Me too.

^^ That's good to hear. Is History in foal? You mentioned she was bred to...Posse right?

No she had her Posse in 2009. We sold the filly to Ken McPeek in September.




History is currently in foal to Langfuhr.

Oh, opps! TBird. How did I forget she already had a foal by Posse...I have her on my list with the rest of the CQ grandbabies. Flashy chestnut for a Posse, btw.

[TBird]

No problem. Sometimes it takes me a minute to get them all sorted out too.

Settle for Medal ('08 c. Medallist x Rehear) is entered in the Nashua (G2) at Aqueduct on Saturday.

[TBird]

I saw Boys at Tosconova galloping this morning at Churchill and he looked great. Fingers crossed for a good performance on Saturday.

[flytothestars]

Cant remember if i saw it somewhere. Is there any photo of CQ's grave?

[Allspice]

^ Yeah there are some but I don't remember where.

[Allspice]

Good start to the day! Soldat ('08 c. War Front x Le Relais) finished second in the Breeder's Cup Juvenile Turf.

[Allspice]

And Boys at Tosconova ('08 c. Officer x Little Bonnet) finished second to Uncle Mo in the Juvenile. Not too bad all told, even though Grand Adventure didn't hit the board.

[TBird]

I think Grand Adenture was victim of his outside post position in that very short, very fast, race.

As for Boys, he ran great a great race. If it wasn't for that buzzsaw he ran into named Uncle Mo, he'd have looked like a hero.

[Allspice]

Boys at Tosconova's dam Little Bonnet just sold for $725,000 at Fasig-Tipton. Wonder who bought her...

UNBRIDLED QUEST by Unbridled's Song x Winter's Quest (by CQ) broke her maiden today in the 12th race at Churchill Downs. She won the maiden special weight by 5 lengths.

[Allspice]

^ Good to hear!

Stakes winner Well Deserved ('07 f. Cactus Ridge x Lodden Blue) is running tomorrow for the first time in over a year.

[TBird]

Juniper Pass, a 3yo colt by Lemon Drop Kid x Child Bride (by CQ) ran 3rd in the G1 Hollywood Derby, beaten by less than half a length.

[Allspice]

^ Juniper Pass ran third in a G1?! Damn...I never would have expected that. Thanks for the update TBird!
