Reasonable day, 7 out and 6 in the money. The exception was a 2yo so not too concerned about that.

Today’s highlight was [color=red]Unlikely Angel (2yo) becoming the first winner for her sire, Blue Smoke  :smiley: Glad He’s finally off the mark.

[color=red]Celestial Game (3yo Foolhardy) won her NW1. [color=red]Freedom Is Mine (3yo Tryst of Fate) was 3rd.

[color=red]Tinseltown (3yo TakeMeToHollywood) was 2nd in her maiden.

[color=blue]Free At Last (4yo Highland Wizard) was 3rd in his OA.

We also claimed [color=red]Matchmaker (2yo V is For Victory). She won her claimer.

And you bred Blue Smoke’s first winner …

Yay! I saw another winner in my Breeding Statistics but couldn’t find which one it was.

So with this crazy life, a lot of my more seasoned ponies are out on lease, and the rest have all been getting fat at the farm.  Still, I sent out 4 this day, and they all performed (for once!)
