'This Guy Wants More Action': Once-Subfertile Preakness Winner Early Voting Offered For Free Foal-Share Matings In June
'This Guy Wants More Action': Once-Subfertile Preakness Winner Early Voting Offered For Free Foal-Share Matings In June originally appeared on Paulick Report. Dr. Padraig (Paddy) O'Casaigh, stallion expert and manager of the Early Voting Consortium, announced today that June was "free foal share month" for Preakness Stakes winner Early Voting, a son of leading sire Gun Runner. O'Casaigh said that in his 40 years of international stallion reproduction work, he has never seen a more fertile horse. "Man, I have seen a few of these guys over the years, but nothing as Fertile as Early Voting," he said. Early Voting had already got 90 percent of his mares in foal by the end of May, why waste June?" O'Casaigh said the connections of Early Voting have agreed to breed mares for free on a foal share basis, as long as they are pedigree qualified. Early Voting stands at Taylor Made Stallions in Nicholasville, Ky.

O'Casaigh leaves for his native home, New Zealand, on June 10 to secure a Southern Hemisphere career for his classic-winning stallion. Recognized as one of the most respected equine veterinarians internationally, O'Casaigh is confident that the current fertile performance of Early Voting will be attractive to Southern Hemisphere breeders, particularly as he will be the first stallion in that part of the world representing the Gun Runner/Tiznow/ Silken Cat/Speightstown bloodlines . "With changing surfaces, recognition of his champion mare line on turf, and the top prices his progeny are getting is rapidly growing," O'Casaigh said. "This lovely stallion will be all the rage Down Under. With his pedigree, performance and prolific fertility, the consortium is nearly as excited as he is at 7 a.m. every morning." This story was originally reported by Paulick Report on Jun 11, 2025, where it first appeared.
