Race Record 2 0-0-0 $200

Spark Plug ran sixth in his first race off a 10-month layoff against Allowance company at Houston.

He should move forward off this effort and threaten at the same level next time out.

 
Maxie's Night Cap - Grindstone yearling colt

Redsolocup, yearling colt

Minor stakes winner Trainingat the Bar dropped her first foal, a handsome colt by Demon Warlock.

Race Record 0 0-0-0 $0

The mare had unique talent on the racetrack and if not for a nagging knee condition, could've been a stakes horse. We're pretty excited about this young fella's chances.

Race Record 22 5-3-3 $43,846

Silverport

We're really excited about this one. This striking filly is by graded stakes-winner Rockport Harbor. He was the country's 7th leading freshman sire and is 6th on the national second-crop sire list.

We purchased this filly privately after the Barretts Sale at a big discount to his two-year-old sales average of $80,000.

The filly is out of a winning and producing Silver Deputy mare, who is a half-sister to a $160,000 stakes-placed winner and out of a $134,000 stakes-winning Nasty and Bold mare.

She's in the barn of Doug O'Neill.

She's an older mare by Mr Broad Blade out of a Prized mare.

Race Record 37 8-7-4 $111,664

Twodollars ran last in what was likely the final race of her career as it appears she's lost the desire to compete.

 
Commuter

We purchased this four-year-old Washington-bred privately after his first three races at Golden Gate. He's by promising young sire Private Gold out of a Country Light mare. He's a half-brother to $169,000 winner Soft Lite.

Race Record 5 M-1-3 $5,483

Commuter ran last in his first race off a six-month layoff at Golden Gate. He broke well and was mid-pack early, but was flat down the lane. He should move up several lengths in his next start.
