Palace Malice x Special Thing ’21 colt
Look at this leggy colt! By new sire sensation and CURLIN’s best son PALACE MALICE, who Todd Pletcher called "the most versatile horse I have ever trained, and one of the best." Here’s why: 2014 Eclipse Award Finalist; six-time Graded stakes winner of $2,691,135; the first Belmont (G1) winner in more than 30 years to win the Met Mile (G1) as well; the only older male of 2014 to win four consecutive Graded stakes on the dirt; the HIGHEST Beyer of 2014 up to a mile, and the HIGHEST of 2014 at 1 1/8 miles; and posted 8 consecutive triple-digit Beyers. No wonder people were fighting to breed mares to him, and he kicked off his career as a sire by being named as a Top 10 Freshman Yearling Sire by average ($126k+) and had red-hot two-year-olds sell for as much as $850k at OBS. Then it got even better: PALACE MALICE was the only first-crop stallion of 2019 to sire a G1 Breeders’ Cup Winner in Eclipse Award finalist STRUCTOR, undefeated winner of the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf (G1). Recent stakes winners also include TDN Rising Star MR. MONOMOY (G2), FLY ON ANGEL (G3), LIKE THE KING (G3), MISS BRAZIL, CRYSTALLE, ICE PRINCESS, and TALKIN MALICE.
This attractive colt is the very first foal out of the young money-winning and royally-bred TAPIT mare SPECIAL THING, who’s a half-sister to the stakes-winning SAMARA. This colt’s second dam is a full sister to two impressive stakes horses in Dark Cheetah (G3) and Shadow of Storm, plus is a half-sister to another black-type performer in Mogador as well as graded stakes producer TARFAYA (dam of STORMING INTI [G2/G3]).
