First Foals Reported For Taylor Made Stallions’ Instagrand

Taylor Made Stallions' Instagrand sired his first reported foals when a filly out of Grade 1 winner Concrete Rose was born on Jan. 10, and a colt out of the Tiznow mare Siesta was born on Jan. 8.

Concrete Rose, a daughter of Twirling Candy out of the winning Powerscourt (GB) mare Solerina, was a $1.95-million Keeneland November acquisition in 2020 by OXO Equine LLC, which also bred the filly. Concrete Rose enjoyed a stellar racing career in which she annexed the $750,000 Grade 1 Belmont Oaks Invitational Stakes, the G3 Edgewood Stakes, G3 Florida Oaks, and the Saratoga Oaks Invitational Stakes at Saratoga at three in 2019. At two, she won the G2 Jessamine Stakes at Keeneland. All told, Concrete Rose captured six of seven lifetime starts—five of them stakes—and banked $1,218,650.

Siesta, a daughter of Tiznow out of the Harlan's Holiday Miz Kella, is a half-sister to recent Zia Park Distaff Stakes winner Canoodling and hails from the immediate family of champion 2-year-old Shanghai Bobby, winner of the 2012 Breeders' Cup Juvenile and that year's G1 Champagne Stakes. Siesta was a $240,000 graduate of the 2018 OBS Spring Sale where she was purchased by Eclipse Thoroughbred Partners. Siesta's colt was bred by Jay Goodwin, Michael Hore, DVM, and Doc Atty Stables.

Instagrand, a dominating son of Into Mischief, led gate to wire to win the 2018 G2 Best Pal Stakes at Del Mar by 10 1/4 lengths in just his second career start. Undefeated at two, Instagrand was named a TDN Rising Star after debuting a 10-length maiden special weight winner, running five furlongs in :56 flat and stopping the clock just .32 of a second off the Los Alamitos track record.

A $1.2-million Fasig-Tipton Gulfstream sale topper after breezing in :10 flat, Instagrand followed up his sensational juvenile season by placing in a pair of key Kentucky Derby preps at three. He placed in the G3 Gotham Stakes at Aqueduct and set the pace in the G1 Santa Anita Derby in his two-turn debut, finishing just behind Roadster and champion 2-year-old and Breeders' Cup Juvenile winner Game Winner.

By perennial leading sire Into Mischief, Instagrand is produced from the winning Lawyer Ron mare Assets of War and is from the immediate family of Grade 1 winners Irish Smoke and Book Review. He bred 190 mares in his initial season at stud and he will stand the upcoming breeding season for $7,500 S&N.

Gainesway Stallions McKinzie, Spun To Run Have First Foals

Gainesway residents McKinzie and Spun to Run each sired their first foals on Jan. 11, both of them fillies.

Grade 1 winner McKinzie's first foal came at Hill 'n' Dale Farms in Kentucky, out of the winning Midnight Lute mare Withholding Info.

The filly is the first foal out of Withholding Info, who won twice in three starts. She is herself the first foal out of the multiple Grade 1 winner Executiveprivilege, from the family of multiple Grade 1 winner Hoppertunity.

McKinzie, a 7-year-old son of Street Sense, stands for an advertised fee of $30,000 for the upcoming breeding season.

He retired with eight wins in 18 starts and earnings of more than $3.4 million, highlighted by victories in the Grade 1 Los Alamitos Cash Call Futurity, Pennsylvania Derby, Malibu Stakes, and Whitney Stakes, the G2 Alysheba Stakes and Triple Bend Stakes, and G3 Sham Stakes. He also finished in the money in six additional graded stakes, including a runner-up effort in the 2019 Breeders' Cup Classic.

Spun to Run's first foal was a filly born in Louisiana, out of the winning Scat Daddy mare L. A. Style.

It is the second foal out of L. A. Style, a three-time winner and half-sister to stakes-placed runners Gettysburg and Devine Charger. Grade 3-placed Funny Sunny is in the extended family.

Spun to Run, a 6-year-old Hard Spun horse, will stand the approaching season for $10,000.

He won five of 12 starts during his on-track career and earned more than $1.1 million. In addition to his triumph in the 2019 Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile, Spun to Run notched a victory in the G3 Smarty Jones Stakes and in-the-money efforts in the G1 Cigar Mile Handicap and Haskell Invitational Stakes.
