I saw on Sheepish's blog about Medaglia d'Oro that Spun Sugar was bred to him and Heart Of The Storm. Like me, you are probably thinking, who the @%*& is Heart Of The Storm and why would they send a G1SW and mare that they spent $4.5 million for in 2007 to a horse that never won a race?
I don't know either but it has to be one of the strangest things I saw this year. Thoughts?
It's not right. There are other mares named Spun Sugar (obv. registered in other countries). Either it's one of them or it's some kind of weird glitch. I just pulled an Equineline report on our Spun Sugar.
Spun Sugar, 2002 bay mare, by Awesome Again 94 -- Irish Cherry 94,
by Irish Open 84
The following is a list of the foals of Spun Sugar:
2008/02/09 Uqood, ch filly by A.P. Indy 1989
2009/02/15 Aghaany, b filly by Invasor (ARG) 2002
2010/02/20 Unnamed, b filly by Smart Strike 1992
2011 Bred to Medaglia d'Oro 1999
Thank goodness and thanks so much for looking it up!
I sure hope it's a glitch. I noticed that on the Breeders' Cup site that she was listed as going to MDO and Heart of the Storm
Before I pulled that report, I looked to see if the farm where Heart of the Storm stands is near Shadwell. LOL. Was trying to work out whether he could've somehow escaped and found his way to Spun Sugar's pasture or something. Highly unlikely, I know. Even if the farms were adjacent, which they aren't. Not even close
LOL I google mapped both the farms to see if they were close before I asked.Originally Posted by mariasmon
