Prix Foy
In August 1978 a half-share in the colt was sold to the Irish breeder Tim Rogers and he began his stud career at the Ballymany Stud, County Kildare in 1979. He had serious fertility problems and sired very few foals. He was returned to racing as an eight-year-old in 1983, but failed to recover his old form finishing last in the Prix Foy and twenty-fourth of the twenty-six runners in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe.
