Senor Buscador’s First Foal is a Colt Born at Shawhan Place

[Wandering Eyes]

Group 1 Saudi Cup hero Senor Buscador (Mineshaft) is represented by his first foal, a colt out of Oriole (Medaglia d'Oro), who hit the ground at Shawhan Place Monday, it was announced via press release.

The new arrival, bred by the farm who raised the stallion, is out of a daughter of multiple stakes winner Free as a Bird (Hard Spun), herself a half-sister to SW Let Me Entertain U (Nobiz Like Shobiz) and to the dam of full-siblings SW Dancing Magic (Good Magic) and SP Thunder Chuck. Oriole is a winner producer with two of racing age.

“To say that I'm excited to have the first Senor Buscador foal would be an understatement,” said Shawhan Place's director of sales, Courtney Schneider. “It's really a full circle moment for all of us here at Shawhan Place. We foaled and raised Senor Buscador, as well as all of his siblings here.”

“This colt has a great hip and shoulder, just like his sire. He is tenacious with a positive attitude and a good mind. We are expecting several more Senor Buscador foals this spring and we are anxiously awaiting their arrival.”

The sire finished off an undefeated two-year-old season with a commanding win in the Springboard Mile, earning a 93 Beyer Speed Figure. The aforementioned win in the G1 Saudi Cup topped his career with seven wins in 23 starts and earnings just shy of $13-million. Senor Buscador stands for $7,500 at Lane's End.
