Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted Tuesday at 05:11 PM Journalists Share Posted Tuesday at 05:11 PM Ocala Stud stallion Seeking the Soul (Perfect Soul {Ire}–Seeking the Title, by Seeking the Gold), whose first-crop runners are 3-year-olds this year, died unexpectedly on Feb. 28, of complications from colic. Campaigned by Charles Fipke, the homebred won the 2017 GI Clark H., 2018 GIII Ack Ack S. and the 2019 GII Stephen Foster S. The Kentucky-bred won or placed in eight graded stakes, including runner-up finishes in the $1-million GI Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile and the $9-million GI Pegasus World Cup Invitational S., while hitting the board in 20-of-32 career starts. Seeking the Soul was by Fipke's Grade I winner and Canadian Champion Perfect Soul out of the graded stakes-winning Seeking the Gold mare Seeking the Title. He hailed from the Phipps family of undefeated champion Personal Ensign, champion Storm Flag Flying, and Grade I-winners My Flag, Miner's Mark, and Traditionally. “The unexpected passing of Seeking the Soul is a tremendous loss,” said Ocala Stud's David O'Farrell. “He was a remarkable racehorse who had just begun his stallion career. His impact will be deeply missed by everyone who knew and worked with him, including all of us here at Ocala Stud. We extend our condolences to Charles Fipke, who bred him and guided him through an extraordinary racing career.” The post Ocala Stud Stallion Seeking the Soul Dies From Colic appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
