.A.'s Galileo, but what went wrong here? PS's progeny seems to like turf and poly and can close at even sprint distances!
