Risen Star was never really commercially successful because his retirement coincided with breeders beginning to show a strong preference for speed sires rather than those who excelled at classic distances. From his $75K fee in 1990, his fee had declined to $5,000 in 1995, the same fee for which he was standing at the time of his death.
Bothered by stomach problems throughout his stud career, he died of colic on March 13, 1998
Buried at Walmac Farm, KY
