Repole Stable is happy to announce we made our first purchase in Japan!

We bought this filly by champion Orfevre out of my former multiple graded stakes winning mare Unlimited Budget for 33 million yen at the Chiba Thoroughbred Sale.

Will this filly ship to the US????

Thank you, Starine!
You made my day.

Some of Mr Repole's comments on bloodhorse also caught my eyes.

Repole said the Chiba sale purchase was facilitated by Pat Cummings and Alex Solis II.

"I've been so impressed with the Japanese breed," Repole told BloodHorse. "I actually bought some Deep Impact mares last year. Obviously I raced the mare Unlimited Budget, so that was a big factor. I also like the sire."

Repole said he has no problem with the Japanese buying American mares, "as long as we have the ability to buy mares in Japan for the U.S."

"I would love to trade some of my mares for some Japanese mares. I want to buy more Japanese horses.

I would like to believe that this is just the beginning, haha!

And I can't to wait to see this Orfevre filly race in the US!!!

Stuart S Janney III adds his breeding stock to Keeneland November sale.

https://www.bloodhorse.com/horse-racing ... -keeneland

If the name sounds familiar..

He was introduced to racing through his parents, Stuart and Barbara, who bred and owned the beloved filly Ruffian, a Racing Hall of Famer who was foaled at Claiborne and now is buried there, and such horses as grade 2 winner and sire Icecapade and grade 1 winner and sire Private Terms. For many years, the Janney family has boarded mares at Claiborne.

the end of an era...

I know he isnt popular, but the head of the Jockey Club getting out of the game is not a good sign of the times. Not to mention big families like the Phipps/Janneys involvement coming to an end after 60-70 years.

It really is. He did say he plans on racing the horses he still has in training, as well as the yearlings and weanlings when they reach racing age.

"The horses I have in training and the young horses coming up figure to carry me along for several more years in racing, and I could even buy some young horses or go in as a partner," said Janney, a lifelong owner and breeder.

But oh man, did it make my stomach twist a little reading the news.

Makes me shed a tear. I loved that age of racing.
