LITTLE BLACK BOOK, 10h dark bay filly
GCh. Edinburgh (B) x Ch. Little Black Dress - NCh. Bellagio
First filly for her dam, who was a G3W and set 2 speed records. Little Black Dress will visit Space Chips next.
LONGAFTERMIDNIGHT, 9.1h bay colt
WCh. Express Yourself (S) x Midnight Radiance (S) - The Black (S)
Purchased in-foal. Half to SW Omen of the Sun. Midnight Radiance will visit Blue Smoke for 2024.
RED KITE, 9.1h brown colt
NCh. French Ruby (B) x Ch. Honeybird - NCh. Joyeux Oiseau
Sort of a coming together for me, as Joyeux Oiseau was my first stallion ever and we currently own Ruby. This boy is definitely bred for SC, so I don’t expect him to really move until 3-4 years old. Honeybird will visit Lord Nelson next.
TRANCE, 8.3h chestnut filly
NCh. Ancient Magic x Clarity - Rahy (S)
Only raced half-sib is placed, but we just picked up her 2yo half-sister this past January. Clarity will visit Quintet for 2024.
WINTER FLANNEL, 9.2h dark bay colt
ICh. Blue Smoke (B) x Monday Morning (B) - Lonesome Glory (G)
Another purchased in-foal. Half to SP Sweet Ginger Brew. Monday Morning has been consigned, unbred, to the Mixed Auction.
FOOL ME NOT, 9.0h liver chestnut filly
FFCh. I’m No Fool (S) x Ch. Dixie’s Spurs - GCh. Tottenham Hotspur
SO happy for a filly! First foal for her dam who is half to MSW’s GCh. Superdocious, GCh. Shiloh’s Hill, GCh. Cup O’ Tea, GCh. Princess Kaiulani (dam of MSW Ch. Royal Sacred One), and gold-ranked Ch. Bonnie Blue Flag who has produced 80% winners and 2 MSW’s. Lots of power in this damline and I’m excited to couple it with the Foolhardy line. Dixie’s Spurs was MSP herself. She will visit Blue Smoke for 2024.
Final overdue mare dropped, which just leaves a long wait until the 30th for our final May mares. Fillies are taking over this season.
[color=red]MAGPIE WITCH[/color], 9.2h bay filly
NCh. Pay the Boatman (B) x Ch. Queen of Crows - NCh. I’m A Classic (S)
First foal for her SW and MG1P dam, whom we had bred ages ago! She’s definitely bred to dazzle early as both parents did extremely well at two. Queen of Crows will visit Belanso next.
MARASCHINO, 7.3h blue roan colt
ICh. Candidate (S) x Cherry Cheesecake (G) - Distinct Possibili (S)
Originally due June 9th, this little guy is half to MSW’s Ch. Cherries Jubilee and Ch. Get the Axe. His 2yo half-sister recently ran 2nd in her debut.
OAKLEAF, 7.2h bay filly
GCh. Naval Commander (B) x Oakley (S) - Twin Oaks (S)
Half to MSW’s Ch. Leading The Parade and Ch. Red Alycatta. Hard to say what she might do as her family has been fairly inactive (ex: half-sister Eye of Rah, has one foal on the ground who is an unraced 5yo; two half-sibs who haven’t raced this year and one didn’t race until 5, etc). Oakley herself is half to 4 silver mares and gold-ranked Golden Indy (dam of 100% SW’s and 2 MSW’s). Oakley will visit Belanso for 2024.
It’s a Strike it Rich sort of night, and both a week early.
[color=red]INFINITY STONE[/color], 8.3h bay filly
WCh. Strike It Rich (S) x The Tessaract - ICh. Devil His Due
Second foal for multi-winning dam, a half-sister to MSW Ch. Aether and SW Ch. Infinity Gauntlet. Bred on a lease, The Tessaract has returned to RC Bee (that doesn’t sound weird).
[color=blue]HOBBIDIDANCE[/color], 9.3h bay colt
NCh. French Ruby (B) x Ch. Titania - ICh. Long Live The King
Third foal and first colt for Titania. Titania was a fairy and character in A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and a hobbididance (beyond being a fun word) is a malevolent sprite and a villain in King Lear. Titania will be sold unbred in the Black Storm West auction.
DROPOUT DRAMA, 9.1h dark bay filly
NCh. Nobly Regal (S) - Easy Senora (S) - Easy Goer (G)
Half to SP’s Trinary Star, Snow Garden, and Ojos de Brujo. Easy Senora will be sold unbred at the stable auction beginning Wednesday.
FADING FOG, 8.3h dark gray filly
NCh. Ducati (B) x Seattle Rockette (G) - Seattle Slew (S)
Half to MSW Ch. RadioCity Rockette and 100% winners. Seattle Rockette will be bred to Nobly Regal next.
ENZAHI, 8.3h dark bay colt
GCh. Mantle of Power (S) x Egyptian Princess - GCh. Akhetnaten (S)
Named after the Egyptian Arabian stallion, Hadban Enzahi. Fourth foal and third colt for Egyptian Princess. From the same damline as MSW Ch. Lord of Misrule. Egyptian Princess will be sold, unbred, in tomorrow’s stable auction.
RUNAWAYANDHIDE, 9.3h blue roan filly
NCh. Worthy Victor (S) x Classical Hightail (B) - GCH. Simply Heroic (S)
Half to 100% winners. She is bred on the same Sire/Broodmare-Sire cross as MSW Ch. Worthy Endeavor. Bred on a lease, Classical Hightail has returned to Sakura Springs.
DIPPED IN TWILIGHT, 10h black colt
NCh. Fight the Twilight (B) x Dipped in Flowers - WCh. Strike it Rich (B)
First foal for multi-winning dam, a half-sister to MSW Ch. Don’t Trip and MSP Ch. Fool For Flowers. Quite excited for this big boy as both my Fight the Twilight 2yo’s have been consistently hitting the board so far (2 starts each). Dipped in Flowers will visit Allinvain for 2024.
6 mares now overdue despite the final June foal due Monday.
