The Souper Speedy Partnership is very sad to announce the untimely passing of Souper Speedy (Indian Charlie – Speed Succeeds, by Gone West) at the age of 15. He was humanely euthanized after a non-treatable paddock accident on October 10, 2024.
Souper Speedy was Graded stakes-placed at two and a stakes winner at three. He ran multiple 100+ Beyer figures during his career.
He stood at T.C. Westmeath Stud and currently has seven crops of racing age and has sired 15 stakes winners and a total of 34 stakes horses with earnings of close to $14,000,000 U.S.
Souper Speedy is currently the Leading Sire in Canada by earnings and has 11 stakes horses so far in 2024. His two-year-old filly Souper Supreme, a $100,000 yearling, is one of this year’s top two-year-old fillies in Canada.
Souper Speedy was bred by Charlotte Weber’s Live Oak Stud and raced by her Live Oak Planation.
He was very popular with Ontario breeders throughout his whole stud career, whether they bred to race or sell. He was often the leader in Ontario by number of mares bred, including 2024.
Souper Speedy was the epitome of class and passed it on to his offspring. Many trainers would often comment on how laid back and easy-going they are, while still having the heart and desire that make them successful.
His passing leaves a large hole in the Ontario stallion ranks.
Thank you to all of the breeders and owners who supported Souper Speedy over the last ten years.
