Fillies Make a Resurgence

 

The first three foals for the season were colts, and sure enough, as predicted, the next three were fillies.

Skidoodle, a half sister to stakes performer Aboutski produced an impressive chestnut filly by Hold That Tiger. Inprivato followed with another chestnut filly. This one by Sequalo. And Let It Ring produced a lovely Elvstroem filly. This foal is a half to stakes placed Port Call, Lord Of Lauriston and multiple Singapore winner Bel’s Ringer.

The scales have tilted slightly back toward the colts after Success Express mare, Express Fair, a full sister to consistent city winner Speaker produced an attractive colt by Fastnet Rock. This colt is closely related to stakes placed mare Lagerphone (Fastnet Rock x Speaker).
