In light of the recent release of the War Machine AR, Otsego Farms connections have decided to follow suit with Nightwing.
Dubbed by Otsego trainers as "The Horse without Fear" and "The Iron Horse", Nightwing ran 46 career races in 3 seasons, and never ran a race that wasn't a GR1 or a GR2.
He was a classic stayer who started slow and had a fierce finishing kick. In the breeding shed, he is most notable as the sire of the Bonai superstar, Daredevil.

I cant really knock this boy as a stallion ... So far ive got 2 foals from him 1 colt ( Bad Webber )and 1 filly ( Powerful Destroyer ) both say likes alot of distance ... Both can run on either surface .. I guess the only " bad " thing is that the filly ( Powerful Destroyer )dosnt mature till late 4-5 ( yes Jim thats why she hasnt had a race yet and wont for awhile ) but i can wait
Foxie
I've had decent luck with him as well Foxie. Shatterstar and Starfire are both nice distance horses and I'm very hopeful that Crossbones will be as well. I'm gonna try to produce more Nightwing foals in the future, but it's kinda hard because I need to get as many War Machine's and Union Jack's as I can also. All three are good 16 furlong options.
