I’ll be honest, I was completely floored by today’s results! 7 BC runners and not one below 4th! Homebred Fractal won the Distaff for the second time in her life and earned both her NCh. title and a speed record (her 2nd speed record this year)! She is now the highest earner I’ve ever owned, currently sitting at $3,639,050! Aria, also a homebred, won the BC Mile for the second year in a row. And to top it off, stablemate Powerful Soul just scored his 9th win in a row and now only needs a stakes place of any grade to be stud qualified!

Omg what a day! 14 BC runners total, two wins (including a 1-2 in the F/M Turf), and 12 were in the top 3 with none worse than 5th. Extremely excited over Local Haunt’s 2 length win in the Classic! Clearly he heard me complaining he hasn’t won in months; he now has $10M lifetime and 7 G1 wins. Crown of Oak has been a BEAST this year and has won 5 of her 6 races, including her last 4 and 3 have been G1’s.

@Firefly Congrats with Powerful Soul’s win! I’m excited to see him qualify (shouldn’t be an issue at this point, haha). Also congrats with Fractal’s speed record, makes running 2nd to her that much more exciting. And third congrats/shoutout with Sunstep’s Juvenile Fillies placing, as she’s a former homebred.

Amazing first year for my barn at the Breeders’ Cup! All three mares I sent finished in the money, with a 2-3 in the SC Distaff – and, no surprise, our best day ever for purse money won. Last year I won $1.8M all year; I could definitely get used to $800k in one day, hahah.

@Shelbie, thank you! I’m looking forward to seeing Local Haunt in the stud line-up, too! Already have some girls I’d love to pair with him. XD

We had other horses that knew where the finish line was but I just had to share. I believe I own only Goldilocks horses that didn’t care for the texture of the track today (or something?). I’m a little surprised Z bombed but she’s never run on a wet surface, so clearly it’s not her jam. Perhaps we were just there to make sure everyone else crossed the finish line :crazy_face: Congratulations to everyone! Let me know your secrets!
