Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted October 16, 2019 Journalists Share Posted October 16, 2019 Horse of the Year Gun Runner (Candy Ride {Arg}) headlines Three Chimneys Farm’s 2020 roster at a $70,000 fee, the farm announced Wednesday. It is his second year at stud and his fee remains unchanged from last term. “I have been across the state to see most of the Gun Runner foals, and it’s an exceptional first crop,” said Three Chimneys Stallion Director Tom Hamm. “They’re good sized, well-balanced, athletic and have a lot of class. We couldn’t be more excited about his prospects. Most breeders seem to be telling me it’s their best foal on the farm, or it’s the best foal a mare has thrown yet, that sort of positive feedback.” The 2020 stud fee for MGISW Palace Malice (Curlin) will be announced following the Breeders’ Cup, where he will be represented by a pair of runners from his first crop. He stood for $15,000 in 2019. Fellow freshman sire Fast Anna (Medaglia d’Oro) had his fee raised from $7,500 to $10,000. Sky Mesa (Pulpit), whose daughter Perfect Alibi won the GI Spinaway S., remains at $15,000 for 2020. Sharp Azteca (Freud)’s fee also remains unchanged at $10,000 for his second year at stud. The remaining three stallions on the Three Chimneys roster had their fees decreased for next season with Will Take Charge (Unbridled’s Song) going from $30,000 to $15,000; Strong Mandate (Tiznow) decreased from $10,000 to $5,000; and Funtastic (More Than Ready) lowered from $7,500 to $5,000.
