What a wonderful thing to do! Sure wish I lived closer.

From Scott Heider: Taris is confirmed in foal to Curlin and Savings Account is in foal to Pioneerof The Nile.

Fan Dii Na(JPN) as a yearling (photo taken in 2015) <--- she was already biiiig!!!!

Tanigawa Bokujo

In regard to Fan Dii Na's tilt at the Satsuki Sho, Mr Takahide Tanigawa, breeder of Fan Dii Na, said modestly;
'' It's not that we want her to take on the boys (in the Satsuki Sho). We just feel it difficult to make her start in the Oka Sho in 3 weeks after the Flower Cup. (Satsuki Sho will be run in 4 weeks, that's the reason why we send her to the Satsuki Sho) . ''

Tanigawa Bokujo (Tanigawa Stud) is an old stud farm in Japan.
Shinzan(JPN), a triple crown winner and arguably the most respected thoroughbred of all-time in Japan, stood at Tanigawa Bokujo.

Drat FB, I just see the "Attachment Unavailable" post there from yesterday. Glad all is good with your husband now. I'm almost through a health scare of my own that's been interfering with my life with horses, on-line and in real life, so I know how that goes.

Thanks, and I didnt know that "attachment unavailble" was still happening. I know that some have been having problems with that.

Who would you choose for Tepin's first cover next year?

Galileo seems like an obvious choice. A lot may depend on whether or not she is sold.

She gets an A on Truenicks with Flintshire for what it's worth. I'd love to see her with Sea the Stars actually, which might be a little radical as opposed to Galileo or Frankel.
She's also a granddaughter of Storm Cat which seems to do unusually well with Pioneerof the Nile

Certainly she's got a lot of options.
