Since all my foals for this year have been born. (finally lol) I thought I’d go ahead and post this to see who everybody’s got coming up.
Arabic was bred to first time sire High Chances. This foal is first for Arabic who’s unraced but High Chances is an FFCh. and out of Reine-de-Course mare Second Chance. This foal should be a pretty nice one to watch. Due Jan. 2nd.
Dark Love was bred to Highland Laird, the sire of High Chances. Dark Love has an SW and a MSW so this pairing could be a pretty nice one. Due Feb. 7th.
Deadly Game went to see Highland Wizard and the resulting foal should be a grand baby. What’s It Worth, Patriot Games and Highland Sorceress all in there together. Due Apr. 8th.
Lil Miss Lucky was originally scheduled to meet up with Nightfight but it didn’t work out so Lucky went to visit with Count Me In. Count won the Juvenile and Breeders’ stakes series at two and Lucky’s unraced and pretty uproven with her first having been born this year. Due to foal May 5th.
Royalle, my Go For Dash daughter has been bred the past two years to first time sires with both resulting foals being fillies. This year I branched out and bred her to second year sire Ring of Fire. Ring of Fire’s probably best racing year when he was four although he did win the Breeders’ Cup Mile at three. Go For Dash has sired Gotta Go and Devil His Due both MSWs and Ring of Fire has Cross Roads so this foal (hopefully colt) will be totally awesome. Royalle is due April 3rd.
Golden Legend, the first ever broodmare I purchased and the dam of my homebred two year old winner Twin Peaks is happily in foal to I’m Your Angel. Legend’s past three foals were all by iffy studs although all three have sired stakes placers/winners so her foal by Angel is definately the better bred foal. I’m excited to see what the Black Legend/What’s It Worth cross produce. She is due February 2nd.
In Absentia, a mare I purchased from Windward Farms back in 2010 and the dam of MSW Back Roads by Cross Roads was shipped to the court of Witness shortly after the birth of Secretsarebound’s first daughter. Witness is a son of Class Act so this cross should be interesting with In Absentia’s sire being Flash’s Image. Foal is due May 5th.
Shining Spotlight was my auction purchase and she cost a good amount of cash but I think she’ll be worth it. I’ve got a few nice broodmares that were bred by Ireland’s Shamrock Isles who left the game a year or so ago so I was pretty determined to get Spotlight. Her half-brothers include Worth The Wait (who is also the sire of her 2009 daughter) and Rising Storm. She’s now in foal to As You Wish, a first time standing son of Secret of Love and Cross My Heart. Looking forward to Spotlight’s Wish baby. She’s due June 6th.
Whirl It was given to me in the CCL dispersal and boy was I not expecting to get her but I sure am glad I did get the chance. In foal with her possible last foal by top stallion Cross Roads. I say it’s her possible last one because I’m not sure I’ll breed her next year or not she’s been a good broodmare. This cross is dynamic and I’m especially looking to Whirl’s Cross foal. She’s due to foal March 5th.
Thinking of Dreams is one broodmare I purchased from CDS when she was in foal with her yearling Gimme A Shot daughter. That filly went back to CDS and Dream was bred again to Gimme A Shot with another filly. After Dream’s second Shot daughter was born I waited a while and then bred her to Highland Bandit. Her foal will be one of several Highland Rogue related babies I see next year. Due April 1st.
Whirlagirl bred to Prince of Wonder. Foal is due May 8th.
Strobe Light is one mare I raced myself after claiming her and then retired her just before breeding season ended and bred her to Magic Glory which resulted in a black colt (Disco Ball). She would have carried a What’s It Worth foal but he was retired and I sent her to visit his SC stakes winning FFCh. son Kermit. Strobe is due to foal July 1st, the same day Disco was born.
Flaming Possibility was bred to Secretsarebound and is due April 3rd.
Last Fling is in foal to My Lucky Day and due to foal January 5th.
