Otsego Farms is overdue for a bona fide superstar. We're hoping that long wait will end in 2013 with the introduction of War Hammer.
The imposing 17hh light gray colt will debut for Otsego Farms next season and it won't be a moment to soon for our liking. He's out of Shattered Record, who has produced a couple of talented horses in her first two tries, Shatterstar and Starfire. Both of whom were sired by Nightwing.
War Hammer as hinted by his name, was sired by the incomparable War Machine. This has considerably raised the bar on expectations. He's been a little slow to mature, so he may not hit the track until very late next year, but we expect at least a couple of tuneups before turning him fully loose in the 2014 season.

I seem to remember the hype before ULTRON came out also.
"Keep your eyes open for this one though. The blood doesn't get any bluer, and his name is TIGHT."
The name is pretty tight though
Hyping your own horses is the responsibility of every owner. And, the jury is still out on Ultron. He'll get another few races to get himself sorted out.
Besides, is this hype? I just said that we're hoping for an overdue superstar.
