Chrome had his first winner, Sunkar Time ( out of Kiosk), in Russia at 1400m. The sassy foal has grown into a spunky two year old based on a video on the Chrome in Japan facebook.

Cilla was entered to run today, August 5, 2020. It is currently 9:22 PM in Delaware.

Racing at Delaware was cancelled today due to rain from the tropical storm/hurricane.

I assume Payster's race was cancelled or he scratched.

Cal Fragrance finished third in her race at Sapporo.

She's So Cali finished sixth.

Payster was scratched, which was not surprising as it was just a week after his first race. Apparently, he was listed as a first time gelding so I guess they ended up gelding instead or running.

Cilla becomes Chrome's first winner in US as she takes the MSW at Delaware. Her first race was a bit of a key race as all the first three home have now won and Hipnotizada did not run badly in the stakes at Ellis this past weekend.

Interestingly, the mare Sittin at the Bar adds both another Numbered Account strain via Mutakddim as well as another Swaps strain (who is also Numbered Account's BM sire) via Ortalan to the well- known Chrome's connections.

Love seeing Swaps in a pedigree--a very underrated horse of extreme brilliance if not lasting pedigree influence,

Ortalans are tiny French larks caught to eat whole, :-( Pass.
I ran marathons. I saw the Taj Mahal by Moonlight. I drove Highway 1 in a convertible. I petted Zenyatta.

His male line might not continue on but he is in a ton of horses pedigrees. Including both Europe and the US's current leading stallions, Dubawi and Into Mischief.

He will be in pedigrees for a while because he had an absolute knack for getting daughters who produce blue hen mares:
Soaring - Miss Swapsco- Ballade- Glorious Song
- Far Beyond - Battle Creek Girl and Wings of Grace
- Pi Phi Gal - Ameriflora
Baracala - Maximova
Chandelle- Oh So Fair- Oh So Sharp
Change Water- Fall Aspen
- Paintbrush- eventually gets you to Dixie Union via She's Tops
Director - GranBonheur- Felicita- Take Charge Lady
Intriguing - Numbered Account
- Playmate
Likely Swap- Likely Exchange- Dream Deal
Lovely Morning- Resolver
Ortalan - Edee's Image- Image of Reality- Toussaud

He also shows up as the BM sire of Best Turn quite often

Heliochrome was a gutsy second in Del Mar R5 just now, beaten just a whisker.
