sorry for the mixup....you know how there's many stories behind horse's ?....well catina park has one...my longtime best friend pat lupiani {20yrs+} always took the road trips with me to check out stallions first hand....we would take 2-3 trips a year going to different farms , just me and him and along the way talk about life in general, family, our kids, politics {we were both far apart on this}....well anyway's pat didn't own thoroughbred horse's but always wanted to...so when my first homebred{catina} had some success we had a ball....this horse never missed the board without a legit excuse in her life ! so when she injured herself by breaking a bone i retired her and decided to breed her. well patsy asked if he could go in as a partner . well we took another couple of road trips ...came up with UTOPIA as the sire ....so we are waiting and waiting.........april comes around this year....patsy is told by his doctor that he has lung cancer but its treatable....long story short...patsy died this past november ...he was looking forward to his second grandchilds birth in february..and catina's first foal and his first venture into the thoroughbred horse biz.....so you can understand why THIS FOAL is extra special to me.....god moves in strange way's.
