Thanks PN, are we expecting the first batch of Sea the Stars 2yo's next season? Any news on the foal with Zarkava?
Yes Sea the Stars first two year olds will be out next year. Zarkava's first foal, a filly by Dalakhani, is as yet unnamed and not registered as in training in France.
Anyone want to give me a price for MILESTONE to win the Derby? That Cassydora will be a good dam I think. Makes Milestone a full brother to Earnest Hemingway and I'm sticking to my guns and think he will be much better than shown in the Dante.
A STAR IS BORN (IRE) filly out of Looking Back (IRE) â full sister to Rip Van Winkle WOOOP I loved Rip Van Winkle
If I could pick 1 on pedigree alone, I think I'd have Ruler of The World. Duke Of Marmalade was a great looking horse, and he had the talent to go with it. Which one would appeal most to you PN?
FINN MCCOOL is very interesting. There is a lot of black type in the family so odds are he'll be decent. Topclass, I read in advance of the Dante that pedigree is not on the side of EARNEST HEMINGWAY - 3 fillies under the first few dams have run in the Oaks and every one failed to stay.
