Very nice!! I love Soaring Softly as all my "kids" are coming from a Kris S. stallion I love dearly, and they are all fillies so I keep whispering in their ears to be 1/10 as good as she lol :lol: !!
trying to come up with something brillant..... this may take a while. :)

Congrats on a nice debut win.

I echo earlier comments in that if/when your filly tries the grass you really could have monster on your hands. Just my two cents worth.

She'll definitely be touching grass at some point in her career, but first off we'll try to max her out on the dirt/synth (in case she takes she takes offense to going to grass and coming back off). I actually think she should like the synth a lot, and Keeneland would hit her schedule perfectly, so she may pop up there. We also have two other talented 3 year old fillies set for the grass this year, so would be great if we could spread 'em out a bit.

It was nice to see Day of Destiny (same cross, DH and Kris S.) make a sharp debut on the dirt at 7 furlongs as well the other day. Maybe that's a sign that the cross will take to the dirt more than might be expected.

There's no denying fate though if the day comes when it's clear it's turf time! I know I wouldn't be upset if she turned out to run like her mom on the stuff.

I hope she pulls some stakes wins for you down the road.

Thanks Francesca...she's being given a much-deserved rest, and then I think we'll try to make a run at the NY Triple Tiara :-). First stop would be the Acorn on Belmont Day. We're confident (and hopeful) that she'll be tough at a mile. We would then try to step up distances incrementally as the next two legs add a sixteenth each time. We definitely haven't seen her ceiling yet.

Wow, how exciting. Keep us posted on all your horses and when they will run again. I don't mind living vicariously!
