I guess they didn't pension her. I wonder if they ever will.

And sent to He's Had Enough? That's not exactly high on the sire list for a mare who gave us Point Given, IMO.
If you're going to gamble with a senior mare's life, can't you make it worthwhile? :(

It's just because of common ownership and the mare had moved to Florida.

It's a C rating on True Nicks, and she's what, 24 years old... :roll:

This one is just ??????????? to me. I never heard of the stallion before, I had to look him up. But I forgot she sold for next to nothing at the Keeneland November sale last year, I mean in comparison to what Lael paid for her in 2007.

Edit to add: I guess I had heard of him, I just forgot. He is the sire of Behrniks Bank.

Yeah, the person who bought her also stands Bank Heist. She's been bred to lots of good stallions and produced nothing good. What can this little experiment hurt?

Exactly. I was just confused at first. hahaha I was used to her going to big name stallions.

But Bank Heist isn't a badly bred stallion and has had some success from really limited foals.

It doesn't look like Bank Heist could run much, but maybe he was injured (I have no idea). He has a nice pedigree, that's true.

By the late Maria's Mon, who gave us TWO Kentucky Derby winners before his unfortunate passing at only 14, it looks like Bank Heist provides a bloodline that's not all A.P. Indy or Mr. Prospector. Goes back to Majestic Light, which is kind of cool. And his dam dropped Midnight Lute.
I'd stand him...if I were rich enough to own a breeding farm. :P ;)

Thanks for these- Storm Song is a '94 model- would think this could possibly be the last one
I heard Supercharger is a doll and passes on her great attitude to her babies
Was wondering if Uzziel had been bred- she won the G2 Goldikova in her last race and was unsound after her pick was taken. Hard to believe that Harlington is going to be a Grandfather, time sure does fly.
