    Confirmed she will visit Kingman next year.

    If Enable has a filly to Kingman, they should name her Wallis Simpson. <whistle>

    Why did they retire Pinatubo, was it injury?

    It sounds so romantic when you put it like that <laugh> we have to be careful here, as if I said Cyclonic was to visit Kingman next year it would be with much different intentions, at least I would hope that it would be.

    Enable deserves a long and happy retirement now, she was a super horse at her best, may she enjoy her frolics running around the grassy green fields on summer days.

    Apparently not, but they tend to be very secretive about these things!

    PNkt can you give a view on the fact that she has Saddler's Wells on both sides of her pedigree? Does she have many suitable stallions with her pedigree?

    It does limit her, but there are outcrosses available, Kingman and Dubawi being the two obvious choices in the UK. They said in a recent article that they would avoid sprinters for her as Juddmonte like to breed to a family’s strengths - in this case middle distance.

    I’d imagine Lope de Vega would be on the list somewhere, sometime Wonder if they’ll change their mind about sprinters? Must admit I thought Oasis Dream might be her first mating on the basis that there will not be many more Oasis Dreams. But they chose another son of the Green Desert line.
