Eight Pack (USA, 2004)
16.0hh Bay mare by Milwaukee Brew x Hosannah (Octagonal)
8:0-1-3 $52,000
======================
Trainer's Notes: Nice breeding, nice lines...didn't do much in her one season at the track, but she may have been retired a bit prematurely.
Owner's Notes: Bought as a brood; have every expectation of her working out nicely...bonus in that I can have some fun with names.
Fun Fact: Not like I'm a fan (I am so NOT), but her unofficial nickname is "Octo Mom" - we call her "Octo".
