Well, we started with a bang this year. Four foals on the first!
Barbarossa(Octagonal (B) x Ch. Early Valentine by The Black)
9.0hh Chestnut Colt
Second foal out of a stakes winning dam.Early Valentine is out of Black Swan, making her half siblings with WCh. Strike It Rich and GCh. Endless Flight and GCh. Swan Song. High hopes for this colt.
Gossip Rag (FFCh. Takemetohollywood (B) x NCh. Guess What (S) by Cigar)
8.0hh Dark Bay Filly
Guess What is a multi-stakes winning millionairess in her own right who has produced SP Rumplestiltskin. What makes us really excited about this foal is that we know Kermit has already crossed quite successfully with the Demand to Know line (Toast of the Town) so we're optimistic that this foal will be just as successful.
Not Another Word (ICh. Blue Smoke x Ch. Notanotherhighland (S) by NCh. Highland Wizard)
8.0hh Bay Filly
Filly is 1/2 to two SPed foals Ch. Timbuktu and That's Not My Point. Notanotherhighland's foals seem to mature a touch early, so we're hoping that Blue Smoke can add some longevity. Not Another Word is from Blue Smoke's first crop.
Repair Order (NCh. Dark Demand x Broken-Down Nag)
8.3h Chestnut Filly
This filly is from the 3rd crop of both her sire and dam. Dam ran well as a 4yo and 5yo, so hopefully this mare will have a long peak period. She 's 1/2 to Hopefully that starts this year and Niger Delta.
