Jan 2010 Update - From all reports we
are receiving, SILENT PARTNER is training as well as a newly
turned 2 year old could! He is doing everything right, has
a GREAT attitude, and shows all the ability in the world
It just keeps getting better...VIP
Stable is part of the group who purchased the CAMLUCK yearling
SILENT PARTNER!
This son of Canada's greatest sire is
a tremendous physical specimen - he is a tall and long barreled
colt who covers ground very easily.
This baby just has the athletic look of a nice racehorse, and
this shows very well in his video.
SILENT PARTNER is out of the
stakes winning JATE LOBEL mare PRECIOUS BEAUTY ($112,842
1:53.3). This dam is from a family of speed producing
fillies with all 9 siblings in her family winning in 1:57 or
better (8 or 9 in 1:55 or better and 5 of 9 in 1:53 or better).
But the
biggest selling point on our purchase of SILENT PARTNER was his
brother - the World Champion SPORTSWRITER ($685,196
1:49.2s). This 2 year old was recently voted the Champion
2 year old pacing colt after his stakes wins in the Metro, Champlain and Nassagawey stakes.
He is the fastest 2 year old in the history of harness racing,
and currently ranked #4 in the Hambletonian / Breeders Crown
poll behind the likes of Muscle Hill, Well Said and Lucky Jim
(and he's the only 2 year old ranked in the poll)!
Josh Green will train SILENT PARTNER. Josh is the
longtime leading trainer on the Chester / Dover / Harrington
circuit and also has a division racing at Yonkers where he is
neck and neck for the leading trainer title. Josh is
currently ranked 3rd in North America in training wins and 7th
in training purses for 2009. On top of being a great
horseman, Josh is a great guy who should fit perfectly with our
new purchases.
Regarding our new purchase,
Josh Green said "Silent Partner has a presence about him. He's
a strong athletic looking colt, yet very light on his feet. His
video is excellent, but my visit to see him at the farm
convinced me that this is one we need to get".
This is likely our last
yearling purchase of the year, so don't wait for the next best
thing (it doesn't get much better than this)! And remember, VIP Stable is the ONLY place you'll be able to get
involved with a TOP yearling of this quality!
Please get
back to Ed or Tom with questions or to reserve your spot!
Unprecedented tax benefits for Yearling buyers
The Economic Stimulus Act of 2008 dramatically increased the Section 179
“expensing allowance”, and added a Bonus Depreciation provision
for Yearlings purchases. These combined tax changes may
allow a taxpayer to actually write off the entire amount spent on Yearlings against his or her income
taxes!
