Fans of liver chestnuts — take a look at the lovely Dilly, who is a great sport horse prospect! Although her racing career began auspiciously with a 14 length victory in her MSW debut, Dilly’s form has tailed off. That, combined with races in her condition not going, means that her connections are reluctantly offering her to the perfect situation for her second career. She has an enticing pedigree for sport. Her sire, Honorable Dillon is a son of Tapit — which brings in the A. P. Indy sire line — and out of a mare from the Blushing Groom line. Oh Dilly is out of a mare who brings in the Gone West, Cox’s Ridge, and In Reality sire lines. Dilly is described as athletic and easy to ride. Her build and cattiness may be attractive to barrels and polo riders but her trainer believes that she is an open book suitable for any discipline. She has good ground manners, no stable vices and her trainer has turned her out with a herd without problems. While she has plenty of energy on the track, she is reported to be “a different horse” when she is at the farm, something that is true for many racehorses. Dilly has clean legs and sports an adorable dishy head, prompting her trainer to call her a “little guernsey cow”. Serious buyers will be required to provide ironclad references.
