We purchased Next Episode, a stakes-placed earner of $301,163, out of the Fasig-Tipton January Digital Sale for $11,000. Shares sold quickly ($1,100 for a 10% interest) and there is only 1 left as of 2/7/26. A maiden mare right off the racetrack, partners voted for her to be bred to Corniche in 2026 and she is in foal to him on a February cover.

With Practical Joke’s stud fee at $75,000, we purchased his daughter out of the very fast mare Jennemily for $42,000 at the Keeneland September sale. We paid $60,000 for Jennemily at the 2023 Keeneland January sale, and a year later at the same sale, sold her Bolt d’Oro yearling filly for $140,000. Her Practical Joke filly has a sprinter’s physique, but a length of bone that suggests she will run a route. Syndicated into 10 shares at $4,200 per share.

Kentucky Derby winner MANDALOUN’s first crop of yearlings averaged $125,000 at the 2025 Keeneland September sale. This pretty filly of his, out of the winning Malibu Moon mare Make Amends, was purchased for $70,000 in that sale. Her dam ran speed figures of 7 and 9 and her 1/2-brother Modus Bestia ran a 99 Beyer when he broke his maiden at Del Mar in September (and is entered in the G1 Malibu Stakes on 12/28). With those fast genes we think this filly will follow in their footsteps. Shares are $7,000.

Country Life stuck around to the end of the 2025 Fasig-Tipton Midlantic 2-Year-Old Sale to pick up a well-muscled New York-bred filly by racehorse sire FLAMEAWAY (by Scat Daddy, sire of Triple Crown winner Justify). Out of a winning Speightstown mare named Thicker Than Water, the Flameaway filly cost $25,000, and bargain-minded partners who dreamed of Saratoga afternoons with a New York-bred quickly contacted us. We sold 10 shares at No Markup, $2,500 for 10% interests. Blending her parents’ names, partners voted to name her AQUA BLAZE.
She comes from a deep, fast family. Her second dam, Contessa Halo, produced speedster sire KANTHAROS, winner of the Saratoga Special, Grade 2, for 2-year-olds. She also produced ITIGAI, who won the Grade-3 Mr. Prospector Stakes, also a sprint.
AQUA BLAZE is with trainer Mike Trombetta’s Laurel string and hopes to make her racing debut in November.

With the lucrative purses available for Virginia-bred racehorses, Country Life Farm in 2024 sent one of our nicest young mares — MISS NONDESCRIPT — to foal at the Middleburg, Virginia, operation of horseman Chris Gracie. As a stakes-winning daughter of our War Front stallion MOSLER, MISS NONDESCRIPT delivered a colt — since named Indyscript — who we are anxiously looking forward to campaigning at Colonial Downs as a 2-year-old of 2026.
In order to assemble a racing partnership of 10 members, we needed to have MISS NONDESCRIPT’s 2024 colt appraised at public auction. Sired by A. P. Indy’s son TAKE CHARGE INDY, the colt was sold at the 2025 Keeneland January Mixed Sale. We bought out the Breeding Partnership on a $23,000 bid. Several partners re-upped in the racing partnership, at $2,300 for a 10% interest.
Being a Virginia-bred, Indyscript colt is poised to take advantage of the restricted stakes races at Colonial Downs. He is also eligible to earn owner bonuses for wins in the Mid-Atlantic, and 50% owner bonuses in open races at Colonial Downs for finishing 1st through 4th.
The partners combined the names of his sire and dam. INDYSCRIPT will be broken in September of 2025 at our Merryland Training Center.

Updated August 2025:
Trouville is a multiple stakes-placed, hard-knocking mare who ran 39 times and earned $298,237 in her career. Her sire, Will Take Charge, is by Unbridled’s Song, a huge influence in the mare’s pedigree. Her dam, Night Drive, is a half-sister to the dam of Grade-1 winner and $1.6-million-earner OCTAVE, by Unbridled’s Song. Octave is the granddam of Travers Stakes entrant Magnitude.
Trouville was purchased for $115,000 at the Keeneland November sale in 2024 in foal to Champion Forte. Forte was a popular first-crop covering stallion with mares in foal to him averaging $162,875.
After we bought her at Keeneland, we shipped her directly to Chris Gracie’s Middleburg, Virginia, farm to foal. She delivered a chestnut colt by Forte on February 11, 2025. That colt is now eligible for the lucrative Virginia-bred bonuses (34% breeder bonus for 1st-3rd finishes across the U.S.).
After foaling her Forte colt in Virginia, Trouville was sent to Kentucky to be mated with City of Light, the sire of Eclipse 2-Year-Old Champion Fierceness.
Shares at No Markup sold out quickly: $11,500 for a 10% interest.

