Personality
Anodyne is nobody's fool. Manipulative and harsh, this colt is not one to be caught off guard around. Watch your fingers and hands and always be on your toes when dealing with Dye. We were nervous that Augusto's killer nature would prevail, but his dam's good nature, tempered the killer attitude of his sire's nature. Though not a killer, like his sire Augusto, Dye is not a horse you want to go on a trail ride with. His mind is always thinking, you can see it in his cool exterior and intelligent eyes. It takes an expert hand to control this boy because you must always be thinking at least two steps ahead. This cunning however comes into play though on the track. He will observe his competition and think ahead of how to best and crush the competition on the track...and he has the stamina and patience to extract his revenge in the race. Dye is a versatile runner, depending upon the field and the distance, but one thing that never fails him is his lightening quick break at the gate (inherited from both sides of his pedigree). So usually he will either break to the front and tire others by toying with the pace or he will stalk the leaders, biding his time to deliver a strong closing challenge.
History and Pedigree Information
Back in the day, IGS (former name of Intrepid Racing, Inc.) got a reserve to any of Rockstar/Kingfischer Racing Studs and we knew without a doubt which horse we wanted, Augusto. Now deceased, Intrepid got one of the last remaining straws of the legendary Augusto. We thought hard about which mare to use and we were torn between Sun Chaser, a Djerba lined mare, and our Rosalind (a proven broodmare). After weighing the pros and cons we decided to go with Sun Chaser.
Augusto is a G1 legend and Twilight Stakes winner and the sire of multiple champions. His most well known offspring being Augusta, the dam of Warlock, Atalanta, Contessa, Anarchi, and Apollo Bear. Augusto is also the sire of Bucephalus and Requiem (proven broodmare - dam of Deadly Desires, Nightshade, Canjun Moon, Seraphim and Carmilla).
Sun Chaser was bred from Fail Scene Stables and became an accomplished G3 racer, but unfortunately in her 3rd racing year her career ended due to IGS' closing. Her bloodlines however are nothing to sneer at. Sired by Determination and out of Djerba's Sunshine, she has proven and rare lines.
Determination is an SS bred stallion and G1 racer. He won the Twilight Stakes and is the sire of Impossible Determination, a Twilight Stakes Placer and more importantly the sire of GS Gallant Prince who was the June Dawn Treader Cup winner, Breeders' Cup Classic winner, Preakness stakes winner,Fathom, Golden Memories and Major Horse Shows Champion Millionaire.
Djerba's Sunshine is a respected broodmare owned by Fail Scene Stables. Her sire is none other than Djerba, a legend and multiple Twilight Stakes winner. Her dam, Suncrest Lilly is a respected broodmare owned by none other than Matabon at Godolphin Stables
