How true! :D

Cesario(JPN) (Special Week) is one of the greatest mares of all time in Japan. :D
Epiphaneia has been doing super at stud already siring the Triple Crown for Fillies winner Daring Tact and the Horse of the Year Efforia.
Leotes is becoming a red hot sire and I have little doubt Saturnalia will see major success.
I wonder if Authority will become a stallion, too, even if he is inbred to Sunday Silence and might have some difficulty in finding mares in the domestic market.

Cesario was a tremendous mare and I have admired her since her stunning American Oaks win.

I think Authority is not only a promising racehorse with an outstanding pedigree, but he is also a very lovely and correct individual.

Yes!
It’s probably because he is a son of Orfevre. :lol:

He is slated to run in the Dubai Sheema Classic next.
Lemaire will retain the mount.

Agnes Gold's US G1 winners Ivar(BRZ)(H6) and In Love(BRZ)(G6) resumed training recently.

Ivar
The Thoroughbred Center 3/5/2022 Dirt 3F 37.80 Breezing 6/27

In Love
The Thoroughbred Center 3/5/2022 Dirt 4F 49.40 Breezing 15/53

So it looks like Ivar's third place finish in the BC Mile last year was not good enough to find his place at stud once again.
I strongly hope that he will be able to improve his resume this year.
Good Luck!!

I now suspect that the grandson of Hat Trick(JPN) will become a stallion when he retires from racing, while making King David(USA) a major stallion in Turkey.
He is a very good horse!! :D

"Before, Japanese horses were not good enough to compete with foreign horses but we invested huge amounts to buy broodmares and stallions," Yoshida said. "Since Sunday Silence – this horse [Crown Pride] traces into his line – things have changed.

That was some field Gran Alegria beat. As for Scarlet Color... I wonder to whom they will send the daughter of Victoire Pisa out of a War Emblem mare. :)
I'm very curious! :D

I wonder if Scarlet Color will be bred to various stallions during her stay in the US.
Her owner Koji Maeda had sent his G1 winning mare Heavenly Romance(JPN)(by Sunday Silence) to the US to be bred to Smart Strike, Tapit, Distorted Humor, Awesome Again and Mendelssohn.
The cross with Tapit saw success in Lani(USA).
Scarlet Color will visit American Pharoah(USA)!! 8-)

Koji Maeda will send Anastasio(JPN)(by Daiwa Major, 1/2 to Contrail) to Not This Time(USA), too.
https://www.jbis.jp/horse/0001221783/
Are there any updates on Scarlet Color? Did she have any foals in the USA? Did she go back to Japan?

She retired at the end of 2020 and was bred for the first time in 2021, so 2022 was her first foal. I just looked to see if she had a foal. No idea if the owner shares pics or not. Her owner keeps some mares in Kentucky but usually sends the foals to Japan as yearlings.
