all about fast is a beautiful big colt with a nice blaze and a "lucky" left rear sock. He's put together like a grandson of First Down Dash and This Snow is Royal should be -- good bone and muscle, a deep chest, great hip, good legs and nice angles. He has a real "presence" about him.

Grand Sires & Dams

L to R—First Down Dash, Shiney Miles, This Snow is Royal, BCR Beat The Light

By "lucky left rear sock" I mean that a rear left sock seems to be key

in luck & success in some of the "great ones."

Take a look at Champions First Down Dash & This Snow is Royal,

for instance. Neither this colt's sire nor dam have any white on their legs,

yet he has a white left rear like both his grandsires!

Rare News, si 92, by All-Time Leading Sire First Down Dash out of Shiney Miles, si 94 (by Magical Mile TB).

Rare News is a horse with lots of body, beauty and intelligence. This powerful, thick-boned horse was a multiple graded stakes performer at Los Alamitos. He had two wins and was three times 2nd. Rare News was a finalist in the Kindergarten Futurity-G1 (placed 5th), Governor's Cup Futurity-G1, and MBNA America California Challenge Championship-G2. Rare News was also a finalist in the PCQHRA Handicap and the San Diego Handicap. He earned $43,758 on the track. Rare News defeated the likes of many racing greats, such as 2005 Champion Aged Mare Mini Rock, si 102 ($439,979)!

His first foal crop are 3-year-olds of 2008. With 6 foals to go to the track (4 in 2007, 2 so far in 2008), Rare News has 6 foals that have finished in the money, 6 race ROM, 3 winners (one with a speed index of 99), 3 stakes finalists and 1 stakes-placed horse!

Rare News has a wonderful, kind disposition. He is a beautiful stallion, calm and easy to handle. He has a very good mind. His conformation is practically flawless. He is an exceptionally handsome individual with excellent bone, strong feet, and a lot of muscle and body. Rare News's pedigree rivals that of any of the top speed-bred stallions today. His is a strong foundation pedigree of champion sires and stakes producers.
