Amendment / FILLY

Sire: Constitution   |   Dam: Mo's Love   |   Dam Sire: Uncle Mo

YOB: 2021   |   Bred: Kentucky  

Amendment Update

This attractive filly is loaded with genetic power on both top and bottom of her page. She is the second foal out of the young Uncle Mo mare Mo’s Love. Mo’s Love was a winner on dirt going 6.5F and is from the female family of former Leading Sire and Broodmare Sire Unbridled’s Song.

Constitution, by emerging sire of sires Tapit, is one of the hottest young stallions in North America. His 2022 stud fee was $85,000, and with the demand for his services outweighing the supply by almost 3-to-1, his 2023 stud fee is $110,000. Over the summer, a Constitution colt sold for $1.2 million at the Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Sale.

On the track, Constitution displayed sprinters’ speed, and the ability to carry that speed over a distance of ground was on display as he won the Florida Derby (G1) going 9F. Another interesting pedigree note is that this filly is inbred to the sensational Triple Crown winner, Seattle Slow (5 x4) through Pulpit and Capote. This mating has the ability to produce a horse that should have speed and be able to carry it around two turns.

This filly is training daily at Ellis Park, preparing for a fall debut.

Ghostrider / FILLY

Sire: Ghostzapper   |   Dam: True Elegance   |   Dam Sire: Distorted Humor

YOB: 2021   |   Bred: Kentucky  

Ghostrider Update

This filly is a half-sibling to two of racing age, including a winning half-sister by Kitten’s Joy. She also is a half-sibling to a colt by Kentucky Derby (G1) winner, Authentic, that was born in 2022.

The second dam, Sealy Hill, was named Horse of the Year and Champion in Canada. She has produced the high-class performers Hillaby, Champion Sprinter in Canada, and Cambier Parc (G1), amongst others, and both these daughters are being bred to some of the top stallions, such as Into Mischief, Uncle Mo, Tapit, Medaglia d’Oro, and Nyquist. INTO This already strong pedigree has potential to expand.

Former Horse of the Year Ghostzapper is the sire of this filly. He was a versatile racehorse and considered one of the best of his generation. He won 9-of- 11-lifetime starts and was talented enough to win the Vosburgh (G1) going 6.5F as a 3YO, and the 10F Breeders’ Cup Classic (G1) at age 4. To date, he has produced six Champions, nearly 50 graded stakes winners, and nearly 100 stakes winners.

This filly is in Ocala and will head to Cherie DeVaux over the summer.

Polyrhythmic / FILLY

Sire: Kantharos   |   Dam: Jazzminegem   |   Dam Sire: Mineshaft

YOB: 2021   |   Bred: Kentucky  

Polyrhythmic Update

This classy-looking filly is out of the Mineshaft mare, Jazzminegem. On the track, Jazzminegem was in the money 8-of-9 lifetime starts. She excelled at 6F and was 3rd in her only attempt against stakes horses.

By the strong broodmare sire Mineshaft, Jazzminegem is the dam of three registered foals of racing age, with three to race and two winners, including the 3-year-old of 2022, Mi Negrita who was second behind the top filly and multiple graded stakes winner, Kathleen O. in the Cash Run S. at Gulfstream Park.

This filly hails from the family of the hard-knocking multiple graded stakes winner Notacatbutallama (G3), winner of Saratoga’s National Museum of Racing Hall of Fame S. (G3) and Belmont Park’s Hill Prince S. (G3).

Being by the fast sire Kantharos this filly should possess speed. Top sprinters and Grade 1 winners World of Trouble (G1) and X Y Jet (G1) are both by Kantharos. He stands in Kentucky alongside Curlin at Hill ‘n’ Dale Farm. Kantharos was a top 2-year-old during his racing career, going undefeated in three starts that included victories in the Saratoga Special (G2) and the Bashford Manor S. (G3).

Polyrhythmic is on a regular breeze schedule at Keeneland,

Auraculous / FILLY

Sire: Uncle Mo   |   Dam: Bonita Bay   |   Dam Sire: Bernardini

YOB: 2021   |   Bred: Kentucky  

Auraculous Update

This filly is the first foal out of the young mare Bonita Bay by Bernardini. On the track, Bonita Bay was placed at 3, but her true potential and value may be as a broodmare. She is by the current #1 Broodmare sire in North America with 15 stakes winners that have earnings over $26 million, and her broodmare sire, Storm Cat, is considered one of the greatest sires of the modern era. At his peak, Storm Cat com-manded a $500,000 stud fee while standing at Overbrook Farm in Kentucky.

She hails from the same family as Champion 2-year-old filly and Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies (G1) winner, Countess Diana (G1).

Uncle Mo, the sire of this racy-looking filly, stands at Ashford Stud in Kentucky and currently is Ranked 6th on the Sires’ List by Progeny Earnings with over $13 million in 2022 earnings. He has sired 11 stakes winners so far this year, including the Belmont Stakes (G1) winner Mo Donegal and top turf sprinter Golden Pal.

