Part of Vintage 2012. This beautiful filly is by leading New York stallion Freud.

Freud was the #2 Sire in New York in 2011. He was the #2 Sire in New York in 2010, the #2 Sire in New York in 2009, the #1 Sire in New York in 2008, and the #3 Sire in New York in 2007. He is the undisputed most consistent and most dominant New York sire over the past half-decade. 8% of Freud’s offspring are stakes winners. According to the Stallion Register Freud was New York's #1 Sire of stakes winners in 2008 and 2009. He was New York's #1 Sire by New York-sired stakes winners and stakes wins in 2010. In 2010 he was New York’s only sire of stakes winners on dirt, turf, and synthetic. He established a new state record with 10 stakes winners in 2010 and he was the only sire of more than 3 Saratoga stakes winners in 2010. In 2011 he was New York’s #1 Sire of stakes winners with 8 and New York’s #1 Sire of New York Breds by earnings. Freud is a full-brother to Giant’s Causeway, the Leading Sire in the World the last two years.

Freud has sired G1 Vosburgh and G2 Smile Sprint winner Giant Ryan. Freud has also sired G1 Prioress and G2 Beaumont winner Franny Freud, G2 Kentucky Cup winner Future Prospect, G1 Hollywood Starlet runner-up Quick Little Miss, and G2 turf W.L. McKnight runner-up Logic Way.

Freud’s sire is the prominent stallion and Breeders’ Cup Juvenile runner-up Storm Cat. Storm Cat has sired #4 national stallion and multiple European champion Giant’s Causeway, Champion 2-Year-Old and Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Filly winner Storm Flag Flying, European Champion 2-Year-Old Hold That Tiger, European Champion 2-Year-Old Aljabr, European Champion and highweight One Cool Cat, multiple G1 winner and highweight Black Minnaloushe, G1 winner and highweight Denebola, G1 winner and highweight Mistle Cat, and Canadian Champion Turf Female Ambitious Cat among many others.

Our filly’s dam’s sire is the legendary Damascus. Damascus is quite possibly one of the most impressive racehorses of all time. On the racetrack Damascus won the Remsen, Bay Shore, Wood Memorial, Preakness, Belmont Stakes, Dwyer, Travers (by 22 lengths), Woodward (by 10 lengths), Jockey Club Gold Cup, Malibu, and Brooklyn among many other stakes races. Overall Damascus won 21 of 32 starts and accumulated over $1.1 million in a day when the Kentucky Derby was a $150,000 race. In today’s dollars Damascus would have accumulated close to $10 million in earnings! As a broodmare sire Damascus’ daughters produced over 150 stakes winners including champions Chilukki, Proskona, Dictator’s Song, Someday Jack, Black Beauty D., Taldari, and El Sultan. Other stakes winners out of his daughters are Coronado’s Quest, Desert Stormer, Marlin, Capades, Boundary, Splendid Spruce, Dixieland Heat, and Shadeed. Damascus’ daughters have also produced leading sire Red Ransom, Sister Dot (dam of champion Dehere), and Dixieland Heat (sire of champion Xtra Heat). As a stallion Damascus sired 71 stakes winners including Honorable Miss, Timeless Moment, Private Account, and champions Lord Durham, Belted Earl, and Damascus Regal among so many others. Many of his stakes winners came from the sire line of Buckpasser.

Our colt's dam, Time for a Buck, is unraced. She has produced 13 foals of racing age of which 9 have won. She produced stakes placed Time to Bluff who is a producer herself. More important, Time for a Buck’s full brother, Festive, is a G3 winner and is G1 placed. Festive won over $366,000 and is now a sire.

Our colt's second dam, Swingtime, by Buckpasser, was the second highweighted filly in England. She won the G3 Diadem and G3 Cork and Orrey. She also ran second in the G3 Prix de Meautry in France. In the United States she won the G2 Beverly Hills Handicap twice and the G2 Santa Maria. She is the dam of sire Festive, winner of the G3 New Orleans Handicap and runner up in the G1 Pegasus Handicap, G3 Salvatore Mile, and G3 Dominion Day Handicap. She also produced stakes placed sire Countertrade and stakes placed Steps among other winners.

