Prince Sabo, the broodmare sire of grade I winner Stroll  , was euthanized March 29 at Cheveley Park Stud near Newmarket, England, because of the infirmities of old age. He was 29.

Stroll, out of English group-placed Maid for Walking, won four graded stakes, including the 2004 Woodford Reserve Turf Classic Stakes (gr. IT). Stroll, by Pulpit   and a half brother to stakes winner Patrol, stands at stud at Claiborne Farm near Paris, Ky.

A group II winner in England, Prince Sabo (Young Generation—Jubilee Song, by Song) sired 13 stakes winners, including English champion Easy Option. Prince Sabo was pensioned from stallion duty in 2006.
