00:00
Every sire hopes to have a son to follow in his footsteps.
00:04
An impressive debut.
00:06
For Munnings, that son is Jack Christopher.
00:09
Jack Christopher to win the champagne.
00:11
Unbeaten grade one winner at two.
00:14
Dual grade one winner at three.
00:17
And he is pouring it on here.
00:19
It is Jack Christopher winning the grade one H. Allen Jerkins Memorial.
00:25
Jack Christopher.
00:30
Well it's time for the Coolmore Stallion of the Week.
00:33
And this week it is Jack Christopher.
00:35
His first folds are on the ground.
00:37
And they are cracker jacks indeed.
00:40
Here's a look at some of them.
00:42
And we're going to start off with a colt out of Laurel Canyon.
00:45
Bred by I Hope Farms LLC.
00:48
Now let's take a look at a colt out of, not by, out of Wise Strike.
00:54
Who is bred by Black Ridge Stables.
00:57
And finally, we're going to take a look at a filly out of My Sugar Bear.
01:00
Bred by Alan Poindexter.
01:02
Zoe, you have talked a lot on this podcast about how much you like Jack Christopher.
01:07
What a good mover he is.
01:09
What a good racehorse he was.
01:11
What do you think about his folds?
01:12
What have you seen?
01:13
Cracker jack.
01:14
Did you just make that up, Bill?
01:15
I kind of like that.
01:16
No, somebody above my pay grade came up with that.
01:20
Well, I'm going to agree with them.
01:23
Cracker jack is a very apt word.
01:25
Listen, Jack Christopher is a son of Munnings.
01:28
And the one thing that's really surprised me by all the foals that we've seen thus far,
01:33
obviously they're all very cute and I've never seen a really uncute foal.
01:37
But he's throwing foals with a lot of leg, which is really what I want to see from Jack Christopher.
01:42
Because he was more of a blocky son of Munnings.
01:45
And the fact that he's able to throw these babies with a good bit of leg,
01:49
they look very athletic.
01:51
And there are some beautiful pictures of these foals dancing and bouncing around the paddocks.
01:56
I like what I've seen so far.
01:57
I really do.
01:58
So in the human world, there are ugly babies.
02:01
You've never seen an uncute foal?
02:04
No, and I've seen plenty of ugly babies.
02:06
You are correct.
02:07
But there is no such thing as an ugly foal.
02:11
Other than I mentioned before, one that I have bred that looks like one.
02:15
But no, foals are very cute.
02:18
I obviously have no children.
02:20
Jack Christopher, a three-time grade one winner by Munnings, stands at Coolmore.
