Hit the Skyis approved without comment.
In Sweden, Bold Eagle has produced the following mares in his first two crops:
- Dontlooseallmoney, 11.0ak, $214,750, 3rd in Svenskt Trav-Oaks
- Globalizer, 10.9ak, SEK 1,211,000, winner of the short E3
In France, he is the sire of the most successful mare in the 4-year-old crop,Green Grass, who has earned €469,550 after victories in races including the Criteruium des Jeunes.
Modern Gliding Light was the second most expensive mare at auction in North America in 2011. She comes from a very strong sibling group and her dam consistently produces offspring that are contenders in the major North American races. This guarantees a high breeding value for Hit the Sky after his racing career, with his cross of the best bloodlines from North America and France. The dam has started with 4-year-oldEqual To None (3 wins in 5 starts) and 2-year-old full brotherGliding Eagle, who has shown great talent and is qualified.
