are going to breed good mares. Once you get to a horse’s 2-year-old year, however, all the guesswork is taken out of it. You have got to perform at that point.
“One of the things we felt about the offspring of Jess Good Candy is that they were all good-sized horses and once we watched them through the first part of the year, we came to the conclusion that one would expect: he is going to sire horses that want a route of ground,” Wise continued.
He is going to get horses that want 350 yards and beyond. Once you get past 400 yards, these horses really excel. The reality of it is you are probably not going to win a 300-yard futurity in March with a Jess Good Candy. But the reality is every $1 million race we compete in is 350 yards or more and those races fit Jess Good Candy very well. He is a deserving Champion first-crop sire, and we are excited about the future with him.”
