Northern Dancer stood at stud at Taylor's Windfields Farm in Oshawa, Ontario until 1969 when he was moved to Windfields Maryland farm where he remained until his death. Northern Dancer was the most successful sire in thoroughbred horse-racing in the 20th Century. His offspring have earned more money and won more major stakes races than those of any other sire up until the 1990s era of shuttle stallions, including North American, Japanese, Australian and European champions. He sired 146 stakes winners.  Among his famous sons are:

Danzig (sire of standouts Danehill, Danzig Connection, Lure, Polish Navy and Dayjur, among others); Fairy King (Helissio, Turtle Island), Northern Taste (Dyna Gulliver, Amber Shadai, and Adorable); Lyphard (Dancing Brave, Alzao, Ghadeer, Lypheor, Ends Well, etc.); Nijinsky II (Caerleon, Shadeed, Green Dancer, Hostage, etc.); Nureyev (Theatrical, Polar Falcon, Zilzal, etc.); Sadler’s Wells (Barathea, El Prado, Saddlers’ Hall, Fort Wood, Correggio, etc.); Storm Bird (Storm Cat, Personal Hope, Summer Squall, etc.); and Vice Regent (Deputy Minister, Regal Classic, etc.).
