Let us know about the Vindication - Silverbulletday colt

[Sightseek]

Wow, I can't believe the Empire Maker filly out of Ruby Randsome (from the family of Amelia Bearheart) only went for $600K

The Silverbulletday is an out.

I'm interested in the full to Smarty, obviously.

Do the Farms sometimes double breed back to back stallion/mare hoping the first outcome runs good at 2 and makes next years foal even more expensive?

A lot of the times they do, especially the Storm Cat's since he will be pensioned soon. Although in the case of Smarty Jones' dam, I'll Get Along, they end up skipping a year breeding to Elusive Quality because they had no idea what they got the first time.

Just for those of you wondering about white feet. It has nothing to do with temperment. For some reason, white feet tend to be much more sensitive. I know of a certain horse who has set the Saratoga track record for 5f on the turf three times in the last two years who can't run more than a few times a year becasue of this condition. He requires long breaks to allow the feet to heal. If it weren't for his feet, he'd likely have won a bunch more races.
