GSW Magic On Tap’s First Foal A Filly

GSW Magic on Tap (Tapit) is celebrating his first foal–a filly out Sea Gazer (Tiznow)–who arrived just after midnight Jan. 17 for breeder Scott Miller, Pleasant Acres Stallions said in a Thursday release.

Sea Gazer's dam Seafree (Chief Seattle) collected four wins including the GII La Canada S. and was third in the GI Santa Margarita Invitational H. She produced MSW Interest Free (Exchange Rate) who is responsible for SW Market Analysis (Honor Code). Seafree is a half-sister to GI Belmont S. and GI Travers S. runner-up Fly Down (Mineshaft).

Magic on Tap began his stallion career at Pleasant Acres Stallions last year and stands for $5,000. His dam, GISW Aubby K (Street Sense), brought the fourth highest return–$2.4 million–at the '15 Fasig-Tipton Fall Mixed Sale when she was purchased by Summer Wind Equine with him in-utero.

“The moment Magic on Tap stepped off the van upon his arrival at Pleasant Acres Stallions we knew he would produce exceptional foals,” said Director of Stallion Services Christine Jones. “His very first foal is a filly with good bone, great conformation, and looks to be very racy! She is everything we expected!”

Chess Chief Takes Up Stud Duty For $5,000 Fee At Pleasant Acres

Pleasant Acres Stallions welcomed 2021 Virginia Horse of the Year and GSW Chess Chief (Into Mischief) who will stand his inaugural season in Florida for a $5,000 fee, the farm said in press release on Friday.

Bred by Morgan's Ford Farm, Chess Chief comes to the 220-acre breeding operation northwest of Ocala after finishing his racing career last January.

The 7-year-old owned by the estate of James J. Coleman and trained by Dallas Stewart, earned $931,319 over the course of his career with his best effort coming when he won the GII New Orleans Classic at Fair Grounds.

Out of the Mineshaft mare Un Blessed who is a half to the dam of MGSW Diabolical (Artax), Chess Chief was declared the Virginia-Bred Older Horse Champion at the same time he was recognized as the state's Horse of the Year.

“Chess Chief is a wonderful addition to our stallion barn,” said Director of Stallion Services Christine Jones. “He was a talented athlete who beat Mucho Gusto, Long Range Toddy and twice he beat Roadster–all in graded events.”
