Birdstone

[Calzone Lord]

One of them is already named (Conquest Titan) and working at Churchill.

I thought that one was extremely impressive at OBS March. Went 10 flat for his 1/8th and galloped out impressively in 20 4/5 and 33 flat.

Did it in blinkers, but looked to be moving very efficiently. Certainly passed the market test as well, was a $75,000 yearling in September and sold for $475,000

If I'm looking at a first time starter ... and I see the sire is Birdstone, and the dam's an unraced Mineshaft out of a Kingmambo mare... it's immediate elimination no matter what. I wouldn't even include it for the 4th slot in supers.

For that kind of pedigree, I thought that the now named Conquest Titan was very impressive in his drill to say the least.
