Taylor Made Stallions announces 2027 stallion roster and fees

 

Taylor Made Stallions has set its 2027 stallion roster and fees for the upcoming breeding season headed by the farm’s flagship stallion Not This Time who will stand for $300,000 S&N.

The sire of 15 Grade 1 winners from seven crops to race, 42 graded stakes winners, and 79 black-type winners, Not This Time is having another sensational year in 2026. He is the No. 1-ranked General Sire with progeny earnings this season of more than $28 million, No. 1 in black-type winners (23) and in graded stakes winners (14), and No. 2 in Grade 1 winners (5).

Heading into this year’s Breeders’ Cup, Not This Time is represented by a formidable roster of top-tier talent led by Dubai World Cup (G1) and Stephen Foster Stakes (G1) winner Magnitude, a leading contender for the $7 million Breeders’ Cup Classic (G1). Joining Magnitude in Not This Time’s possible Breeders’ Cup lineup are Rhetorical, a top contender for the Breeders’ Cup Mile (G1) following wins in the Turf Mile (G1) at Keeneland and the Turf Classic (G1) at Churchill Downs; In Our Time, victorious in the Ladies Turf Sprint Stakes (G1) at Kentucky Downs and a contender for the Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint (G1); and Cy Fair, a contender in this year’s Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint (G1) after capping her 2025 season as an Eclipse Award finalist following a victory in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint (G1).

Not This Time’s dominant year on the racetrack is further highlighted by additional Grade 1 winners on the dirt Bodacious Bay, winner of the Cotillion Stakes (G1) at PARX, and Claret Beret, who won the Apple Blossom Handicap (G1) at Oaklawn Park over reigning Champion 3-Year-Old Filly Nitrogen.

Following the trajectory of Not This Time’s accomplished runners on the racetrack has been the demand for his progeny in the auction ring. Not This Time’s yearlings continue to light up the board again this year. Among them, a $3 million colt at Fasig-Tipton’s Saratoga Select Sale purchased by Winchell Thoroughbreds/White Birch Farm/M.V. Magnier/Resolute Bloodstock. At the Keeneland September Sale, Not This Time’s yearlings fetched up to $2.1 million, $2 million, $2 million, $1.9 million, etc.

Early Voting, winner of the 2022 Preakness Stakes (G1) and a son of leading stallion and Horse of the Year Gun Runner, will stand the 2027 breeding season for $50,000 S&N. His first-crop horses have hit the ground running, as evidenced by four TDN Rising Stars from his first seven runners, and are led by undefeated Miss Monica, a leading contender for the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies (G1). A dominating 6 ¼-length winner of the Del Mar Debutante Stakes (G1), Miss Monica, an $850,000 graduate of the OBS Spring Sale, earned TDN Rising Star status in her career bow, winning a Del Mar maiden special weight by 5 ¾ lengths.

Early Voting’s first-crop horses caught the eye at this year’s 2-year-olds in training sales. In addition to Miss Monica, he also saw juveniles sell for $510,000, $510,000, $475,000, $450,000, etc., and he is the co-leading First-Crop Sire by graded stakes winners and Grade 1 winners. Last year, Early Voting had first yearlings up to $1 million and he ranked third by yearling average behind only Flightline and Life Is Good.

Instilled Regard, a royally bred Grade 1 winner by Champion Sire Arch, will stand for $12,500 S&N. Instilled Regard is the sire of multiple graded stakes winner Minaret Station, winner of the Joe Hirsch Turf Classic (G1) in his most recent outing and a leading Breeders’ Cup Turf (G1) contender.

Arthur’s Ride, winner of the 2024 Whitney S. (G1) with a 110 Beyer, and a son of Tapit from a family of champions, will stand for $10,000 S&N.

Arkansas Derby (G1) winner Angel of Empire, who will have first yearlings in 2027, will stand for $5,000 S&N. Dr. Schivel, a Grade 1 winner at two and three by Violence, will stand for $5,000 S&N. Dr. Schivel was Represented by first yearlings up to $170,000, and he will see his first 2-year-olds hit the track in 2027.
