Stallion News

Pat On the Back covered 32 mares with 29 pronounced in foal.

We also lost sensational broodmares like Goldikova, Cesario and Kind.
Horrible year.

And Praise...

I could deal with with losing Malibu Moon, as heartbreaking as it was and is, because he was 24 and lived a long life. Bernardini killed me....it still does

[BaroqueAgain1]

At least Praise got to live to 27. We lost far too many still-young mares and stallions this year.

And I’m assuming Jackie’s Warrior… about 30 seconds after he crosses the finish line in the Dirt Mile

Drefong(USA)(Gio Ponti) sired his first group winner from his first crop, when his 2yo colt Geoglyph(JPN) [o/o Aromatico(JPN) by King Kamehameha(JPN)], won impressively under Christophe Lemaire the G3 Sapporo Nisai Stakes 1800m turf at Sapporo on Sep 4th 2020.
Sodashi had won this race last year.

CILLA is the first graded stakes winner for California Chrome that "counts!" She won the G2 Prioress!

[BaroqueAgain1]

That was a brave race by Cilla, as she dueled like her daddy with the favorite, Souper Sensational, and surged to win.

[tachyon]

She really fought back gamely!

There’s a rumor going around that Maximum Security died from colic today. Guess we’ll see if it ends up being true

[BaroqueAgain1]

I hope that is an unfounded rumor.
That poor horse has had enough bad luck in his life; this would be cruel.

I know I really hope it’s untrue since he’s been through a lot already including a colic episode during his 3 year old year. Someone in a group shared a screen shot announcing his death from Coolmore’s website, but when I go to look for it, I can’t find it.

[CorridorZ75]

I feel for the horse if true. Chewed up and spit out by the program.

I think it is true. I went onto FB to check out this conversation - people were skeptical, of course. I have a photo of an article the lady posted, but I don’t know how to post it here. If you search for Debby Kendall on FB, you’ll see the conversation...

Poor horse...poor baby

I keep checking the racing news sites (DRF News & Notes, Paulick [his twitter often provides news], Bloodhorse), but there is nothing about Max...yet.

I was thinking it was a hoax before...then I thought not, then I was doubting again...but my friend says she received good news about him and is just waiting for confirmation

[BaroqueAgain1]

If the news is fake, someone chose to try to pass a believable story, since the colt has suffered from colic before.

That’s good to hear!! I can’t stand people that start these rumors
