More stalls were seen being cleared out in the Intrepid Racing section.
Rumors have been confirmed that IR Inc. has indeed picked up a new yearling to race alongside their only current yearling Nightshade.
Livin' the Jazz is a black Y10 born colt out of G1 mare Livin' the Dream (dam of G1 Once Upon a Dream sired by Merry Bey King) sired by G1 racer, Jazzman who retired with 80% consistency and won major titles like the Breeder's Cup Mile.
When asked about how they felt about this last minute purchase from Akita Rose's reclaiming sale, Nicholas Landing replied: "We are very pleased and couldn't be more excited to have this well-bred foal come reside at IR. It will definitely be good for Nightshade to have some in-house competition."
But a soon-to-be two year old wasn't their only acquisition...
Intrepid Racing also picked themselves up some blood-stock, buying Seattle Slew. This older stallion is a well-lined dark bay that is a half sibling to HOF mare Sweet Stalker.
It looks as though IR is stepping back into the game and not just on the race track..
