Warrawee Vital To Stand In Ontario

Published: January 13, 2021 09:00 pm EST

The connections of multiple Grand Circuit stakes winner Warrawee Vital (p,3, 1:47.1; $246,428) are pleased to announce that he will be standing stud privately in Ontario for the upcoming 2021 breeding season.

Limited bookings are now available to breed to Warrawee Vital, the fastest-ever offspring of champion racehorse and leading stallion Captaintreacherous, for an introductory fee of $5,000.

Out of one of the most prolific broodmares in racing, Great Memories, Vital is a half-brother to both World Champion Warrawee Ubeaut (p,2, 1:48.3; $1.9 million), the co-fastest two-year-old in the history of the sport, and former World Champion Warrawee Needy (p,4, 1:46.4; $1.2 million).

The Rob Fellows-trained Warrawee Vital will pull double duty in 2021 by returning to the racetrack for his four-year-old season along with standing stud.

Warrawee Vital burst onto the Grand Circuit scene in late summer of 2020, posting dominant victories in the Simcoe Stakes and Somebeachsomewhere at Woodbine Mohawk Park - the latter over Little Brown Jug winner Captain Barbossa. Travelling to the U.S. afterwards, he took a career-best 1:47.1 victory in the Bluegrass Stakes at The Red Mile - matching Tall Dark Stranger and Papi Rob Hanover for the second fastest North American mile by a three-year-old in 2020.

In two consecutive starts to follow, Warrawee Vital finished a close second to probable U.S. Horse of the Year Tall Dark Stranger in the Tattersalls and their Breeders Crown elimination, pacing his final quarters in those races in :26.1 and :25.2 respectively.

Warrawee Vital posted seven wins and four runner-up finishes in 14 starts as a three-year-old, with more than half of his wins recorded in 1:49.1 or better. Career-wise he has earned $246,428 in just 16 starts for owners Blair Corbeil, Yolanda Fellows and M & S Racing Stable.
