Won her first start (MSW 6f on dirt Dec 19 R6 @Los Al) by 6 1/2 lengths
Now entered in the Cal Cup Oaks on Jan 25th. Both of her parents are at the farm where I work. Very exciting to see, especially as we have her 2 year old half sis, by Pleasantly Perfect. Her mother (Kathryn's Birthday) doing very well in the breeding shed, all winners if I remember correctly.

Re: Sheer Pleasure
I'm glad for you ArchDandy. It must be exciting indeed.
Re: Sheer Pleasure
Made her rally from last, 4th place seems fair when I remember its only her 2nd start. I think its pretty fair to say she belonged though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=huak7s0S_A0
Re: Sheer Pleasure
Is now looking to run in the Evening Jewel Stakes @Santa Anita on April 4th. She lost her rider out of the gate in her last outing, both were ok- and she demonstrated her understanding of the game by running with the others and passing all horses in the stretch sans rider.

Re: Sheer Pleasure
The $200,000 G2 Summertime Oaks (June 20th) is next for Sheer Pleasure. I'm now in charge of prepping 4 yearlings including a half sister to sheer pleasure, for a sale in KY. This is so fun and exciting!!!
Re: Sheer Pleasure
Congratulations! Yearlings are a blast.
She is a really nice filly.

Re: Sheer Pleasure
Bummer! Tough trip on the rail forced Sheer Pleasure to back up several times to get around everyone and make her rally. I have a feeling she would have been 'right there'. Next time! In other news SP's 2 year old half sis is getting ready to be broke/gallop so should be seeing her by year's end!
