Old Forster- Sabino or Splash producer?

Postby Shannon » Sun Nov 21, 2010 12:02 pm

Not sure which it would be, but watching Woodbine racing on TV, and there is an Old Forster 2 yo filly named Blondeonthebeach that has a big white face/muzzle, 4 high white legs, and a big white splotch on her right flank (like a belly spot the landed too high).

Tried to find a pic, but couldn't.
Does Old Forster have a pedigree that produces colour?
A woman needs 2 animals in her life-the horse of her dreams, and a jackass to pay for it!

Forestry (sire of Old Forester) produces lots of flashy horses.

This is going way way back in time, but Old Forester's younger half sister by City Zip, Catch a Glimpse, just won the Breeders Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf.
She is a chestnut with a huge white blaze, no socks though. Colour may have come a little bit from sire? Or is there something in the female side of these horses that stands out to anyone in the know.

Every mighty oak was once an acorn that stood its ground.
