Broodmare profile - Shattered Record

Shattered Record won the last two races in her career.

And, with a record of 10-2-2-2 and over $400,000 in earnings last season, it looked like she probably had another successful season in her.

However, in light of the new rules that effectively eliminated the list mares, it was decided that Shattered Record would become our lead broodmare.

She has the blood of the great Secretariat flowing in her veins and it is apparent that she has talent when you study her AR:

The only area where she was below average is consistency, and that wasn't a huge problem during her career. She finished up at 32-8-9-3 $1,206,175.

Her first offspring, Shatterstar, by Nightwing looks to be pretty solid all around. He inherited great stamina from his parents. We are considering War Machine as a match next season, although the name Vampirical has also come up as a potential good fit.

Regardless which high-profile stud we settle on, we are confident that Shattered Record will produce top quality foals in the future.
