Shakin It Up to stand at Caines Stallion Station in Oklahoma
Shakin It Up, who became the first horse in 40 years to pull off the Grade 1 Malibu and Grade 2 San Vicente Stakes double, has been sold to continue his career at Caines Stallion Station in Okalahoma.
In a deal brokered by Chad Schumer of Schumer Bloodstock, the nine-year-old son of Midnight Lute will move from his present home at Spendthrift Farm in Kentucky.
In two crops of racing age, Shakin It Up is the sire of stakes winner B B Dude alongside promising Japanese juvenile Koei Bakushin, a $115,000 two-year-old in training purchase who recently broke his maiden in impressive style at Hanshin. Two-year-olds by Shakin It Up have sold for up to $400,000 at auction.
Trained by Bob Baffert, Shakin It Up broke his two-year-old maiden at Santa Anita and along with the San Vicente and the Malibu, he took the Grade 2 Strub Stakes and was placed in the Grade 1 Metropolitan Handicap, Grade 2 Churchill Downs Stakes and Grade 3 Hollywood Prevue Stakes.
Latterly, he has been standing for $5,000 at Spendthrift and his new fee will be announced at a later date.
