She does. Bang, that is.


In her time at Otsego Farms, In Spirit has produced some very solid foals.  Kit Fisto has been the only stinker in the bunch and even he wasn't hopeless, although he has yet to notch a victory.  Her most recent foal, the little bay filly She Bangs, has created some buzz in the stable. 

Sired by the legendary turf stayer Sinking Fear, She Bangs looks like a chip off the old block, except for one thing... she is indifferent on turf.  Odd indeed when you consider that her dam In Spirit also had a distinct fondness for grass.  Ahh, the vagaries of breeding...