On the track, Uncle Mo was undefeated at two with a perfect 3-for-3 record, winning a 6F maiden special weight race, the Champagne S. (G1), and the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile (G1) to earn the Eclipse Award as Champion 2YO Male.

Prodigieux / FILLY

Sire: Uncle Mo   |   Dam: Splashy Kisses   |   Dam Sire: Blame

YOB: 2021   |   Bred: Kentucky  

Prodigieux Update

This filly is the first foal out of the broodmare Splashy Kiss, by Blame. As a racehorse, Splashy Kiss was a 5 3⁄4-length maiden winner at 2 in her second start at Del Mar. She finished second to future Kentucky Oaks (G1) winner Serengeti Empress in the $200,000 Pocahontas S. (G2) at Churchill Downs and then returned to the West Coast as a 3YO to place in the Sweet Life S. (G3). Her sire, Blame, was named Champion Older Male in 2010 and is the only horse to ever defeat the great Zenyatta (in the Breeders’ Cup Classic [G1]).

The filly is a half-sister to a 2022 filly by Volatile, and Splashy Kisses was bred to Mendelssohn for 2023. Sire Uncle Mo stands at Ashford Stud in Kentucky and currently is Ranked 6th on the Sires’ List by Progeny Earnings with over $13 million in 2022 earnings. He has sired 11 stakes winners so far this year, including the Belmont Stakes (G1) winner Mo Donegal and top turf sprinter Golden Pal.

On the track, Uncle Mo was undefeated at two with a perfect 3-for-3 record, winning a 6F maiden special weight race, the Champagne S. (G1), and the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile (G1) to earn the Eclipse Award as Champion 2YO Male.

She is a well-balanced filly with a sharp eye and elegant head. Her scope and athletic walk should provide her the opportunity to handle a route of ground but also have speed to compete early around one turn.

Prodigieux is training daily in Ocala. She’ll head to Cherie in a few weeks.

Iseult / FILLY

Sire: Upstart   |   Dam: Glinda   |   Dam Sire: Street Sense

YOB: 2021   |   Bred: Kentucky  

Iseult Update

Glinda, the dam of this filly, is a winner of $65,775 and is by successful sire Street Sense. She won sprinting and is line-bred 4 x 5 to the great Northern Dancer. This Upstart filly is her first foal.

A deeper dive into this family and one will find two premier racehorses under the 3rd dam: the talented filly Spun Sugar (G1), winner of the Apple Blossom H. (G1), and the colt Daaher (G1), winner of New York’s Cigar Mile (G1).

Upstart is considered one of the young rising stars at stud. He is currently #3 on the Third-Year Stallion list behind Not This Time and Nyquist, both of whom were better supported in their first two seasons at stud. Upstart has sired Zandon (G1), the 2022 Bluegrass S. (G1) winner, and the very good three-year-old filly Kathleen O (MGSW). He is also the sire of the Cherie DeVaux-trained first-out winner at Saratoga, The Great Maybe, who earned TDN Rising Star status with her 8-length romp.

Upstart stands at Airdrie Stud in Kentucky and has caught the eye of many of the top breeders for the 2023 season. This filly has all the tools to bring us to the top of the mountain.

Sands of War / FILLY

Sire: War Front   |   Dam: Egyptian Storm   |   Dam Sire: Pioneerof The Nile

YOB: 2021   |   Bred: Kentucky  

Sands of War Update

Sands of War is set to debut in the maiden special weight run at eight and one-half furlongs on the turf (purse $136,500) on Sunday, July 30 at Saratoga. 

How about this for strength of pedigree: Egyptian Storm, the dam of this powerful-looking daughter of War Front, is a half-sister to 2018 Triple Crown winner Justify, and her sire, Pioneerof the Nile, is the sire of 2015 Triple Crown winner American Pharoah.

In the breeding shed, Egyptian Storm is being bred to top stallions. This War Front filly is her first foal, and she has a 2022 colt by Tapit and was bred to Twirling Candy for 2023. The potential is exciting for this already-strong pedigree to blossom.

War Front stands at Claiborne Farm in Kentucky. His stud fee was $100,000 in 2022, and he is considered one of the best sons of the iconic and breed-shaping sire Danzig. To date, War Front has sired three champions and over 100 stakes winners. During his racing career, he won at distances ranging from 6F to 8.5F, with his highlighted victory coming in the Alfred G. Vanderbilt (G1) sprint at Saratoga.

A frequent saying in the industry is, “You cannot put a saddle on pedigree.” This filly has the physical that any racing operation would be proud to put a saddle on. She is well balanced with a great hip and width across her hindquarters. Her conformation would make you think she could handle both dirt and turf. The combination of a stellar pedigree and conformation makes this filly an exciting prospect.
