2014 End of Year Report
Auction News:
The tracks are closed for the holidays and Winter Auction will soon be upon us. We will be sending two yearlings in Big Tail, third foal of Revotic from Civil War's first crop, and Roll of Thunder's first ever foal the chestnut filly Eighth Heaven. Hopefully they will get good homes, but will return here if unsold.
We also have our eye on a Sadler's Wells/Dynaformer/Colonial Affair filly who's owner was forced to close up this season. She made one start this season and finished well, showing promise for things to come. It's unlikely she'll draw a bidding war so hopefully we won't have much trouble bringing her home.
UPDATE: We were unable to secure our filly of choice, though we did meet the reserve on her dam. Perfect Affair will be shipping over with new stud Likable American and will be seeing him this season. Neither foal sold; they will return to Circle F and will remain available to purchase offers.
Racing News:
This season sees the return of Heat Seeker's kid brother Swain's Gold to the track. It just kills us that management issues may have cost him his best runs, but we are determined to let this colt prove himself. This season also sees the starts of our second ever foal crop!
Fillies Amaterasu, Skip A Roo, and Cajun Sunrise will join colts Ghangadhar Rao and Astrapios in moving to Barn 2 to begin their careers.
Our first crop saw 6: 0-1-0 $18,650 with Perfect Summer and Perfect Charmer rising best to the occasion.
Best wishes for our second crop to follow in their hoofprints.
Good Luck to all!
Breeding News:
We've decided to take some time this season and re-evaluate our long-term breeding goals. A selection of breeders from Barns 3 and 4 will be offered for sale later in 2015 and new stock will be imported to further near our ideals to reality.

I just found out that the IRL sire of my sister's IRL mare passed away in November; he has been added to the In Memoriam list. 2008 has been a tough year on the TB Race industry. Please take a moment to stop by and reflect on those from this great industry that are now lost to us. - Dec 2008
