ON THE TRACK, Zadar was a force.  He was nearly undefeated in his 3YO year, winning every race except one, and those were nearly all stakes races.  He continued to win stakes races from age 3 to 5, doing best in both sprints & classic distances over both surfaces, but no year came close to his 3 year old record.
AS A SIRE, Zadar is a newly retired freshman.

I am currently working to get my mare bookings sorted out so that I can open up their books to the public.  I will post once they are open.  Sorry for the inconvenience!

What are your plans for [color=blue]Franco Classico? Are you going to Retire him to stud or keep him in training for this year? If you are going to keep him in training, would you be interested in Leasing him to me for the year, otherwise, if you are going to Retire him to Stud, I have a couple of mares I would like to send to him.

Thanks.

I’m afraid to give up on him just yet, but I clearly didn’t have as much time as I’d hoped last year…  I was going to contact you.  If you are interested in doing a free lease on him, then I would be totally grateful!  Also, since you helped out so much with my horses the previous year, I was going to give you first dibs on these boys in case you needed/wanted any spots.  It’s the least I can do after all you’ve done for me!

Now that my baby is 9 months old and toddler is 2, they’re getting slightly less needy (able to play together and give me a free minute or two), so I’m hoping I will gradually up my time on FF.  In the mean time, I’ve been trying to downsize the herd, streamline my processes, and try to get back on track.  But Franco is awfully special, so I’d hate for his career to take any more of a hit due to my lack of time.  I’m not quite ready to give up on him in case he’s got more to show on the track - but if he returns to the track with no signs of his former spark, he may yet retire this spring…  I’m hopeful that he’s got more in store, though.  I’ve gone ahead and set up the free lease to you for now!  All of my horses were shipped home to rest up while I sorted through breeding stuff, so hopefully he’ll be raring to go soon.

Hi Alyssa!

I’d like to breed:

Ch. Mauiluv - NCh. Allinvain - she’s due 7/1/21 so can be his latest slot.

Ch. Cordially - GCh. Zadar - could be early April.

I know you’re still sorting yours but wanted to post so I don’t forget :wink:

Hi Alyssa

If possible, could I get a March or April slot to Fight The Twilight for Comedienne?

Thanks

I’d like two slots to each of your boys, anytime from Feb-May works. :slight_smile: Still have about 20 mares to figure out for outside studs.

It was my pleasure to help you out and your horses presence seemed to encourage mine to run better. I’ll take up the lease on Franco when I get home later today. If there are any others you might be interested in leasing out, let me know.

As far as the breedings, I had a couple of mares lined up to send to Franco if he went to stud, so I’ll decide which others of your boys to send them to instead (also may send a couple of the mares I had lined up to go to Tottenham Hotspur too).

Can I please get the following bookings (once you’ve sorted out your own Mares):-

Bellagio:- June 1 for American Dance
Fight The Twilight:- Mar 1 for Fool’s Kiss
Bear Witness:- Mar 3 for Sargasso
Exit Poll:- April 2 for DashingCoronaRose
Allinvain:- June 1 for Secret Fox
Zadar:- June 1 for Fit to be Tied

If any of these are not available, could I please get the next available slot?

Thanks.

Once you’ve sorted out your own mares I’d be interested in:

Allinvain: early March for Anne Boleyn
Fight the Twilight: early April, no mare picked yet

i have a pending booking for must be patient to fight the twilight from your stallion page.on march10 is this ok to go ahead?

I will be going in order of request after I sort out my mares (and Starfish’s horse, because I owe him like a million favors for everything he’s done to help my horses stay active these last couple years!).  I will let you know as soon as I can!

I would like to get a slot to Bellagio to my mare Magic Maxine once you get everything sorted.

Please, Thank you.

Alisander

If there’s an April slot available with Bellagio, please could I pencil in Oryx?

Thanks

Alright, I’ve gotten everyone in at or very, very close to their requested dates, both from this thread and from PM.  Please let me know if you need me to make any changes!

Shanthi - since you didn’t specify dates, I just gave you the first two available to each boy for now.  Let me know if you want them more spaced out or whatever.

Alisander - I saw that Maxine is currently open, so I gave her as early a slot as I had open.  Please let me know if you’d like a different date instead.  :slight_smile:

Thanks for squeezing my girls in - dates should be fine

Thanks!

Ugh, sorry, will need to adjust bookings now that I’ve had a chance to sit down and pick specific mares.

Allinvain

Bear Witness
Just one, Mar 2 for Par Te Girl

Bellagio

Ducati

Thanks!

Thanks Alyssa.

I had a bit of a scare when I was looking at what you had assigned for my mares when I didn’t see any Starfish mares listed for either Bellagio or Zadar. However, when I looked again, I realized that they were there but you had accidentally listed them as Ivy Creek owned.

Ha - whoops!  Wishful thinking on my part, clearly!  ::)  I had it down correctly in my notes, but I must have gone on autopilot when posting.  Sorry about that!  It has been corrected.

Shanthi, I fixed all your dates.

Everyone should be up to speed now.  I’ve also decided to try something different and have set all my boys to “no stallion owner approval needed” for the rest of their open bookings.  More boys + less mares at Ivy Creek = lots more public bookings.  I will continue to take bookings through here, otherwise the rest will be first come, first served.
