WinStar Farm has set 2025 stud fees for its stallion roster, headed once again by Constitution who will
stand for $110,000 S&N, and Life is Good who will stand for $75,000 S&N. The roster will be fortified
further by new additions Cogburn, who will be making his next start in the Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint
(G1) with a stud fee to be announced after the race; Timberlake, who will stand for $20,000 S&N; and
Heartland, who will stand for $10,000 S&N.
“We are excited for the 2025 breeding season and the strong stallion roster we are presenting to
breeders,” said Elliott Walden, president, CEO, and racing manager for WinStar Farm. “Constitution has
taken another step forward in 2024 and solidified himself as an elite sire both on the racetrack and in
the sales ring. It’s encouraging to see his sons having success so early in his career. Life is Good and
Nashville came back to strong demand in their second crops this past season and both have a great
foundation for future success that commercial breeders can have confidence in. We’re excited to add
three new sires to our roster—all of which have unique and elite talent. Cogburn, Timberlake, and
Heartland will be well supported by the farm. Our team looks forward to working with breeders this
year to create value and help achieve our collective goals.”
Constitution is the No. 5 General Sire with progeny earnings this season of $12,577,533, and he is the
No. 3 leading sire of 3-year-olds this year by earnings, behind only Justify and Into Mischief. A Top 10
yearling sire in 2023 and 2024, Constitution has been represented by yearlings this year of $1.2 million,
$1.1 million, $1 million, $975,000 etc. His leading runners in 2024 include Classic-placed Mindframe,
second in the Belmont S. (G1) and Haskell S. (G1); Catching Freedom, third in the Preakness S. (G1) and
winner of the Louisiana Derby (G2) and Smarty Jones S.; Neat, winner of the National Museum of Racing
Hall of Fame S. (G2), the Manila S. (G3), and the Transylvania S. (G3); Pin Up Betty, winner of the Regret
S. (G3); and Steal Sunshine, victorious in the Gulfstream Park Mile (G2).
Life Is Good, a four-time Grade 1 winner in his exceptional racing career, enters his third season at stud
in 2025. Into Mischief’s fastest son, Life Is Good earned nine triple-digit Beyers in his career: 112, 110,
109, 107, 107, 106, 105, 105, and 101. In 2022, he was a three-time Grade 1 winner. He was an
effortless winner of the Woodward S. (G1), an uncontested winner of the Whitney S. (G1), and a
dominant winner of the Pegasus World Cup (G1) over Horse of the Year Knicks Go. He also won the $1
million Breeders’ Cup Dirt Mile (G1) by 5 ¾ lengths, the largest margin of victory at the 2021 Breeders’
Cup. Life Is Good was bred to 192 mares in his first season at stud, and he was bred to 186 mares in
2024. His first weanlings sell this year.
Cogburn, a son of Not This Time, was an electrifying winner of the $500,000 Jaipur S. (G1) during the
Belmont Racing Festival at Saratoga over the summer where he set a North American record for 5 ½
furlong on turf. After an opening quarter in a sizzling :21.33, and a half mile split in :43.07, Cogburn flew
home in an eye-popping final time of :59.80, easily eclipsing the previous North American record of
1:00.21 set in 2019. Following the Jaipur, Cogburn proved an authoritative winner of the $2 million Turf
Sprint S. (G2) at Kentucky Downs where he completed six furlongs on turf in 1:07.68, just missing
another course record. Heading into the Breeders’ Cup, Cogburn is a winner in nine of 15 lifetime starts
and he has amassed earnings of $2,392,630.
Timberlake, winner of the stallion-making Champagne S. (G1), is a millionaire son of Into Mischief. He
joins Practical Joke as the only other son of Into Mischief to win a Grade 1 as a 2-year-old. In completing
the one-mile Champagne in 1:35.90 over the sloppy (sealed) track, and earning a 93 Beyer, Timberlake
left in his wake that day the likes of Fierceness, the subsequent 2-Year-Old Champion Male. Making his
seasonal debut at three, Timberlake won the $1,250,000 Rebel S. (G2) at Oaklawn Park. In addition to
his stakes wins, Timberlake finished a close second in the Hopeful S. (G1) at two and was third in the
Haskell S. (G1) this year. All told, Timberlake won or placed in 5-of-9 career starts, including three Grade
1s, for trainer Brad Cox while banking $1,303,100.
Heartland is a son of Justify, racing’s 13 th Triple Crown winner, and a half-brother to Champion 2-Year-
Old Classic Empire. Heartland flashed his brilliance in a head-turning debut at Del Mar. In blitzing his
foes in a 5 ½-furlong maiden special weight, Heartland overcame a troubled start to win going away by
two lengths for trainer Bob Baffert. His final time of 1:03.20 was the fastest time of any 2-year-old at the
distance at Del Mar or Saratoga in 2023. The head-turning score earned Heartland a 90 Beyer Speed
Figure and a TDN Rising Star designation.
