The first foal for three-time Grade I winner Mind Control (Stay Thirsty) was reported born Thursday, Jan. 4, at Irish Hill Farm in Stillwater, New York. The filly, who is also the first foal out of the winning mare Gentle Annie (Freud), was bred by Blue Streak Racing LLC.
“She looks just like her daddy,” said Irish Hill's Rick Burke. “We all like her a lot. One of her owners was out here and commented that she looks just like her sire. That's a good thing. If they all come out looking like him we'll have some runners.”
For his first season in 2023, Mind Control set New York records for mares bred with 190 and number of mares in foal with 171. Winner of the GI Cigar Mile H., the GI H. Allen Jerkens S., and the GI Hopeful S., Mind Control will stand the 2024 season at Rockridge Stud for $8,500 LFSN as a joint venture between Irish Hill/Dutchess View Farm, Waldorf Farm, and Hidden Lake Farm.
