Hip 127 in the current Fasig-Tipton Digital sale is this Maryland Thoroughbred #MDBred filly from the first crop of brilliant G1W Speaker's Corner out of a 14-time winning dam!
Her dam No More Excuses, by the legendary Maryland sire and broodmare sire Not For Love, was a $102k yearling that went on to win 14 of 48 starts and $227k . Her first foal is a winner, her 2nd foal was a $30k weanling by Goldencents, and her yearling of '24 by Midshipman brought $50k as a Timonium yearling from Bird Mobberley. No More Excuses is pregnant to Army Mule for '25 and booked back to him.
Speaker's Corner won the G1 Carter with a 114 Beyer for Godolphin (one of 7 triple-digit Beyers that he earned) and this filly is from his first crop at Darley where he stands alongside his sire Street Sense (a thriving sire-of-sires with the likes of McKinzie and Maxfield to his credit). In addition to his racing prowess and sire-line, Speaker's Corner also comes from the deep female family of Round Pond, Highland Falls, Long River, etc.
