Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted January 11, 2022 Journalists Posted January 11, 2022 With the 2022 breeding season right around the corner, we will feature a series of breeders' mating plans over the coming weeks. Breeder Leah Perry shares with us the mating plans for her broodmare band. ACAPELLA STAR (IRE) (m, 15, Oratorio {Ire}–Opera Star {Ire}, by Sadler's Wells) A 400 gns private purchase and unraced mare, the George Baker trainee's first foal and only runner Fame n Fortune (GB) (Thewayouare) gained TFR 93 while winning five times. She is also responsible for a filly by Shade Oak stud's Telescope (Ire) who is currently in training with Baker. Acapella star will be visiting Highclere Stud Cable Bay (Ire). The Nick has already produced Ropey Guest (GB), who recorded a career-high Time Form rating 104. “Cable Bay would most certainly be the best sire she has visited, and we are really excited by what the match can produce.” BLUSHING BEAUTY (GB) (m, 10, Youmzain {Ire}-Pink Ivory {GB}, by Sakhee) Blushing Beauty won in Germany over 10 furlongs and finished third in a maiden in Baden Baden in front of eventual Group 2 winner Shivajia. Her first foal, Bagatelle (GB) (Kendargent {Fr}), won at Kempton over eight furlongs and her 2-year-old daughter, Sid's Annie (GB) (Farhh {GB}), ran second in her Kempton debut over seven furlongs. Blushing Beauty's second dam is Anna of Saxony (GB), the granddam of Anna Salai (Dubawi {Ire}), who is responsible for G1 Epsom Derby and G1 King George winner Adayar (Ire) (Frankel {GB}). “Blushing Beauty will be visiting Land Force (Ire). Physically, I feel he will really suit her and bring some speed to the pedigree.” The post 2022 Mating Plans: Leah Perry appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
