I could be wrong, but I believe that Lemons Forever is the first Kentucky Oaks winner to be honored as Broodmare of the Year. Quite an honor, and well deserved, too.

It's interesting that Justify's half-brother is by Will Take Charge, because with his hunky size, red coat and big white blaze, IMHO Justify looks a WTC son, and not at all like the usual Scat Daddy.

He has a pretty awesome looking blaze.
As for Stage Magic, she didn't foal until April 8th last year, so she is probably due soon. She definitely looks pregnant in those pics from February at the link.

Jeff Lewis stopped by to check in on his family's HOF and blue hen Serena's Song. Serena opted for a run at the Roses-foregoing the Lilies. The Queen of @DenaliStud is loving life at 26 years young!

Harris Farms announces passing of stakes winner Velvet Mesquite
http://live.drf.com/nuggets/42733-harri ... t-mesquiteVelvet Mesquite, a multiple stakes winner for Harris Farms, was euthanized on Thursday after complications of colic surgery, the farm announced on Saturday.
Velvet Mesquite underwent surgery for colic, but suffered a severe knee injury when she tried to rise after the operation.
"She will be sadly missed," the farm's statement said.
Velvet Mesquite, 8, won 6 of 22 starts and earned $461,946. She won two stakes at Santa Anita and was second in the Grade 3 Sen. Ken Maddy Stakes in 2015.
Velvet Mesquite delivered a foal by California Chrome in March and had been bred back to Clubhouse Ride. The farm said the California Chrome foal is being raised by a nurse mare.

How sad.
I think Harris Farms has had more than their fair share of misfortune in the last few years. They lost the venerable Unusual Heat in 2017, although he was an aged stallion, but also the younger Thorn Song (2014), Heatseeker (2016) and Lucky Pulpit (Dec. 30, 2017).

Felt this needed an airing on Epsom-eve. Balanchine beating Wind In Her Hair in the ‘94 Oaks. The former went on the beat the boys at the Curragh & the latter to become a legendary broodmare in Japan... Hope Godolphin don’t mind me borrowing this special pic from their website!

Thanks for sharing! I remember reading about the race in my copy of Bloodhorse. The 11 yr old me loved the name Wind in Her Hair.
