PRESS RELEASE
OCALA, FL—Ocala Stud has set 2025 stud fees for its roster of eight stallions for the upcoming breeding season, led by Florida’s leading first-crop sire Win Win Win, who will stand for $8,500 S&N. Roadster will stand for $7,500 S&N and Colonel Liam will stand for $6,500. The roster is bolstered further by the addition of Khozan—Florida’s leading general sire each year since 2000—who will stand for $6,000 S&N.
Win Win Win is represented this year by Nooni, the $1.8 million Ocala Breeders’ Sales March sale topper and front-running winner of the Grade 3 Sorrento at Del Mar. A TDN Rising Star campaigned by Zedan Racing Stables and trained by Bob Baffert, Nooni turned heads at the OBS March Sale, breezing a co-record quarter mile in :20.20 at that sale’s under tack preview. In addition to her stakes tally, Nooni finished a close second in the Grade 2 Oak Leaf at Santa Anita. Win Win Win is also the sire of Win N Your In, winner of the $95,000 Sharp Susan and the $200,000 FTBOA Florida Sire Stakes Susan’s Girl at Gulfstream Park. By Hat Trick (Jpn), Win Win Win hails from a deep Live Oak family and is a descendant of the influential Halo sire line.
Roadster, a son of perennial leading sire Quality Road, will have first yearlings in 2025. An impressive winner of the $1 million Santa Anita Derby (G1) in 2019, Roadster defeated stablemate Game Winner—the previous year’s Eclipse Award-winning 2-year-old male champion. He also finished second to Omaha Beach in the Grade 1 Malibu, second in the Grade 2 San Carlos and was runner-up to Grade 1-winner Mucho Gusto in the Grade 3 Affirmed. Roadster is produced from the stakes-winning and stakes-producing Silver Ghost mare Ghost Dancing and is a half-brother to Grade 1 winner and Keeneland track-record setter Ascend.
Colonel Liam is a back-to-back winner of the $1 million Pegasus Turf Invitational (G1) at Gulfstream Park. He also annexed the $1 million Turf Classic (G1) at Churchill Downs, recording a 102 Beyer Speed Figure. Colonel Liam was a $1.2 million graduate of the OBS Spring Sale, where he was purchased by Jacob West on behalf of Robert and Lawana Low after breezing a quarter mile in an eye-catching :20.80. A son of Grade 1 Breeders’ Cup Dirt Mile-winner Liam’s Map, a half-brother to leading sire Not This Time, Colonel Liam is out of the Bernardini mare Amazement and hails from the family of multiple Grade 1-winner Wonder Again, his second dam. Colonel Liam will have first yearlings in 2025.
Khozan, the leading Florida Sire again in 2024 with progeny earnings approaching $5 million, is a son of Distorted Humor out of Delta Princess, by A.P. Indy. A half-brother to Grade 1-winners Royal Delta, Crown Queen and Delta Prince, Khozan made just two career starts. He broke his maiden in sensational fashion in his Gulfstream Park debut, earning a 102 Beyer before thrashing allowance foes by 12 ¾ lengths in his second start at one mile. Khozan is represented on the racetrack this year by R Harper Rose ($377,230), winner of the Grade 3 Forward Gal and second in the $102,000 Any Limit; Lure Him In ($521,233), winner of the $95,000 Sunshine Classic at Gulfstream Park; and Graded stakes-placed Hot Peppers ($424,950), runner-up in the Grade 3 Las Flores at Santa Anita.
