I have heard he will stand for a fee of $8000.

Does anyone understand their 'Share the Upside' program? The wording on their site is a little confusing.

I'm pretty excited that Ontario is attracting this calibre of stallion.

From the grape vine, I have not looked at the website. But an option was 20k for 2 live foals and receive a lifetime breeding. So would assume 10k LF

No grapevine needed. His Share the Upside fee is $10K

So you pay the $10K the first year, and don't have to pay a stud fee ever again?

I think you have to send two mares to him at $10,000 in the first year in order to have the lifetime breeding rights.

Can anyone think of any good sires by Gulch though?

Do you not think Thunder Gulch is a good sire?

That's one Madelyn! Gulch is certainly a very good broodmare sire.
He also has The Cliff's Edge... not too many good producing sons of Gulch though as opposed to producing daughters. That was just the point I was trying to make.

I can't wait to see him in the flesh. Got to love his female family 8)

My bad! You only need to send one mare at $10,000 for the first two years in order to have a lifetime breeding right.

Court Vision's half brother (a G.2 placed son of City Zip) is selling in book 5 in Keeneland. I wonder what he'll sell for :?:

Is he still going to Park Stud? I can't seem to find information, and he is not listed on their Stallions section of their farm website.

Yes he's definitely at Park Stud. They paraded him at Woodbine in late November. He's been advertised heavily in the Canadian Thoroughbred.

I have observed that Park Stud is a little slow with website updates. They have Best of the Bests, Mr. Sekiguchi, and Victor's Cry there now as well.
