Stud Record
He stood at stud first at the Egerton Stud, Newmarket and later at his owner's East Woodhay Stud. Brigadier Gerard was not a success as a sire, and much less successful than his contemporary and rival Mill Reef, but he did get a classic winner in Light Cavalry who won the St. Leger Stakes in 1980. Brigadier Gerard died in 1989 and his remains are interred in the gardens of the Swynford Hotel (formally Swynford Paddocks), Six Mile Bottom, Newmarket.

Famous quotes containing the word record:
“Death is another milestone on their way.
With laughter on their lips and with winds blowing round them
They record simply
How this one excelled all others in making driving belts.”