Our filly is a very attractive horse. Her conformation is very correct and she vetted well.

She is by the leading New York stallion and a mare that’s by one of the best racehorses and best broodmare sires of all time. There are graded stakes up and down both sides of her pedigree and she has the potential to run on any surface. She's a registered New York-bred and will run on the Belmont/Aqueduct/Saratoga circuit. She's eligible for the New York Breeders’ Futurity, the Lady Fingers Stakes, and the New York Stallion Stakes Series. She will be trained by prominent trainer Rick Violette.

This filly will run for the recently announced $50,000 Maiden Special Weight races in New York in 2012.

All standard training/expenses included through December 31, 2011

Part of Vintage 2011. This exceptional colt is by leading New York stallion Hook and Ladder.

As you’re considering this colt be sure to click the “Video” link under his picture. As physically impressive as he looks in his photo one must see the breeze to fully appreciate this colt’s potential. The rider took him very wide out of the turn which surely cost him a tick or two in the final time, but his motion and stride need to be seen to be appreciated.

On the racetrack Hook and Ladder won the G2 Gulfstream Park Breeders Cup Sprint Handicap, the G3 Mr. Prospector Handicap, ran second in the G2 Forest Hills Handicap, and ran third in the G1 Carter Handicap.

Hook and Ladder was the #3 Third Crop Sire in New York in 2009. He was the 2008 #1 Second Crop Sire in New York and was the 2007 #1 Freshman Sire in New York tripling the progeny earnings of the #2.

Hook and Ladder has sired G3 winning Kentucky Derby contender Big Truck. Hook and Ladder has also sired New York Stallion Stakes winners Spanky Fischbein, Lookin at Her, Like a Rose, Under Serviced, and New York stakes winner Sneakin Up. Hook and Ladder is by leading stallion Dixieland Band. Dixieland Band has sired champions Drum Taps, Check the Band, and Cotton Carnival among numerous other graded stakes winners.

Our colt's dam, Okie Dokie Rosie, has produced 6 foals of racing age of which 5 have won. Of the 5 winners the average number of starts per runner has been 23.6. The dam’s other offspring were sired by stallions such as Ormsby, Cryptoclearance, Gray Raider, and Artax. The point being that even when bred to low-profile stallions of questionable success the dam still consistently produces runners that win and exhibit extraordinary soundness.

Our colt's second dam, Seductive Smile, has produced 6 winners including G2 winning Prospectress, G3 placed Across the Rhine, stakes placed Trick of Ace, and sire Khatef.

Our colt's third dam, Exit Smiling, has produced 6 winners including G3 winner and G1 placed sire Don Roberto, G1 winner and sire Nizon, G3 winner Lord Balmerino, G1 placed sire Jumbo Hirt, and sire River Smile.

Our colt's fourth dam, Chandelier, has produced 7 winners including champion Crocket (GB) and stakes winner Crystal Light.

This colt worked a strong quarter in 21.2. He showed power down the lane as he was striding out past the wire despite working a quarter. He’s got tremendous reach and a fluid motion. He did it the right way, totally on his own, as the rider never used the stick.

He’s a big, very attractive horse with plenty of leg. His conformation is very correct and he vetted well. Trainer Linda Rice says that Hook and Ladders are win-early types and her goal is to have this colt ready for a debut as a 2-year-old.

He’s a B+ nick.

This colt is by one of the leading New York stallions of his class and a mare that consistently produces runners that win and display exceptional soundness. There are graded stakes up and down both sides of his pedigree and he has the potential to be any kind of horse. He's a registered New York-bred and will run on the Belmont/Aqueduct/Saratoga circuit. He's eligible for the New York Breeders Futurity, the Aspirant Stakes, the New York Stallion Stakes Series, the NATC Futurity, the OBS Championship Series, and The Breeders Cup. He is trained by 23% winning (and 2009 Saratoga leading) trainer Linda Rice.

This colt will run for the recently announced $50,000 Maiden Special Weight races in New York in 2012.
