hmmm... this is more difficult, and there are only 8 fillies from which to choose. No one shows an official work at 59 from last saturday. No obvious Tilt the Stars breeding. I see that you're from Delaware. Black Eyed Susan at Pimlico tomorrow.... you may have beaten me on this one.

Ok... guessing Enchanting Star, who had a work of 59:40 on Saturday and has the word Star in her name.

I remember when Tilt the Stars first went to stud. I had owned his dam's half brother by Wajima, who was also unraced. (that will be our next trivia question)

Tilt the Stars was exported to Venzuela, but was supposed to brought back because of his success with only 19 foals. However, he never made it back, and when I called the Florida farm which had advertised him they told me that he was very sick and not expected to make it.

His dam's half brother by Wajima was shipped to Canada to Gardiner Farm, where he bred 6 mares and died. Four foals resulted, two fillies and two colts. No runners in the bunch. I remember two of the foals names, Elegant Lou and Maybe for Mink. Bonus points for naming the other two foals of this 1/2 brother to Tilt My Halo (and son of Loudrangle).

NOBLE BIJOU, 1971 by *Vaguely Noble-Priceless Gem. Unraced half brother to ALLEZ FRANCE. Diabolically crooked legs. Sire of countless Group One winners, known for their soundness, in Australia and New Zealand. Champion sire and broodmare sire on several occasions.

Which filly was yours? I'm still curious!

Enchanting Star is correct

Springboro: Sorry. I've been moving and out of touch. Your guess is correct. Hope you saved the $2.
My rider got into a speed duel with Biancone's filly which was not the strategy.
