She is entered in the Keeneland November Sale as a racing or broodmare prospect. She is one of my favorites as well.CoronadosQuest wrote: ↑Mon Oct 28, 2024 11:11 amOh wow, I thought she was being entered in one of the November sales but that would be amazing to see her next year! I love her

Yeah I have no idea, I read a DRF article that said she might come back, and then a Bloodhorse article where her connections talk about how sad they are to retire her. So... not sure anybody knows anything!CoronadosQuest wrote: ↑Mon Oct 28, 2024 11:11 amOh wow, I thought she was being entered in one of the November sales but that would be amazing to see her next year!

I saw an article where Krikorian was trying to decide if he was going to sell her or withdraw her to keep for his own broodmare band.Tessablue wrote: ↑Mon Oct 28, 2024 2:48 pmYeah I have no idea, I read a DRF article that said she might come back, and then a Bloodhorse article where her connections talk about how sad they are to retire her.

War Like Goddess was an RNA so I wonder if that means she'll race on.

I'm surprised Australia wanted a stayer mare. Someone's trying to breed a Melbourne Cup winner.

I wonder who she would be bred to. I'm not too familiar with Australian stallions.

Yuesheng Zhang doesn't really seem to care if it's a stayer or sprinter. He wants G1 winning mares on turf, period. He has purchased over 60 individual Gr.1 winners or producers in the last couple years.othybat_99 wrote: ↑Fri Nov 08, 2024 10:58 amI wonder who she would be bred to.

In terms of what stallions will she go to, I assume it will be one of these:

Written Tycoon is one of the best sires in Australia, but there are also a couple of younger stallions, like Lucky Vega, that Zhang has supported with top mares.

Yulong's freshman stallion Alabama Express recently got his first G1W and has done well so far. That's also an option.

Perfect Trip Rolls Out Red Carpet for Mrs. Astor

The filly's name and the stakes race immediately made me think of the actress Mary Astor (1906 - 1987). She is best known for her role in The Maltese Falcon (1941).

The big return of Arrogate daughter Accuracy:
https://www.drf.com/news/formidable-man ... ainer-saysMcCarthy had a big final weekend of the Del Mar autumn meeting. On Friday, the 3-year-old filly Accuracy won her debut against winners in an allowance race at a mile. Ridden by Rispoli, Accuracy led throughout and pulled clear late to win by 7 1/4 lengths as the 1-10 favorite. She was timed in 1:35.85 and earned an exceptional Beyer Speed Figure of 95.
It was not a career-best figure. Accuracy won a maiden race at 1 1/16 miles at Santa Anita by 15 lengths on Oct. 19, earning a figure of 107.
The two runaway wins has left McCarthy contemplating a start for Accuracy in the Grade 1 La Brea Stakes for 3-year-old fillies at seven furlongs at Santa Anita on Dec. 26.
Accuracy was third in her only start in a sprint, her career debut in a maiden race at 6 1/2 furlongs at Del Mar in early August.
“Do we back up to seven-eighths?” McCarthy said. “You have to think about it. She’s naturally fast. We’ll see what the next few weeks bring.”
Accuracy, by Arrogate, races for Mike Repole. She has won 2 of 4 starts and earned $83,400.
