Led By Flameaway And Dialed In At $15,000, Darby Dan Releases 2025 Stallion Fees

[Wandering Eyes]

Darby Dan Farm has set their 2025 stud fees for its roster of 13 stallions that will stand the upcoming breeding season, led by Flameaway and Dialed In, who will both stand for $15,000 LFSN, according to a press release from the farm on Thursday morning.

The roster also features a trio of newcomers in Blazing Sevens, who will stand for $12,500 LFSN, as well as Gufo and Shirl's Speight who will both stand their first seasons at stud for $5,000 LFSN.

Flameaway, a multiple graded stakes-winning son of Scat Daddy, was a leading first-crop sire of 2023 and is the sixth-ranked second-crop sire this year. Among Flameaway's nine black-type horses this year are 2-year-old filly Ando Soltera (Chi), a Group 1 winner in her native Chile and 2-year-old filly Dreamaway, winner of the Colleen Stakes at Monmouth Park and third in the Speakeasy Stakes at Santa Anita.

Dialed In, champion freshman sire of 2016 and a perennial leading sire of his crop ever since, is represented by 11 stakes horses in 2024. The sire's leading earner this year is Defunded, who won the 2023 edition of the Hollywood GI Gold Cup and GII Californian Stakes, and has amassed earnings of more than $2.2 million in a stellar racing career.

Blazing Sevens, winner of the GI Champagne Stakes at two and the runner-up in the GI Preakness Stakes, is a son of stallion Good Magic. Blazing Sevens is produced from the winning Warrior's Reward mare Trophy Girl.

Gufo, a Grade I winner at three, four, and five, and a son of Declaration of War, has relocated to Darby Dan Farm from Ballycroy Bloodstock in Ontario. The now-7-year-old will welcome his first foals in 2025. Gufo won or placed in 12 graded stakes, including back-to-back renewals of the GI Sword Dancer Stakes starting in 2021, and the GI Belmont Derby Invitational Stakes in 2020.

The globetrotter registered the biggest win of his career in the 2022 GI Maker's Mark Mile at Keeneland, and in his career the Charles Fipke homebred hit the board in 10 of 25 appearances and banked $1,497,245.
