That’s so fascinating! How did you run across his name? Do you often study fossil flies or what? I googled it before asking and nothing came up in the first few sites so I thought I’d just ask directly (and let you know I was interested in knowing more rather than letting you go without a response on something so cool as a winning essay).
Thank you! I read about it in a newspaper.
Baby girl her half sister is from my “Spanish generation”…

[color=red]TSCHüSS
NCh. Space Chips x GCh. Yeman - A.P. Indy (S)
9.1h black filly
Name means (informal) bye, cheers, ciao; and I think it’s one of the very pretty German words. This filly will probably become a dirt sprinter, and both her parents were 2yo champions. GCh. Yeman will be bred to Curlin.
8 Colts | 15 Fillies | 1 Stillborn
[color=blue]ÃœBERMORGEN
NCh. Al Mundhir x GCh. Private Party - NCh. Sneak Peek (S)
10.0h strawberry roan colt
1/2 brother to [color=green]Don Galante. Private Party was one of my first stakes level racehorses; then I sold her as a broodmare, and then I bought her back. Her foals don’t seem to share her enthusiasm for racing, but they may be late bloomers. “Ãœbermorgen” means “the day after tomorrow”, so something like Spanish “mañana”… Private Party missed her booking to Space Chips and she will wait till next year with breeding.
9 Colts | 15 Fillies | 1 Stillborn

NCh. Ducati x Ch. Nightingale Island - ICh. Ring of Fire (B)
8.3h bay filly
I couldn’t find any cool German words starting with Y, so this is Hebrew for a change (or at least the Internets say so). She is 3x3 inbred to Chef-de-Race (I/C) Cross Roads, and 4x4 inbred to Chef-de-Race (I/C) Highland Rogue. First foal for this mare. Nightingale Island will be bred to Al Mundhir.
10 Colts | 19 Fillies | 1 Stillborn
The “forum post format” link disappeared, but we have a beautiful colt by Frosted, out of our millionaire mare Pinoit: [color=blue]Zeitgeist. I can’t believe that this name wasn’t taken! The Zeitgeist is a concept from 18th to 19th-century German philosophy, translated as “spirit of the age” or “spirit of the times”. It refers to an invisible agent or force dominating the characteristics of a given epoch in world history.
Pinoit will be bred to our stallion Space Chips.
LOVE the name! Only just discovered it while listening to Hardcore History podcast. Has a certain zing to it.
