Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted 3 hours ago Journalists Share Posted 3 hours ago Early Voting (Gun Runner), the 2022 GI Preakness Stakes winner who has made a remarkable recovery from issues which imperiled his breeding career, has achieved a high conception rate and his first-crop progeny were so well-received at last fall's breeding stock sales that the Early Voting Consortium has donated $30,000 to the Mont Liggins Trust. After getting 120 mares in foal from his first book at Coolmore Stud in 2023, Early Voting was later found to be suffering from anejaculatory syndrome, an inability to ejaculate. The stallion was treated by New Zealander Dr. Paddy O'Casaigh, renowned for having helped salvage the breeding careers of numerous stallions, including Nureyev and El Gran Senor. According to a release, the Early Voting Consortium intends to continue making a series of grants each year. Early Voting, who now stands at Taylor Made and will stand the 2025 season at $12,500, same as last season. “This stallion is leaving his stamp on his progeny,” said Taylor Made President Ben Taylor. “They are athletic, muscular and already look like making early racing propositions. The excellent response and his competitive service fee make for an appealing breeding opportunity that will see him attract many mares for the 2025 breeding season.” O'Casaigh said that the EV Consortium is also exploring the possibility of shuttling the stallion to the Southern Hemisphere in 2025/2026.
