She is by the Unbridled mare Piedras Negras, but I think she's unnamed at this time according to DRF.

I have a Johannesburg weanling that is a little on the small side but made well and is out of a very nice stakes-winning El Prado mare...I'm counting on Johannessburg firing big as a sire in his first couple of crops so that he'll help me sell my colt....we'll see, but I will enjoy betting his 2-year-olds this year.

I also think Yonaguska and Jump Start are two cheaper stallions that I feel will have a very solid first crop...watch out.
Assmusen has a Yonguska in the tx ft next week at LS. I think he or his dad are owner too. I agree that Ronnie is great with babies. One that he did well with a few years ago was Touch Tone and he is throwing babies that are running this year.

I love playing those baby Futuritys at Lone Star every year...I think they're the TTA Sales Futurities...always full fields and a price usually always wins....great betting races.

Asmussen also has that colt named Datrick, who should be very tough to beat in the colts and geldings division of that race...I don't like faves usually in that race, but he is far classier than that group.....it'll be interesting to see how the fillies division turns up..I was fortunate to catch most of the Trial races so I will be interested in a little wagering action..

Both races look like a Assmusen Calhon chalange. Dosent Calhoun showcase most of his babies for private sale ?

Default Scat Man

Obviously, Scat Man looks like one special speed demon....
We shall see down the line how he handles two turns..

I am partial to a couple of NY Bred 2YO fillies, but then again these are the first two horses that i have ever owned and will be shipped from the Farm to Finger Lakes shortly. Hopefully, they will be competitive....
