Family Ties

I take a keen interest in the progress of the offspring from the bloodlines that I breed from and there has been plenty of good news on that front lately.

Di's litter brother's, Ninja Jamie and Farloe Reason, have been going well in the UK and both have live chances in the English Derby which is due to begin at the start of May. In particular Farloe Reason set Hall Green alight in a heat of the Blue Riband this week. He stopped the clock in a sensational 28.11, tr is 28.04. That time is fantastic but when the going allowance of -10 is taken into account it ranks as one of the performances of the year for me. That took his race record to a very nice 10 wins from 14 with 3 seconds and one third, including a track record in Nottingham.

Also going well at present is Farloe Mirror, Di's big sister. She was one of the fastest winners in the first round of the Produce Stakes in Clonmel and I would think she should go a long way in the stake.
