And I bet you could get some of those mares for nothing, literally :)

There's a nice G2 SW son of Marju for sale too.... he did his best running at 2 in Europe and has done NOTHING in the US.

I put his info in the For Sale section... name is Stormont.

Interesting pedigree. Sire is a G1 miler who is a 1/2 to Salsabil.
Dam is 1/2 to G1 Australian mare, Super Sheila, and from the immediate family of champions Sulamani, Dream Well, as well as G1 winner Tuzla and Metamorphose.

I think he's a bit overpriced at $5,000, but I do like his pictures.

Jorge, he's a grey too!

If Stormont was female he would not be for sale. Marju is a great producer of fillies.

Stormont (gray H 2000) http://www.pedigreequery.com/stormont2
Note that Stormont’s fourth dam is Polamia (gray M 1955), the dam of the great Grey Dawn (gray H 1962) http://www.pedigreequery.com/grey+dawn2

Marju's daughter is the dam of Canford Cliffs, who just beat Goldikova in the Queen Anne. Stormont needs a sex change!

Musketier won the Grade 2 WL McKnight H at Calder yesterday nearly reaching millionaire status. The plan is to bring him back to race at age 10, perhaps racing once at Gulfstream then heading to Keeneland in the spring. Can't say I blame them as he seems fine traveling the country with his stuffed monkey and winning some nice coin. So I will wait..........

It's a teddy bear, but it is pretty worn out so it's hard to tell:

Anyway it still look like a monkey but not a green one!
The sport and industry survive not only because of the champions that are remembered forever but also because of the losers that are so easy to forget...

How cute this is!

Remembers me of a picture I took of our filly with the stallcat (I named him Smokey).
