Looking through my local 2yo sale and I find a colt who has Serena's Song as his 3rd dam. Though my only knowledge of her is through this forum!

I looked it up and yes the granddaughter of Serena's Song resides at Westbury Stud in New Zealand but unfortunately keeps visiting Swiss Ace (yuck) Her 8yo son El Toranado races in Australia he has had 66 starts for 11 wins, 11 seconds, & 7 thirds

IMHO Swiss Ace (Secret Savings) is a very average stallion and most of his foals seem to take after the mare. He might have a high winners to runners ratio but they rarely have a second win.
From 5 racing crops he only has one or two stakeswinners and has served about 100 mares each year. Westbury have 5 other stallions that this mare could visit instead of visiting Swiss Ace the past 4 years in a row. #GiveHerAChance

The great Makybe Diva with her Written Tycoon foal. The three time Melbourne Cup winner & Cox Plate heroine is now 19 years old and in top nick. Lovely to see the champion mare happy, well and relaxed

Thank you for posting that lovely photo. She looks quite pleased with herself and her little one is quite inquisitive.

My guess is that one of her co-owners will sign the ticket on Abel Tasman. Both have broodmares and they can outbid others because they're dissolving the partnership. But we'll see.

I'd like Clearsky to get here but China Horse Club probably has more cha-ching in the bank.Sparrow Castle wrote: ↑Tue Nov 27, 2018 8:02 pm My guess is that one of her co-owners will sign the ticket on Abel Tasman.
