Wish they listed the dams!

[Northport]

The dams are listed, they are bolded. Since the horses are still yearlings they don't have their own names yet so they go by their mother's names and the year they were born, ie. Stacelita 2014

1. Kizuna, 5yo h, out of Catequil (Storm Cat), retired due to a tendon injury. Where he stands is still to be decided.

He has to be standing at Shadai, right?? I remember leading up to and during his time in Paris, his owner was apparently turning down offers left right and centre, from Godolphin to Qatar Racing. He said that the horse would never be for sale as a race horse or as a stallion, as he was destined for Shadai.

He said that the horse would never be for sale as a race horse or as a stallion, as he was destined for Shadai.

As you wrote, it is true that there were some offers for him at that time, and Shadai asked Mr Maeda, the representative of North Hills Co Ltd, the breeder and also virtual owner of the horse, not to sell him to anywhere except their stallion station.

At 4, he suffered a fracture in Tenno Sho spring (3200m) which turned out to have been nearly fatal as a race horse, and took about 10 months for him to be back on the track. At 5 after having recovered, he was raced three times and couldn't fulfill his potential with no race won, and thus had been preparing for Tenno Sho (2000m) this autumn for a redemption. It was then when his injury was found.

Where he will stand is not clear at the moment with no official announcement provided, so what might be said of it is just rumors and guesses. That said, the Shadai Stallion Station is now full of new stallions, possibly no room for him, depending on the conditions to be agreed with.

Does anyone have news about Danedream's filly? I thought they were going to sell her at the Tattersalls but couldn't find her in the catalogue. Did they decide to keep her?

She looks promising, especially at longer distances.

When looking at the video of Persi's Best, who is pretty awesome coming from so far back, I came across this video, not sure who it is, only translates into "the relaxation to senra". There is another of this one sleeping as well. Looks like a bit older horse to me but I have no clue who it might be. Would anybody know? Thanks.

this is my best guess, as my google translate on chrome translated it to tosunra, as opposed to 'to senra'.

He looks very much like his sire in the vid that Private Thoughts linked... almost had me fooled for a minute.

[Private Thoughts]

Thank you for all the help. He is a cutie and apparently somebody is a big fan because there are alot of short videos of him, several of him snoring away in his paddock.
