Coolmore America has set the 2027 introductory fees for its two newest Ashford Stud additions, with Dubai World Cup (G1) hero Magnitude standing at $70,000 and undefeated dual grade 2 winner Paladin at $20,000.
A multiple grade 1-winning son of Not This Time , Magnitude retires as a dominant global force highlighted by spectacular victories in the $12 million Dubai World Cup and Stephen Foster Stakes (G1).
Paladin, a $1.9 million yearling at Fasig-Tipton's The Saratoga Sale, is by Gun Runner and brings an unblemished record to the roster following his wins in the 2025 Remsen Stakes (G2) and Feb. 14 Risen Star Stakes (G2).
"To have Magnitude defeat both last year's and this year's Breeders' Cup Classic winners—Forever Young and Sovereignty—proves what an absolute powerhouse he is," said Charlie O'Connor, director of sales at Ashford Stud. "Match that with Paladin, an undefeated early Derby favorite who beat subsequent Kentucky Derby winner Golden Tempo, and you have two incredibly exciting colts. Both are already showing at the stallion barn, and we welcome breeders to come down and see them."