Purchased for $70,000 and quickly sold out at $7,000 per share, DIAMONDQUIST was part of the supplemental catalog at the Fasig-Tipton Midlantic Yearling Sale on October 1, 2024. This balanced, athletic now 2-year-old filly is by one of the nation’s leading young sires: Uncle Mo’s son NYQUIST. With a total of seven Grade-1 winners, NYQUIST is regarded as a prolific sire of talented 2-year-olds. They include 2024 Eclipse Champion juvenile filly IMMERSIVE, and 2025 Del Mar Oaks winner VELOCITY. NYQUIST’S 2025 Stud Fee was $175,000. His yearling average through the 2025 Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Sale is a whopping $575,000.
After the yearling sale, DIAMONDQUIST spent a few weeks at our Merryland Training Center learning her early lessons on the racetrack. We then sent her down to the Middleburg Training Center to trainer Chris Kolb to become Virginia-Certified. She completed her six-month residency in Virginia then joined trainer Mike Trombetta’s string at Laurel. This highly regarded young filly is training forwardly and we anticipate her racing debut sometime the fall of 2025.
The opportunities for Kentucky-bred, Virginia-certified DIAMONDQUIST are exciting. Not only is she eligible to the lucrative restricted Virginia-Certified program, but her registration with the Kentucky Thoroughbred Development Fund opens up rich races for her from Kentucky Downs to Keeneland to Turfway to Ellis Park.

Updated August 2025: Speed in broodmares is always important. In the young mare Truancy, we found speed. In her first four races, all in New York, she ran Thoro-Manager Speed Figures of 8, 7, 6, and 7. The closer to zero, the faster. She was smokin’ fast, and trainer Barclay Tagg pointed her for stakes races before she suffered a soft tissue tendon injury and was retired. She earned $135,350 in her brief racing career.
Country Life bought her from a racing outfit at the 2023 Fasig-Tipton December sale for $55,000 and sold out her 10% interests at $5,500. Out of the stakes winning Successful Appeal mare Successfully Sweet, Truancy is a 1/2-sister to Grade-3 winner and $558,000-earner Confrontation.
The attraction of young Kentucky sires factored into our decision for her first mating. She was bred to Gun Runner’s Grade-1 winning son Cyberknife in 2024, to whom she produced a handsome bay colt on Feb. 4, 2025. She was bred back to freshman sire Charge It, a son of Tapit at Gainesway Farm, for foaling season of 2026.

When we bought Maybe I Will for $100,000 at the 2024 Keeneland January Mixed Sale, we added yet another fine young racemare to the Country Life Breeding Partnership portfolio. Looking for “live” families, we found one in Maybe I Will. Her dam, the Henny Hughes mare My Due Process, had produced a 2022 filly by Omaha Beach named Cayucos. That filly debuted the summer of 2024 and promptly placed in the Generous Portion Stakes at Del Mar. Other siblings in this “live” family out of My Due Process include a 2024 colt by Into Mischief’s son Authentic, a 2025 filly by Gun Runner’s son Gunite, and for 2026, a mating to Justify’s son Arabian Knight.
Purchased in foal to Omaha Beach, Maybe I Will delivered a Jan. 30, 2024, filly by that leading son of War Front. We bred her back to Bolt d’Oro that spring, and on Feb. 6, 2025, she foaled a bay colt by that popular son of Medaglia d’Oro. For the foaling season of 2026, Maybe I Will is pregnant to leading second-crop sire sensation Vekoma.
Maybe I Will deserves every chance to succeed as a broodmare. Her four wins include the $100,000 Hastings Stakes, in which she ran a career-best ThoroGraph speed figure of “6.” When we offered 10% interests at no markup at $10,000 each, there were no “Maybe’s” about Maybe I Will, and she sold out quickly.

Since being purchased by Country Life Farm for $42,000 at the 2023 Fasig-Tipton Midlantic Yearling Sale, DIVINE WORKS has taken us on quite a ride. She made her racing debut at Saratoga in August of 2024, running a very game second to a talented future stakes filly. Off that promising effort, she tried stakes company in the Maryland Million Lassie. She finished out of the money, and we gave her three months of R&R at Merryland Farm over the winter. She broke her maiden in March at Colonial Downs for a $93,000 purse, and in July, was beaten a mere half-length in a $90,000 Colonial event, which brought her earnings over the $100,000 mark.
DIVINE WORKS is a Maryland-bred, Maryland Million-eligible, Virginia-certified, Breeders’ Cup nominated filly by Country Life stallion Divining Rod. This filly’s dam is a 1/2-sister to Grade-1 Kentucky Oaks winner CATHRYN SOPHIA, who earned over $1,229,000 in her career with 5 stakes wins. Ten shares sold out quickly at $4,200 each.

We purchased War Value, a 7-year-old mare by War Front, in foal to G1 Florida Derby winner Known Agenda (by Curlin), for $35,000 at the Keeneland November Sale. She’s out of the stakes-placed A.P. Indy mare Value Stream, who is a 1/2-sister to G3 winner and sire Buffum, stakes-winner Stormy West and full sister to stakes-placed Renaissance Lady (herself the dam of G3 Tempted Stakes winner Oxy Lady).
Shares are $3,500 for a 10% interest. She’ll foal in Maryland and be bred back to a KY stallion in 2023.

We purchased this pretty Kitten’s Joy filly at the Fasig-Tipton July Select Yearlings Sale in Kentucky for $32,000. She comes from a stellar female family loaded with blacktype. On the Friday after the sale, it was announced that Kitten’s Joy had passed away at the age of 21 due to a heart attack. The 7-time leading turf sire leaves a legacy of stakes winners, with 48% of those being graded winners. Maybe this filly will be his next…
