First Runner for Princess of Sylmar in Japan

TDN International Editor Kelsey Riley with Princess of Sylmar and her Deep Impact foal at Shadai in 2016

Danon Luster (Jpn) (Deep Impact {Jpn}), the first foal out of 2013 GI Kentucky Oaks winner Princess of Sylmar (Majestic Warrior), has been entered for his career debut in a 2000-meter turf race restricted to first-time starters Sunday at Tokyo Racecourse.

A February foal, the bay colt was bred by Shadai Farm, who purchased the Pennsylvania-bred Princess of Sylmar for a sales-topping $3.1 million at the 2014 Fasig-Tipton November Sale.

Call The Wind won the Prix du Cadran (G1) at Longchamp today. He’s by Frankel out of In Clover, who has produced G1 winners We Are and With You and two listed SWs. I’m pleasantly surprised to see Frankel get a G1 winner over 2 1/2 miles.

Tiz Ella (Tiznow xTemple Street/Street Cry IRE) won the 5th at Keeneland, a 1 1/16-mile MSW full of well-bred 2yo fillies on the dirt. She's a full to Donworth and half to Con Te Partiro.

Faylaq, Danedream’s 2yo colt by Dubawi, finished sixth in his debut at Newmarket today.

It's a bit wild how people always doubted if Frankel could get beyond a mile while he was racing, but his progeny have turned out to be somewhat plodders. Not as many seem to have the same turn of foot as him, but they have a great cruising speed that lets them outlast the competition.

Half-sister? Did you mean half-brother? He is quite striking.

Avie’s Flatter won the Cup and Saucer impressively today at Woodbine. He is a half to SW Avie’s Mineshaft, and 2nd dam is SW Fly for Avie.

About Frankel
If they thought he would throw sprinters, they would breed plodders to him. Sometimes it just be's that way, as my daughter's best friend's kid puts it.

War Film, o/o Film Maker, makes his debut in Race 3 at Keeneland on October 17.

[BaroqueAgain1]

Chasing Yesterday just won the Anoakia Stakes at Santa Anita. The half sister to American Pharoah was very determined running down the leader and getting that win. She may not be big, but she has heart.

I saw on twitter today that Platinum Proof, an unraced son of Keeper Hill by Smart Strike, is living the life As a jumper.
