Sex. Money. Horses. Every year, on Valentine's Day, the great Thoroughbred
farms open their breeding sheds and begin their primary
business. For the next one hundred and fifty days, the
cries of stallions and the vigorous encouragement of their
handlers echo through breeding country, from the gentle
hills of Kentucky to the rich valleys of California. Stud
takes us into this strange and seductive world of horse
breeding. We meet the world's leading sire, Storm Cat, the
Triple Crown winner, Seattle Slew, and a nearly
unmanageable colt, Devil Begone, who has found peace and
prosperity on the banks of the Rio Grande servicing desert
mares like Patty O'Furniture. Cheap stud, top stud, old
stud, wild stud, from the Hall of Fame horse to the harem
stallion with his feral herd, Stud looks at intimate acts
in idyllic settings and the billion-dollar business behind
them.
