Is that Race The Wild Wind's last foal, she has to be getting up there in age? I remember her when she raced, always thought she had a great name.

A Shin Spartan(USA), 2011C. Zensational(USA) x Lady Tak(USA), scored his second career victory tying the course record (1:19.9) in Kyoto 7R 1400m turf allowance on May 17th.
4-2-0-1.

A Shin Spartan: #6 horse


Grandezza(JPN), 2009H. Agnes Tachyon(JPN) x Marbye(IRE), won in the Kyoto 11R Miyakooji Stakes 1800m turf smashing the course record as well as the country record on May 17th, becoming the first horse ever to cover 1800m turf in 1:43 and change in Japan.... wow!... even if Kyoto turf seems to have been too firm and too fast this year.
The beaten favorite in the Satsuki Sho (Japanese 2000 Guineas) sustained a tendon injury after the Derby in 2012. And this was his first win in more than two years.
10-4-1-1.

Hillaby (Distorted Humor x Sealy Hill) broke her maiden in R7 at WB by almost 6 lengths, making it look easy. This was her 3rd start.

La Madrina (1/2 to El Padrino, Verrazano) was 3rd in an ALW (R6) at Bel, beaten 3 lengths.

Sam-Son Farm is off to a really good start at Woodbine this year.

Speightsong (1/2 to Up With the Birds) won the Queenston S. easily on Saturday, May 17th.
And, first time starter Shaft of Light just broke his maiden today. From the No Class female family, he is out of Silver Adventure, a full sister to MGSW Silver Ticket.

Haha. Yep, Pierce horses wear nasal strips. Shaft of Light looks like a good one, they don't usually send them out to win like that first time.
