Fine Print

2015 Black colt (Risque Remarque x Queen's Wave)

This spectacular colt is a homozygous True Black with the Frame Overo and Sabino genes to create a one of a kind Thoroughbred.  His sire is Risque Remarque, owned by Calumet Farm of Lexington, KY.  Risque's sire is by Sonny’s Solo Halo (unraced) by Halo. Halo is the sire of Sunny’s Halo ($1,247,791), and Preakness and Kentucky Derby winner Sunday Silence ($4,968,554). Sonny’s Solo Halo is out of Softly, the winner of $112,568 who has produced 100% winners to runners. Ellusive Quest’s racing career was cut due to the untimely death of his brother Racey Remarque. In a short race career Ellusive Quest ran fourth in his first career start, and had the fastest time out of 27 racehorses for official work at Turf Paradise as a three-year-old.

Fine Print's dam is the incredibly powerful and extravagant mover, Queen's Wave, who sold for $37,000 as a yearling and had a brilliant racing start before injury took her off the track. Her sire stands at stud for $20,000, and ranks as one of the greatest sires in California history with an amazing 5 consecutive earnings championships and the All Time Turf Sire record.

Coloured thoroughbreds, although rare, are not new. Overo thoroughbreds were documented to have occurred as early as the 1700s. An oil painting from 1790, which hangs in the Walker Art Gallery, in Liverpool, shows a coloured racehorse, King of Trumps, owned by King George III.

Fine Print has the movement to make an outstanding dressage horse, and he should mature at 16.1h.

See his first born, PUZZLE PIECES, on the Thoroughbred page (Sold).
