EYE FOR CORONA & MJ FARMS
Eye For Corona, the dam of Eye Am King, fits the description of the kind
of mare Mac is talking about for their breeding program. Mac tells us how she came to MJ Farms. “Eye For Corona
was extremely fast, and she is one of
the few mares that has earned a million dollars without winning the All American Futurity. She made a million one. Julianna (Hawn Holt) paid a lot of money for her when she bought her, and we watched her run. Mike Joiner had trained her early in her career, and he was training for us at the time. She was an extremely fast mare, impeccably bred by Corona Cartel and out of a really good Mr Eye Opener mare.
