Authentic became a proud papa yesterday:

I know he has fans on this site. He had a total of 229 mares declared in foal and stands for a $70k live foal fee. Nothing correlates with a high pregnancy rate like the stud fee. The little guy in the picture looks like he'll be a grey; what do you think.

In other news, Maximum Security also had his first foal this week. Since he was more humbly bred, and had a bit of a cloud over his trainers, ahem, methods, it isn't obvious how well his progeny will fair on the track. We'll see. We do know with Authentic that Into Mischief's bloodline can sire sire's.

The Pegasus is shaping up to be a two horse exacta, Knicks Go over Life Is Good. They had to send out a second round of invitations to fill the race.
