It was nearly a tandem precision landing for the two foals by last year's German Champion Sire ADLERFLUG, whose name translates as Flight of the Eagle or Eagle's Flight. However, NICELLA's bay colt took a tiny bit longer, but it is likely he instead has inherited the stayer qualities his big brother, G3 winner and German Champion Stayer NIKKEI was famous for.
Tiger Hill daughter PRAIRIE PEARL (photo) was a tick faster and foaled a bay filly on the previous day, who is her second foal by Adlerflug and her fourth overall.
This year, PRAIRIE PEARL will visit Lord of England while NICELLA is booked to Adlerflug again. |
