As we announced earlier in the year, we have very aggressive plans for 2008 including expanding our stable to the west coast and stepping up the quality of our runners. True to our word we, for the first time, attended a Select Sale and acquired some very impressive horses that are visually stunning and have pedigrees to match. These Vintage 2008 horses, being graduates of a Select Sale, all have very correct conformation as would be expected. They all worked well, vetted well, and have great attitudes. Our trainers have taken 10% ownership in each horse that they will train. Please peruse these first members of our Vintage 2008. We believe this to clearly be the best group of runners we’ve ever had the pleasure to offer.

Exciting racing partnership opportunities available starting as low as $3,960 as outlined below.
| Forest Wildcat Filly - Part of Vintage 2008. This lovely filly is by top stallion Forest Wildcat and a G3 winning and G3 placed mare. Forest Wildcat is a leading stallion and is currently ranked 16 on the national sire list. He's already produced numerous graded stakes winners and is producing stakes winners per foal at an astounding 8.3% rate. Forest Wildcat is by leading stallion Storm Cat. Our filly's dam, Scratch Paper, is a G3 winning and G3 placed mare who's already produced one stakes placed runner. Scratch Paper is by Notebook, who's currently listed on the national broodmare sire list.
This filly lit up the training track working an eighth in 10 flat on a day when the bullet went to another Forest Wildcat filly in 9.4. She's a fluid mover who does it all the right way with her head down and a nice extended reach. She galloped out the quarter in 21.2 and the three eighths in 34.4. She's very correct from a conformation standpoint. Ron Ellis will be the first to admit that he's extremely picky when it comes to conformation and this filly is no exception. She vetted clean as a whistle and her knees are closed meaning that she's mature enough to go on with her training. We expect that she'll be to the races in a short period of time as Ron likes to get them going. For those of you that believe in nicks, sons of Storm Cat bred to Notebook mares have produced a rock-solid 10% stakes winners and 5% graded stakes winners. As you can see we have every intention of making our presence known early on the California racing scene. She’s the first member of our California invasion and she’s poised to make a lot of noise on the southern California racing circuit. She's a registered Florida-bred and will run on the Santa Anita/Hollywood Park/Del Mar circuit. She's eligible for the Sunshine Millions and The Breeders Cup. She'll be trained by 20% winning trainer Ron Ellis. All standard training included through December 31, 2008 Click for price Less than 2 shares remaining |
