Graydar Oxbow
GRAYDAR OXBOW We have enjoyed tremendous success in standing/managing stallions over the last 20 years. KRIS S. SAINT BALLADO UNBRIDLED’S SONG 2 Dear Breeder, Taylor Made is a family owned and operated farm built on honesty, long-lasting relationships and horsemanship. Taylor Made Stallions’ mode of operation has always been – and remains – to focus on standing quality stallions that provide breeders great opportunities, whether they are breeding to race or sell. 2013 was a bounce-back year for commercial breeders, including a GSVRIVXYVRMRK/IIRIPERH7ITXIQFIVWEPIXLEXWE[KEMRWEGVSWWXLIFSEVHLMKLPMKLXIHF]WIZIR½KYVI]IEVPMRKWERHFSEWXMRK the third highest average of all time.

Last year also marked a bittersweet landmark for one of the great sires of our time. While reaching 17 Grade 1 winners over his historic career in 2013, Unbridled’s Song passed away at the age of 20. Every person at Taylor Made has been touched by this amazing animal over the years. He leaves a lasting legacy that will never be forgotten across the industry he served so well. And yet there is much to look forward to in 2014. The legacy continues with our newest stallion, Graydar, the Grade 1-winning son of Unbridled’s Song. One of the most stunning physicals to come to the breeding shed in years, Graydar had a brilliant VEGIGEVIIVMRGPYHMRKEGSQQERHMRKZMGXSV]MRXLI(SRR,ERHMGET + EX+YPJWXVIEQ4EVO;IEVIGSR½HIRXLI[MPPFI a favorite among breeders as Taylor Made Stallions adds another chapter to its storied tradition.
