Chuck was eager to get this Mizzen Mast filly and must be thrilled to get out for $45k!

Congrats to Chuck and Bob and good luck!

And 595 also, Theatrical Colt for Bob at 45k.....

And $25k on a Smarty Jones chestnut colt.. Chuck liking this depressed market!

More like loving.

The Smarty is a half to West Virginia, who was a NY bred with Pletcher I think

It's amazing how unfashionable Theatrical has become.

Queen's Plate is the goal :)

If he doesn't make that, he can spoil a Triple Crown bid in the grassy Breeders' Stakes.

Queen's Plate is the only Canadian stakes race I know. Isn't it one at Woodbine, then Fort Erie, and then back to woodbine?

The third leg is 1.5miles on the Woodbine turf. Same distances as the American Triple Crown.

Nice! Half to Dub V

How exciting!

Best of luck with her. :) :tro:

That's funny, I saw that Mizzen Mast filly and though immediately Chuck would like her - congrats, Bob, she looks very nice!

Good Luck Bob and Chuck with the new acquisitions.

congrats dudes..

BOB if you spent all your money I will buy the beer at B-Cup :D

Congrads to you and Chuck

nice! like indian charlie, i don't understand why theatrical isn't more popular.
good luck with the three of them!

Nice guys, congrats!

If one has the patience, they can certainly be a bargain. His offspring seem to be a little late developing

Congrats, best of luck.

Ahhhh... I may have to "pony up" for a share of this one.

My all time favorite horse as the sire and one of my favorite NY Breds as a half. Don't laugh- before SJ came along in late November of '03, my choice to win the 2004 KY Derby was none other than West Virginia.

where do i get a black ruby baby?????????????

congrats chuck and bob on mm filly and the other 2 !!!!!!:)

Congrats to Chuck and Bob!!!

Sign me up for the fan clubs of all of these. :D

Pics of the yearlings...

Bob's Mizzen Mast filly:

for Phill....the Smarty colt:

and my personal favorite...the Theatrical colt...this is one savy boy!




visiting with his buddy Cool Clue:



and the farm (ahem) stars ....my boys:D

Chuck (FYI)

I had the Johannesberg out of this mare(Wild Wonderful) and he was absolutely a handful when we started breaking him in fact we had to geld him before he ever galloped. So if this one has a nasty streak he comes by it honest.


Round Pen

Any of them got a big easy action? Like Tiznow, and this year's Arkansas Derby Winner.

they are all pretty nice movers...the filly is really light on her feet you don't even hear her hit the ground....both colts are just silly boys, bucking and farting. but they look great runningacross the paddocks.

Thanks for the heads up

love the looks of the mizzen mast filly, very nice.

Damn, he looks just like his Daddy.

Lets hope he runs likes his old man also

Hell yeah ...

Amazing that he only went for 25k.

Cool Clue is a sweetie by the way ... I was wondering where he was. :)

I don't know if I would call him sweet....but he's a very nice horse who has matured a lot since he has been here. I like him.

I only saw him the one time back in April I think, but he was sweet then. :{>:

One of my favorites also.
I was a huge doubter.
But I said I hoped all his offspring were happy losers.

Guess I will have to take that back.

he's def grown up since then....
