Welllll I haven't done of these in FOREVER and I keep getting new ponies so why not haha.

Con Artist
(Dodger x Player Hater)
3rd gen! He's by one of my favorite 2nd gen colts, who also won at Dubai this year! His dam placed in the Kentucky Oaks and so far he's done fairly well on the track. I love love love sprinters and I'm really hoping to get him high enough to participate in the Breeders' Cup later this year, we don't have nearly enough flat out sprinters on the forum! WE MUST REMEDY THIS.
Dapper Doll
(Nizmo x Bold Lady)
This flashy lady is by a colt owned by Ryder ☆ that I bred for her haha. Nizmo didn't seem to have much interest in racing, though he made it to GI through sheer freaking grit, while Doll's dam is an Eclipse winner and Dubai winner! She's a granddaughter of John Henry, another Eclipse and Breeders' Cup winner anddd she is the sweetest flashiest thing. She was my first frame overo on the 2.7 and I think I only managed to pull out some hair hexing her haha.
Filo
Whoooo likes Rising of the Shield Hero?! Named after the Filolial queen of Naofumi's party, because that character is so damn cute :c Needed another dirt filly and she's a dead on sprinter, so yaaay for that. She's also my only real ~white tb and on a nice chunky mod to mimic the fat Chocobo-like consistency of filolial queens.
Firebrand
(Dracarys x Moxie)
Overooooos unite apparently. She's by one of my top stayers Dracarys, who is a son of the great Eclipse, and won at Dubai this year! Her dam is out Ansia and has a decent record behind her, placing in and winning numerous black-type stakes. She's a very calm filly, which is at odds with her fiery sire and grandsire, but she's also very willing to pose unlike my other TBs so thank god for that lol. I can only deal with so much bullshittery with my horses before I have to close the program.
Flashbang
(Lustre x Bold Lady)
Hexed by the ever-fantastic Jewellz and by one of my favorite turf colts of hers! This guy is a half brother to Dapper Doll and a full brother to Brazen, along with a number of other winners. He's done well for himself so far, buuut his sisters seem to be getting the better of him so far... seems all the luck is going to fillies lately lol. Poor guy.
Foxglove
I RAN OUT OF DIRT 1ST GEN FILLIES, thus she was born. I found a reference I liked and I found that I had Akmu's TB mod, and I'm so in love with it now ugh. This girl likes to stand and stare at me with huge owl eyes but is otherwise the least weird of my horses. Somehow. She managed to pull out a third in her first start against GIII maidens so I'm rather excited for her prospects.
Heathen
(Pagan x Songbird)
Sire is a Triple Crown winner and dam is a Triple Tiara winner, what is there not to like? I was seriously lucky enough to win this dude in the raffle that Jewellz put up for her two Triple winners and I am sooo happy with him. His full sister is doing consistently well on the track, and he's already scored a few himself so I'm really hoping this sets him up well for a run at the roses next year. He's such a tough pony, and hopefully he can live up to his parents' lofty expectations.
Hokkaido Hero
(Keen Ice x Akiba's Idol)
10 pts to anyone who can guess where his dam's name is from! He's by the 2017 Preakness winner and out of... a mare that won all of 1 start oops. But she's a dressage champ so there's that?! He's done okay for himself on the track, lots of 5ths but he rarely is out of the Top 5! He's a weird horse... he's a dead closer like his sire, but only if he's on the farrrr outside and doesn't have a horse on either side of him. I guess he hates closing in between horses, because I have yet to see him actually win that way. Oh he'll run... but once he's got a buddy on one side, he's much happier galloping along and gossiping.
Impulsive
(Motive x Charisma)
Ugh I'm not gonna lie, I actually had this guy from last year and lost him when my computer exploded (the 1st time fml). BUT I FOUND HIM AGAIN and look how handsome haha. He's full Rhapsody lines by Jewellz's top dirt handicapper Motive and out of an Eclipse champion mare. So far he hasn't dropped from the top 3 in any of his starts, and while he's too short on distance to go for the Triple Crown like his parents, ohhh the fun I will have with him in SPRINTS, SO MANY SPRINTS. Plus look at that face, he's far too lazy to go further than 10 furlongs lmao. Horse after my own heart, this one
Metallurgy
(Adamantium x Sorcery)
Ohhh how I love this pony haha. He won his first five straight before losing it a bit, but gotta love a turf closer! He's a grandson of John Henry through his sire, AND a grandson of the great Hawkstone stallion Warranty through his dam. He's got Eclipse winners on all sides and Breeders' Cup winners, so I'm very hopeful I can get some nice turf wins from him! ...2000 Guineas next year perhaps?!
Minx
(Adamantium x Vixin)
A half sister to Metallurgy, and out of another Ryder mare! She's a daughter of my two-time Eclipse champ Empire City, who hasn't yet thrown a dud. Minx is one flashy filly, and she's a crack shot on the track to boot. I love these simple frame overos, she was such fun to hex and she's probablyyy one of my favorites of this crop so far. She's also the fourth and final foal in a huge swap I did with Ryder ☆ - we each got a foal from the pairs and of course all of them were freaking overo lmao. WORTH IT THO.
Mokuso
(Vain x Shizuka)
This boyyyy, I love. He's by Vain, one of Jewellz very nice turf colts and out of Shizuka, one of my very trying turf mares haha. He's won at first asking and was full of grit to do it - he won a FOUR HORSE photo finish! Although he is also a very silly boy - he tends to somersault to stop his gallops in the game, what I call the K'eyush way of stopping. (SUBSCRIBE TO HIM)
Stiletto
(Bolo x Obsidian)
So many turf horses, so few turf races! This lady is by the top turf handicapper Bolo, owned by Jewellz, and my own Dubai winner Obsidian. She's actually a half sister to Lustre, sire of another of my horse's, and thus has some very lofty hooves to fill. When I was first hexing her, the black on the 2.7 seemed plain, so I started fiddling with some in-game textures and this one seemed prettyyy sharp - fits her name nicely! Though she is so much nicer than the weapon she's named after lol.
Yokai
(Apparition x Mesmerize)
A veryyyy fancy colt from Jewellz's breeding service. I couldn't resist omg. His sire is the winner of the 2017 Belmont Stakes, which tbh is closer to my heart than the Kentucky Derby, and his dam nearly updated TWO FREAKING TRIPLE CROWNS to place second in the 2018 Belmont and 2018 Acorn - which means this horse can technically run for dayyys. PLUS he's a perlino, you can't say no to that, ever.
