This was the horse we went to the Morrisville sale to buy!
This fabulous filly has the looks and the pedigree to be as good
as any horse sold this year!
Carnoustie is a yearling pacing filly by top New York sire ARTISCAPE ($1,469,461 1:49.3Z) out of the Western Hanover
mare WESTERN CAT.
The Sire, ARTISCAPE, was a world champion and the first 2 year
old to break 1:50. Both his sire, ARTSPLACE, and dam,
DELINQUENT ACCOUNT, were Breeders Crown winners on the track.
ARTISCAPE and is the sire of an amazing 7 millionaires: 2004
Horse of the Year RAINBOW BLUE ($1,428,934 1:49.2s), Maltese
Artist ($2,322,671 1:48.3f), Escape The Wind ($1,851,183
1:48.3s), Yankee Cruiser ($1,150,123 1:49.3s), Rare Jewel
($1,143,788 1:49s), Stonebridge Kisses ($1,011,737
1:50.2s), and Art Director ($1,015,505 1:49.3m).
Carnoustie is the first foal of the WESTERN HANOVER dam WESTERN
CAT ($9,817 2:00.2h), and this is a family of big stakes
winners! WESTERN CAT is a full sister to multiple stakes
winner SO WESTERN ($257,384 1:52.3) who is the dam of sub 1:49
pacer, multiple stakes winner, and the #2 ranked 3yo filly of
2010
DANCINWITHTHESTARZ
($918,605 1:48.4), as well as SO ARTSI ($367,119 1:53.1) A
PLACE OUT WEST ($251,202 1:53.2s), and WESTERN STARZZZ
($104,379 1:51.2). She is also a full sister to the dam of
JO PA'S ARTIST ($229,002 1:55.1h).
Having a top sire, and a top producing family on the dam side is
a huge start, but almost as impressive is the way she looks and
how she moves! I dare you to take a look at her video without
getting excited thinking what kind of potential this big,
athletic filly has!! As if all that wasn't enough,
Carnoustie will be eligible to all the major stakes events, plus the
slot machine fueled New York Sire Stakes!
We will give this filly every opportunity to be the stakes
winner her pedigree points to! She will be broken this
fall by trainer John Butenschoen before shipping to him winter
base in Florida to train down for her 2 year old debut next
summer.
