11/23

Racing How'd You Do?
1

Only one out.

[color=red]Ch. Crownette fnished 7th/8 in open allowance steeplechase, and has been retired to brood, unfortunately being winless this year. I’m planning to breed her to ICh. Stressed; he was a stakes winner for three years, and the foal will be 3x3 inbred to Man O’War. Crownette has a really nice pedigree; she’s by Giant’s Causeway and out of Gold ranked Cream of the Crop, dam of NCh. Medallion. I think Crownette is the only mare going to the breeding shed this year, but quite a lot of current broodmares will be sold or retired after foaling.

Also only one out.

[color=red]Necromancy (4yo, Magic Glory) ran 3rd/6 in his OA.

3

Good day, just three ladies out in OAs for two wins and a second.

[color=red]Danzintothetop (3yo Strider) won her first start since joining us from the Select Auction. A drop in trip seemed to help her get her head in front.

I’d thought about retiring [color=red]Send Me Flowers (5yo Sadlers Wells) earlier this year but she’s now won 8 races this year and earned her GCh title :slight_smile:

[color=red]In The Loop (4yo As You Wish) has also been ultra consistent this year. She finished 2nd today and might have one more race before having a break at the farm.

Hopefully all three will be flying the flag for us next year.
