Okay Goose!

Our daughter of Walmac Farm’s PINEHURST is a little powerhouse. Goose is just over five weeks old and is so smart. Being out of Cinch, this little filly is from the immediate family of Forty Niner, Water Lourdes, and Swale and is an Indiana-bred.

Legs for days, attitude to match. 🔥

Buzz (Lunar Landing ‘25) is just under 7 weeks old and already looking like he’s built for business. We’re keeping a close eye on this one!

We’ve been keeping a secret🤭

Before we tell you that secret, we want to give you a look at her! If you’ve been following us, you know her daughter and granddaughter. She’s beautifully put together and a proven producer… we can’t be more excited!

Jango is quite the personality! After spending most of his first few days in the hospital at Rood & Riddle Equine Hospital, Jango's become a real fan of his turnout time. Though he's fiery and a bit mischievous, he doesn't forget to clack to remind you he's just a baby!

Our homebred Truth From A Dare had her first visitors today! Nikki and Justin popped in to see how our daughter of Tapwrit was adjusting to racehorse life. She’s got a LONG way to go, but we’re thrilled with what we are seeing so far!

We are so thrilled to have this incredible female family present in our own broodmare band! Our mare Daydawn is out of the sister to Better Than Honour's dam.

When selecting broodmares, we've focused on curating our own lines from some of the most influential female families in the industry's history. From Best In Show to Tuerta to even Leslie's Lady, we believe that these female families tend to repeat themselves and prioritize keeping "old school" blood and philosophies in our program.

World record-priced broodmare Better Than Honour is the only mare, thus far, to ever produce back-to-back Belmont Stakes winners, in Rags to Riches and Jazil: https://tinyurl.com/5duncvs6

Jango Update:

Jango is full of life and doing very well! His blood work continues to trend in the right direction and his dam, Imperial Goddess produced 12 ounces of milk this morning. Both will have to remain on medication, however they have been cleared to go home either tonight or tomorrow. Thank you to all who have kept the pair in your thoughts and sent well wishes!

Truth's first day of training is in the books! Trainer Jeff Hiles took her to the indoor to school and let her get her bearings about her. The horse she's jogging beside is a pony horse sent out with young horses to give her company, that way she didn't feel alone. She is very green, but did good especially in a brand new environment. Jeff's team is very patient with horses as they develop so we know she's in fantastic hands.

We're still pinching ourselves that Baby Truth has made it to this moment. Good girl!

For those who don't know, shortly after birth Jango and Imperial Goddess were taken to Rood & Riddle due to Jango's 0 IGG count. He perked up very quickly upon receiving treatment, and Imperial Goddess's milk production has increased. They pair will stay another night or two just for observation and to give Classy all the time she needs to build a bag that will truly sustain him. This isn't entirely uncommon for maiden mares, especially with how strange this year has been in general for many breeders across Kentucky.

Classy has been highly praised for her mothering instincts and her doctor believes she will be an absolutely amazing broodmare to her foals in the future. We have decided to skip Classy this year, meaning she will not be rebred. Instead, she will be bred on an early cover next year.

And with that, foaling season for us is officially done!

We are thrilled to report that Truth From A Dare, Heir to Dare’s last foal, has officially joined her trainer to start her racing career! What an incredible journey this girl has taken us on so far. We can’t wait to see how she develops in Jeff Hiles’ program and will keep you updated.

Welcome to the world, Jango!

Imperial Goddess delivered her Greatest Honour c**t just thirty minutes shy of day 365! His dam is the 3/4 sister to G3 winner Toowindytohaulrox from the immediate female family of Thousand Words and Faiza. Jango is Classy’s first foal and we couldn’t be more pleased with his size, bone, and substance. Great job, Classy!

Greatest Honour stands at Spendthrift Farm

We try not to have favorites, but Oakley (Ice Box-Daydawn) is making it impossible! What a huge personality this filly has- and boy does she love to run! She is our “keeper” from this year’s crop, meaning we plan to keep her for our own program. Got to love them Ice Boxes.
