MAGNOLIA, TX–NOVEMBER 15, 2024–Peepl R Political SI 94, a stakes finalist and son of leading sire Apollitical Jess, will begin his stallion career at Rigby Equine Medicine and Reproduction.

His fee has been set at $1,500, with consideration given to approved mares. The first fifty breeders who book their mares to Peepl R Political will pay only the farm and collection fees, with the stud fee waived.

Bred by Debbie Strebig in Oklahoma, Peepl R Political was lightly raced as a three-year-old in 2024. From five starts, the sorrel colt broke his maiden in June at Canterbury Park, clocking a 94 speed index. Then, in August returned to the track as a finalist in the Canterbury Park Derby.

Now owned by Rigby and Brumby Partnership, Peepl R Political will begin his stallion career as a four-year-old in 2025. He is backed by an influential pedigree of champions, leading sires and blue hen mares.
