Kacchan - TM stud (Steward approved)

Post by Ma Springs »

Kacchan 
Go West x Crafty Kitty (Mastercraftsman)

32: 9-11-6
$895,500
Highest SF: 95
Soundness: Somewhat Unsound
Fee: $10,000


So, I've retired Kacchan (my daughter picked the name, don't ask me! ☺) at the age of 7. He is my first homebred to stand at stud and, altough his pedigree is a little wierd (at best), I’m very fond of him. 💙 He has been so consistent throughout his career, never finished out of the money.

Kacchan freak peaked at 4, and had his best season as a 6 yo when he won the G1 ⭐Hong Kong Champions Mile⭐ (link to Nicole Marie's awesome hero article: Click) and the G2 East India Stakes. He has also placed and showed in several G1 and G2 races from the age of 2.

I've done a handful of hypos, and they are not great but not too bad:
(Flat A to The Wheel of Time, just for fun 😊, edit: and to a couple of my newly retired hens as well)
A- to a Saturnalia blue hen
A- to a Of the Great Ones blue hen (that hypos B+ to a couple of cheaper studs that I've used before, so ok Kacchan)
A- to a Legion of Dreams star mare
A- to a Fearless Spirit formidable
B+ to a lower hypoing star (that hypos A to Nightwatch, A- to Superbia and Tithanos, B+ to Crystal Ocean and Under Stars)
B+ to a random formidable

Kacchan is currently standing at Tosca Stables Texas, where his offspring hopefully one day will be able to take part in the generous stakes program by Carolyn Eaton.

Introduction fee: $10,000

Please send him a mare or two, it would make my day! I'll cross my fingers he can produce something raceable! Thank you! 🙂

Edit: Steward approved with this filly.

I have been waiting anxiously for this guy. His sire had very impressive stats, high average/median earnings compared to stud fee, and he was great value for people who just want profitable horses. Hopefully this guy will be the same way.

I'm super-stoked (like Nicole it seems :) ) to see him retired to stud. I've had an alert on him. Congrats.

I still have a few unbred mares, I'll try a couple with him.

Pleased to have 6 Kacchan foals from 5 breedings and look forward to see how they gallop. Also will be sending a few of my hens to him next year who already had their Y64 foals.

One last bump before the last mares of the season retires. Send him one, he will be happy! 😊

Thanks to all who have supported him this year!

I'd like it on record I finished with like 16 hours to spare

A new record for The Steward. Way to go.
I however, backslud (sic) by breeding more than 10 formidable things in the last 3 hours. A new record for me! :-)

Now back to your regularly schedule program: Kacchan - TM stud
