The first mare has been pronounced in foal to 2022 Horse of the Year and World's Best Racehorse Flightline: the Grade 3-winning Lady Scarlet (Union Rags – Exclude {GB} by Include).
The 4-year-old Lady Scarlet won last year's Cicada Stakes and Grade 3 Miss Preakness Stakes for owners Paradise Farms Corp and David Staudacher. She was a recent purchase by Glendalough Farm at the Keeneland January Horse of All Ages Sale.
Flightline, the champion son of Tapit out of the Indian Charlie mare Feathered, was bred by Jane Lyon's Summer Wind Farm and raced by Summer Wind in partnership with Hronis Racing, Siena Farm, West Point Thoroughbreds and Woodford Racing. He was trained by John Sadler and ridden in all six of his starts by Flavien Prat.
In addition to the Breeders' Cup Classic, Flightline won the G1 Pacific Classic, the G1 Metropolitan Handicap and the G1 Malibu Stakes. He was the world's highest rated racehorse in 2022 on a figure of 140, and is the highest-rated dirt horse of all time.
Flightline stands for $200,000.
