00:00Our fastest horse of the week brought to you by the Fast Sires at Windstar Farm, and this is what
00:05seems like our weekly update on Stallion.
00:08Life is good, and for good reason. He keeps producing exciting horses, such as Cardman, who on opening day at
00:17Belmont Park,
00:18in a one-mile maiden special weight race for two-year-olds, scored by five lengths as the two-to
00:23-five favorite.
00:24That's just one example, and look at the Keeneland's September sale. He's already been represented.
00:28Life is good, we're talking about, by two seven-figure yearlings, HIP 941.
00:35A Colt brought in $1 million in Book 2, and HIP 1412 in Book 3 brought a top bid of
00:43$1.25 million.
00:45That makes Life is Good one of only three sires with $3 million earners.
00:51Life is Good is the leading first crop sire by black-type winners, black-type horses, and graded stakes winners.
00:59And, of course, Life is Good stands at Windstar Farm.
01:02Fastest horse of the week we have talked about in detail.
01:04That is Forever Young with his 105 buyer speed figure.
01:08Now, it must be said, that is a very subjective buyer speed figure.
01:15A lot of times, the buyer speed figures we're talking about are based on a ton of evidence.
01:19In this particular case, it's a brand-new mile-and-a-quarter distance with the new mile-and-a-quarter
01:25chute.
01:26There's very little available data in terms of how fast those horses should run at the mile-and-a-quarter
01:32distance.
01:33So it's pretty much an estimate, but I think it's a pretty accurate estimate.
01:36Not one of his best career races, but you can expect Forever Young to take a step forward, I think,
01:43in his next start in the Breeders' Cup Classic.
