California Chrome to Stand for $35,000 in 2019

Taylor Made Stallions has set its 2019 stallion roster and fees, led by two-time Horse of the Year California Chrome , who will stand the upcoming breeding season for $35,000.

California Chrome, a seven-time grade/group 1 winner of $14,752,650, scored his biggest victories in the Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands (G1) and Preakness Stakes (G1) as a 3-year-old, and in the Dubai World Cup Sponsored by Emirates Airline (G1) and $1 Million TVG Pacific Classic Stakes (G1) as a 5-year-old. The son of Lucky Pulpit won 14 stakes, including 10 graded/group stakes, from 27 starts. His first in-foal mares sold up to $250,000 last year at the Keeneland November Breeding Stock Sale, and he has his first weanlings at auction this year.

Not This Time  also has his first weanlings at auction this year and was represented by a $100,000 colt at The Saratoga Fall Sale, Fasig-Tipton's Oct. 15 sale of weanlings and broodmares. The brilliant son of Giant's Causeway  was a runaway winner of the Iroquois Stakes (G3) and runner-up in the Sentient Jet Breeders' Cup Juvenile (G1). He is out of the Trippi mare Miss Macy Sue, who is a graded stakes winner and placed in the Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Sprint. Not This Time is a half brother to Las Vegas Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile (G1) winner Liam's Map  (by Unbridled's Song). His fee remains unchanged at $15,000.

Mshawish  and Midnight Storm  will both stand for $10,000. Mshawish is top sire Medaglia d'Oro 's only grade 1 winner on both dirt and turf, and is his fastest dirt miler. He won five grade/group stakes, including back-to-back wins on dirt in the Donn Handicap (G1) and Hal's Hope Stakes (G3). He also has first weanlings this year.

Midnight Storm is a brilliantly fast grade 1 winner from North America's hottest sire line. The son of Pioneerof the Nile  is a seven-time graded stakes winner with victories in the Shoemaker Mile Stakes (G1T) on turf and the San Pasqual Stakes (G2) on dirt en route to career earnings of $1,783,110. He also placed in the Breeders' Cup Mile (G1T). Midnight Storm stood his initial season at stud this year, and his first foals will arrive in 2019.

Graydar , a top-10 second-crop sire, rounds out the roster at a fee of $7,500. The son of Unbridled's Song earned grade 1 status in the Donn Handicap and is the sire of graded stakes-winning 3-year-old colt Lombo, winner of the Robert B. Lewis Stakes (G3); 2-year-old stakes winner The Gray Dehere; and stakes-placed winners Aggregator, Arazi Like Move, and Palladium.
