Unbridled's Song , who initially was scheduled to stand in 2009 for $150,000 stands and nurses, instead will stand for $125,000 stands and nurses. Based at the Taylor family’s Taylor Made Farm near Nicholasville, Ky., Unbridled’s Song is represented by three new grade I winners this year, including champion 2-year-old male contender Midshipman.
The stallion’s success this year has prompted an “unprecedented demand in seasons for Unbridled’s Song compared to recent years,” according to a farm release. “However, given the adjustment in fees of two of the breeds other great stallions, namely A.P. Indyand Distorted Humor , we feel it is in the best interest of our customers to readjust Unbridled’s Song’s 2009 fee to $112,500 live foal payable Nov. 1, or $125,000 stands and nurses. Taylor Made will be honoring this fee schedule for anyone who has already booked a mare to Unbridled’s Song for 2009.”
Following is the fee schedule for the eight stallions standing at Taylor Made, which includes an early payment discount.
