Taylor Made Farm announced Unbridled's Song will stand in 2009 for the same $150,000 fee that he stood for in 2008. This year, Unbridled’s Song is represented by 14 stakes winners, including grade I winners First Defence, Thorn Song, and probable 2-year-old champion male Midshipman, winner of the Bessemer Trust Breeders’ Cup Juvenile (gr.
