Tara's Tango is an interesting horse. When she broke her maiden she was fast - broke a record - and now she has stuck around to be a closer, and they don't consider her fast. Nice to see US get a nice one like her in his final few crops.Starine wrote:Sparkman: Tara's Tango adds to Grade 1 tally for Unbridled's Song

After seeing Hakassan today, he's shot up to one of my favorite freshman sires. I could stare at him for days.

Ice Box is so sooty! What a hunk.
Not a wholesome trottin' race, no, but a race where they sit down right on the horse!
Like to see some stuck-up jockey boy sittin' on Dan Patch? Make your blood boil? Well, I should say!

Lucky Pulpit team hoping for bump in business
http://www.drf.com/news/lucky-pulpit-te ... p-businessHarris Farms should benefit from California Chrome’s win. The farm stands Lucky Pulpit, California Chrome’s sire, for $7,500. Lucky Pulpit stood for $2,500 before California Chrome’s rise to prominence in 2014. For the 2015 breeding season, the fee was $10,000, but support dropped from mare owners, and the fee was lowered for the current breeding season.
In 2015, Lucky Pulpit was bred to 63 mares, according to Jockey Club statistics, a figure that the stallion’s backers hope will rise to closer to 80 for the current breeding season. Lucky Pulpit is owned by Larry and Marianne Williams of Idaho.
“We have the sire of the highest money-winning Thoroughbred,” said Dan Kiser, racing manager for the Williamses. “Hopefully, we’ll get a spike out of this; closer to 80 would be great. I think we’re on the path for that.”

Whether 63 or 80, that still seems a pretty respectable number for a horse who has been basically a regional stallion.
I hope that he gets some good runners from his recent crops, and that 'Chrome doesn't turn out to be a complete outlier for Lucky Pulpit.
