Hopeful Joy was a 2014 Kentucky-bred filly we partnered in claiming at Fair Grounds in New Orleans with our friends at Horseplayers Racing Club in 2017. We won a 5-way shake for her. The well bred filly is by perennial leading sire Kitten's Joy. She passed through the Keeneland Sales ring twice, once for $145,000 and again for $100,000.

Caliente Candy
2016 ​Kentucky-bred Filly by Sidney's Candy out of Nicks (Salt Lake)

We won a 6-way shake in our successful claim of Caliente Candy at Fair Grounds (February 21, 2019). The well bred 2016 Kentucky-bred filly is by multiple graded stakes winner Sidney's Candy and out of the Salt Lake mare Nicks who is a multiple stakes winner and producer of two other foals who are both winners.


We have high hopes for the young filly, who picked up back-to-back wins for us at Oaklawn Park in her first runs off of our Fair Grounds claim. She followed up those wins with an impressive victory in her debut run at historic Churchill Downs. With a win at Ellis Park in Allowance company (July 6, 2019), a win at Remington Park (September 19, 2019) and a solid third place finish in the Flash Lady Stakes at Remington Park (September 29, 2019), she has proven to be an excellent sprinter.


She closed out the year when she picked up her sixth win for us when she won a stakes caliber Allowance sprint at Remington Park (December 12, 2019). The speedy filly has wins at four different tracks in three different states since our February 2019 claim.


After a successful 2019 campaign with trainer Danny Pish, she moved to the barn of trainer Donnie K. Von Hemel, where she opened the 2020 Oaklawn meet with a thrilling photo finish win in Starter Allowance company (February 6, 2020). In her first run after nearly six month since her last race, she finished third (3rd) in Allowance Company for trainer Danny Pish (September 12, 2020). Caliente Candy notched her first career stakes win in the Flashy Lady Stakes  (September 27, 2020). Caliente Candy followed up her stakes win with an impressive win in Allowance company (November 16, 2020). It was her 10th career win (9th with our partnership).


Caliente Candy ended her career by being named the 2020 Remington Park Champion Older Female (December 23, 2020) She was truly a joy to own.

Angel's Cut

​​2016 Kentucky-bred Filly by Dominus out of Raise You Up  (Blue Grass Cat)

We claimed 2016 Kentucky-bred filly Angel's Cut out of her ninth career start at Fair Grounds in New Orleans. The well bred filly is by multiple graded stakes winner Dominus and out of the Blue Grass Cat mare Raise You Up. She broke a step slow in her last race, was bumped out of the gate and checked twice on a forced 5th place rail trip throughout. It was a classic "bad trip" for her that day as the 7/5 past time favorite. We look forward to watching her develop for us. In her first run off the claim, she finished a nice closing third (3rd) over a sloppy track at Fair Grounds (February 20, 2020). In her second start for us, she picked up the WIN battling in a speed duel early and digging in gamely for the win after being headed down the stretch (March 18, 2020). She finished a very good second (2nd) to the very fast closing post time favorite in her first run at Will Rogers Downs (WRD) for trainer Dena Thomas (April 6, 2020). She was claimed away after the WRD debut effort.
