The highlight of our day were another G1W and two more 2YO winners.

In contrast, we only have one foal by [color=blue]High Chances, a Weanling, not for lack of trying. We continually search Auctions to find any others but, the few times we have seen any, we have been unable to get them.

We had a pretty good turn out this week. One of our stakes entries brought home a paycheck!

Winners
Saturn’s Rings (3yo Ring of Fire) won his first SW in the Royal Hunt Club Handicap.
I Spy (2yo Clockstopper) broke her maiden in an NW3 against the boys.
Morocco (2yo Dark Continent) broke her maiden at Del Mar.
Fire in the Sky (2yo Call To War) broke her maiden in an NW2 at Belmont.

Place
For Pete’s Sake (2yo High Chances) came in 2nd against the boys in an NW1.
Left At the Alter (2yo High On Love) in an NW1.
Scottish Silver (2yo Slew O’Scots) in a Maiden.
A Month of Sundays (3yo Rock of Gibraltar) in an NW3.
Got the Scoop (3yo Bellagio) in a claimer.

Show
Unanimous (2yo Demand the Best) in an NW2.
Misfortune (2yo Almost Precious) in an NW3 against the boys.
Color By Numbers (5yo High Chances) in an OA.
Labor of Love (2yo Demand the Best) in a Maiden.
Hue and Cry (2yo Slew O’Scots) in a maiden.
Yes Man (3yo Ring of Fire) in an NW3.

And a bunch of also-rans. Starling needs one more SW to studify. Just one. And he seems pretty determined not to do it.

Glad his foals seem to be running well for you!

I think FF might have a bunch of his foals. Maybe petition Shanthi to throw them into some of the auctions? Otherwise, he does have openings in July and August if you’re interested in breeding your own.
