Copacabana (USA, 2009)
16.0 hh Dk Grey colt By Winning Lad x Turkish Lady (Turkoman)
22: 0-0-4 $15,725
Stud Fee: $500 or Private Treaty
========================================
Trainer's Notes: With the Champion Filly Winning Colors on top and Alydar and Seattle Slew on bottom this is a colt that should run. We expect him to peak in time for the Triple Crown...the big trick will be in keeping him peaked. The colt looks like his granddam, let's hope he runs like her too. Update: Tried hard, but just didn't have the speed to keep up.
Owner's Notes: Given the Big Three in his first 3 generations we'll have to be very careful of inbreeding with the mares we approve to his books. His first crop got only one foal, but he is training very well. Hopefully his subsequent crops will show as much promise.
---------------------------------
Import Stallion. Our first colt, he helped launch our stable.
Review of Race History: Purchased as maiden 2 yo to balance older mare Revotic in our first season. Didn't quite run as hoped, though he did manage to hold his own.
Impressions: Impeccable bloodlines. Hope for his track ability has carried over to the shed.
Recommendations: Top Notch bloodlines to offset poor track performance. Start small, build up.
