Glass Slippers In Foal To Dubawi

Triple Group 1-winning sprinter Glass Slippers (GB) (Dream Ahead) has been tested in foal to Dubawi (Ire) for her first mating, owner/breeder Bearstone Stud revealed on Twitter on Thursday.

Trained by Kevin Ryan, Glass Slippers won three black-type races culminating in the G1 Prix de l'Abbaye at three. She added the G1 Flying Five S. the following season and, after missing by a neck to Wooded (Fr) in her l'Abbaye title defense, shipped to Keeneland to win the GI Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint. Glass Slippers finished third in three starts last year, including the Flying Five and the l'Abbaye, before finishing eighth in the latest edition of the Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint at Del Mar.

One Master Foals Dubawi Colt

Roy and Gretchen Jackson's triple G1 Prix de la Foret winner One Master (GB) (Fastnet Rock {Aus}) has produced her first foal, a Dubawi (Ire) colt born on Jan. 27, and will be bred back to Frankel (GB), Gretchen Jackson told the TDN.

One Master is one of around five mares that the Jacksons-the Pennsylvania-based breeders of Classic winners on both sides of the Atlantic in George Washington (Ire) and Barbaro-keep at New England Stud in Newmarket. She is a second generation homebred for the Jacksons' Lael Stables; they bought her dam, the talented sprinter Superstar Leo (Ire) (College Chapel {GB}), in training, and bred from her the G3 King George S. and G3 Molecomb S. winner Enticing (Ire) (Pivotal {GB}), who has produced six winners. Enticing, who has a 2-year-old full-brother to One Master, sadly died last month. Superstar Leo is retired on the Jacksons' farm in Pennsylvania.

Trained by William Haggas, One Master raced until the age of six. In addition to her three Forets, she won the G3 Fairy Bridge S. at Tipperary and the G3 Oak Tree S. at Glorious Goodwood.
