I wasn't familiar with the dam, where did you see the pics? I would love to look too.

I just went to pedigreequery and looked up the dam's progeny list. Almost all of them have photos.

Look here, http://www.whitehorseproductions.com/pintotbs.html

That site does have her youngest offspring, Blanc Manger, Marble Cake, Buchiko, or her 2014, all white. Her daughter Yukichan has had a bay foal and a white foal.

Wow, I never knew that was on there!

I guess I figured that the "reports" would only be available with a subscription... I have been missing out. Thanks for the link!

(And OMG, looking at the dam it all makes perfect sense now...

Progeny reports are free. Anything else you have to subscribe to get. That's fine by me, though. When I handicap big races, I go back through to see what the tail female line's produced.

Exactly!
They must already be wondering what to wear for the filly's next time out.
Maybe their pants will be spotted next time?

Not the pants, the helmet!

Good for him. Sounds like he was much the best.

Yay for Buchiko and her handler!

How many winners on dirt has King Kamehameha sired?

To date, King Kamehameha has posted 1068 progeny wins with 444 winners in JRA -- 600 wins on turf and 468 wins on dirt.
But I don't know how many dirt winners he has sired.

Looks like they went with the spotted gloves this time!

lurkey mclurker · Sun Feb 01, 2015 3:25 pm

And the hood too, yes? I don't remember it having spots last time... wonder if she has had spotted wraps yet?

Yay Buchiko!

ETA: whoops, nope, she has worn the hood before...

I just love Buchiko! I hope she keeps gunning for that lead.

Buchiko is slated to run in the G3 Tulip Sho 1600m turf at Hanshin on March 7, one of the trial races for the G1 Oka Sho (Japanese 1000 Guineas).
Yutaka Take will pick up the mount.

Buchiko as a foal

tachyon · Tue Mar 03, 2015 11:52 am

Buchiko is set to run in the G3 Tulip Sho, one of the key trial races for the G1 Oka Sho, on Sunday.
Will she do well on the turf?
She may like the dirt better. But her connections want to give her a shot in the Classic trail.
Yutaka Take will pick up the mount.

That must be something to protect her fetlock.
But I don't know what it's called in English...
