Keane Stud near Amenia, N.Y. has announced the fees for its entire 2017 stallion roster, which again will be headed up by Frost Giant , the state's leading sire of 2-year-olds.
Frost Giant's fee of $5,000 was previously announced in November. The son of Giant's Causeway counts stakes-placed Bobby On Fleek among his 16 juvenile winners.
Normandy Invasion (Tapit -Boston Lady, by Boston Harbor) will command an advertised fee of $4,000 in 2017, down from the $5,000 he stood for during his first season at stud. The 6-year-old horse was multiple graded-stakes placed, including a runner-up finish in the 2013 Wood Memorial (gr. I), and also finished fourth in the Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands (gr. I).
Al Khali (Medaglia d'Oro -Maya, by Capote) will remain at $2,500 as will grade I winner Dublin (Afleet Alex -Classy Mirage, by Storm Bird).
