Broodmares of the Week - Sponsored by Brewer Concrete Demolition LLC

By far the biggest complaint I get about my blog, besides complete lack of mastery of the english language, is that the ladies would like to see more pictures of me with power tools. Your wish is granted. I take complaints very seriously, which is why I decided to do some jackhammering of concrete from the backyard to make way for my cat racetrack (first race in the condition book is for 4 year old and up female feral calico cats, but it requires 7 entries to go)

Please note how well I do matching fence colors. It's called wanting to be at the track rather than staining.

Washington Cup Day was last Sunday and the good news is that I don't have to do very much work to account for every single broodmare that won a Washington Cup Stakes Race last weekend. Why, you ask? Because I have written Broodmares of the Week for all of these horses already with the exception of Chu and You's dam, Bronze Charmer. I am prophetic.

(1) Chinook Pass Stakes - Won by Noosito, who is by Harbor the Gold out of the prolific Basket Weave mare, Julia Rose. She needs no introduction. The mile was ran in 1:35.13. Noosito is a full to Noosa Beach and Music of My Soul. Noosito is still a colt so you have imagine that he might have a future career in the Northwest.

(2) Dennis Dodge Stakes - Won, predictably, by Trackattacker who ran 6 Furlongs in 1:09.27 geared down. Would be interesting to see what the numbers for this horse came back at. Here is the link to my article on Eclatante, Trackattacker's dam. Again, a very good Harbor the Gold:

(3) Pegasus Stakes - Won by Madame Pele who got to avoid the Northwest Farms contingent this time. I wrote extensively about the dam, Striking Scholar, earlier this year because she is also the dam of Longacres Mile winner Stryker Phd:

(4) Northwest Farms Stakes - As a side note, the dishonorary steward for this race was Darrin Paul who got a rousing ovation from the crowd when his presence was announced.

Won by Seattles Best Copy. By Demon Warlock out of the Supremo mare, Premo Copy. Wrote about Soft Copy, Premo Copy's dam earlier this year. Seattles Best Copy ran the 6 Furlongs in 1:10.18:

It was nice to see Fine Red Wine get second. Dancing with Effie, unfortunately, got out of the gate poorly which took away her one true weapon: speed.

(5) Comcast Sportsnet Stakes - Won by the You and I filly Chu and You. Out of the Volponi mare, Bronze Charmer, Chu and You controlled the pace and was able to put away Mylast Sweet Pea. Bronze Charmer was purchased by Halvorson Bloodstock in November 2005 for $22,000.

(6) Muckleshoot Tribal Classic - K-Swag brings it home with his homebred Mike Man's Gold. By Liberty Gold out of Chedoodle, Mike Man's Gold got some good competition to run against at Del Mar and came back for this nice victory. My story on Chedoodle and K-Swag is here:
