Hope he's a nice one.

Maiden Winner Hofburg Joins Florida Derby Cast
https://www.bloodhorse.com/horse-racing ... derby-cast

By Tapit out of the Touch Gold mare Soothing Touch, Hofburg is a half brother to multiple grade 1 winner Emollient.

Soothing Touch’s 2018 colt by American Pharoah, American Patrol, won an AOC at Delaware Park today by 9 3/4L.

Shamrock Hill (2017. m. Kizuna x G1W Laragh, by Tapit) won the G3 Mermaid Stakes in Japan.

Freccia (2015. h. Dansili x SW Via Medici, by Medicean) won the Tamagawa Stakes. He is half to Admire Mars.

You'resothrilling, a full sister to Giant’s Causeway, produced another GSW when Joan of Arc (Galileo) won the Irish 1000 Guineas Trial (G3) at Leopardstown. The filly is a full sister to G1 winners Gleneagles, Marvellous, and Happily. I think she is You’resothrilling’s sixth SW.

Joan of Arc finished a close second in the Irish 1000 Guineas. The winner, Empress Josephine (Galileo - Lillie Langtry), is a full sister to multiple champion and classic winner Minding.

Joan of Arc won the Prix de Diane (G1) today, becoming her dam’s fourth G1 winner and third classic winner.

Bred in Kentucky, Vigilantes Way is out of the graded stakes-placed Unbridled mare Salute, a daughter of champion and multiple grade 1 producer Personal Ensign. Salute is also the dam of grade 1 winner and sire Mr Speaker, grade 3 winner Fire Away, and grade 3-placed Snap Decision.

So happy about this! BH should give her 1/2 bro Fire Away credit for being a G2 winner over hurdles, in addition to his flat G3 placing, though.

Willow, 2018 filly by American Pharoah - Peeping Fawn, by Danehill won the listed Irish Stallion Farms EBF Naas Oaks Trial. Peeping Fawn was a MG1SW. She has produced SW/G1Sp September and G2Spw Sir John Hawkins. I think she is pointing to the Irish Oaks for her next start.

There was a fantastic group in a maiden 2yof race at the Curragh earlier today. I had tried to post about it early this morning but the forum was down: https://www.thoroughbreddailynews.com/f ... ne-debuts/

Flash Magic(bay filly by pioneerof the Nile out of glinda the good) broke her maiden yesterday by five and a half lengths for Steve Asmussen and stonestreet

[HB1994]

One that I missed:

Also at Ellis over the weekend, Navratilova (Medaglia d'Oro x Centre Court) broke her maiden sprinting on turf.

She finished third today in the TVG Limestone Turf Sprint Stakes at KEE.

Navratilova won the Tepin S at Churchill today.

Fire Away won his first G1 steeplechase today

I thought Fire Away was at stud in South Africa.

I thought Fire Away was at stud in South Africa.

He is, assume just a mistype above since its actually Snap Decision, who won the G1 Iroquois today. Who is a 1/2 brother to Fire Away, Mr. Speaker and Vigilante's Way.

[BaroqueAgain1]

Galawi [IRE] (Dubawi x Galikova, Galileo half sister of Goldikova) just won the 3rd at Belmont, a 10-furlong MSW for 3yo+up on the inner turf. He was far back but finished with something like a 22-second final quarter to pass the field with a flourish. It wasn't a big field, but it was full of nicely-bred horses.

Yep, my bad. I'm still getting those two mixed up after all this time

Thanks for the update- hope he finds a job to do. He was a big good looking horse. Yes I am sure they regret not taking the money now but oh well. Maybe a sport horse?

Thanks- they really let him get heavy. Wonder what they are asking for him? What disciplines can he be trained for? Hope he finds a soft landing. Surprised the Gunthers aren’t handling this sale?
