Mi Sueno is going to enjoy stretching out a bit and she's my choice for the BC Juvie Fillies.

Her dam was serious.

snowed in nevada in august? wow.

lol I just made up a name. She be Wild not she be bad, the filly that waltzed home in the 7F arlington park race on the fake. she looks legit and looks like she will love stretching out. Ilike her alot


I could also see quality road in the classic, but i made a pact with myself after the epic failure last year to not bet dirt horses on the fake regardless how much i like them.

I thought that's who you might have meant. The Offlee Wild's have been runners so far.

I really like what he's been throwing a lot.

I loved him so much that I bred my broodmare to him in 06, she came up empty and then went back to him in 08 and got a gorgeous colt this year.

It's his first crop racing. Yes.

He's current 2 on the First-Crop sires list with 58 current 2 year olds, 16 runners, 6 winners, 2 stakes winners, 4 stakes horses, and just under 300k in earnings.

They should only get better with distance and age. Their precocity is a tad surprising, although he was a maiden winner at 2 going 6f, he didn't get real good until after 4.

Love that you're taking a plunge more than 3 months out. I'm gonna throw out Presious Passion to win the Turf, I think he'll like the firm turf at Santa Anita.
