At the end of this 3 year old season, Pleasant Colony was sent to stud duty at Buckland Farm where he stood from 1982 to 1998, producing 73 stakes race winners including more than a dozen Grade I winners and champions. He is the damsire of Forestry, who sired a yearling (The Green Monkey) that was sold in February 2006 for a world record price of $16 million.
