Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted July 3, 2018 Journalists Share Posted July 3, 2018 Zoom and Fish Stable, Charlie Spiring and Newtown Anner Stud’s champion Caledonia Road (Quality Road) will be shut down for the remainder of 2018 and turned out due to bone bruising, according to trainer Ralph Nicks. The bay, named champion 2-year-old filly of 2017 off the strength of a convincing GI Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies triumph, most recently ran last of five in the GI Acorn S. June 9 at Belmont. It was also announced that Caledonia Road will be offered at public auction later in the year. “It will be tough to let her go,” said managing partner Luc Paiement. “She was a brilliant 2-year-old with a pedigree to be a much better older filly. She has all the makings of a top broodmare.” Bred in Florida by Vegso Racing Stable, Caledonia Road was bought for $140,000 by Zoom & Fish Stable as a Keeneland September yearling. A debut victress last summer at Saratoga, she was second in the GI Frizette S. before her Breeders’ Cup heroics. “She is a one-of-a-kind talent and has international appeal,” said Nick Sallusto of Sallusto and Albina Bloodstock, who also manage Newtown Anner Stud and will be assisting in the filly’s sale. “It is a privilege to be associated with her.” View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
