At Hyperion Stud, we are dedicated to producing top horses for sport, and have spent many years carefully planning our breeding program. From selecting mares from the top mare families in the world that embody the characteristics necessary to produce future stars, to choosing stallions with noteworthy performance records and proven success in the breeding shed.

The 2017 breeding season has come to an end. In June we welcomed our final foal of the season in Germany, a colt by Uriko.  Of the eight foals we had this season in the US and Europe, seven of them were colts! The only filly was born on the farm in Virginia to our beautiful States Premium mare, Vision.
