career Sir Bevys retired to stud at a modest fee of 10 guineas. The best of his offspring was probably the black colt Morglay, who won the Ascot Derby and the Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot in 1889, although his biggest winner was the filly Primrose Day who won the Cesarewitch Handicap in the same year. Sir Bevys died in March 1896 following a "general break-up of his system."
