Blackwaterfoot is a striking 3-year-old gelding who is trained at Newlands Yard in Upper Lambourn. His pedigree suggests we could have an exciting horse on our hands, and we’re looking forward to seeing his career progress.
He was sired by American thoroughbred Medaglia d’Oro, who was a three-time Grade 1 winner, amassing an impressive £3.6 million in prize money. Those Grade 1 wins all came on the dirt, whilst he also finished runner-up twice in the Breeders’ Cup Classic, in what was an illustrious career.
Since being sent to stud, he has produced multiple stars, including the likes of Golden Sixty (10 x Group 1 winner in Hong Kong), Songbird (9 x Grade 1 winner, including Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies) Rachael Alexander (5 x Grade 1 winner, including the Kentucky Oaks), and Plum Pretty (2 x Grade 1 winner, including the Kentucky Oaks).
Blackwaterfoot’s Dam is eight-time winner Tempus Fugit, who has produced the likes of Grade 2 winner Majestic River, and two-time all-weather winner Tempus Temporis. With both his parents producing multiple winners, we’re confident that Blackwaterfoot will have a bright and exciting career ahead of him.
“He’s shaping up nicely and looks set to race over one mile or further. He’s handled working on grass well, so he’ll be able to run on both the turf and all-weather – he’s a very likeable horse with a great laid back attitude.” – Charlie Pike, Assistant Trainer.
Blackwaterfoot has been working well at home and made a promising debut at Chelmsford in August. With that run under his belt, we can’t wait to see how he progresses this season and we’re optimistic he’s going to give his owners plenty of fun days out throughout the year.
The syndicate term for Blackwaterfoot will end on 31st August 2025.
