The National Stud in Newmarket has released 2019 prices for its five-strong roster, with first-season sire Gregorian's fee to almost double from £4,500 to £8,000.

The stud stands the nine-year-old son of Clodovil on behalf of his breeder Rathasker Stud, and among his first runners this year was the Lowther Stakes third Queen Jo Jo, the twice Group-placed Chynna and Gypsy Spirit, who was third of 28 in the £150,000 Tattersalls October Auction Stakes earlier this month.

Aclaim, who joined the National Stud roster this year, has seen his fee trimmed from £12,500 to £9,500, while fellow newcomer Time Test remains at a fee of £8,500.

As was announced previously, the two new recruits Lancaster Bomber and Rajasinghe will be introduced at fees of £8,500 and £5,000 respectively.
