TWO NEW GRADE 1 STARS FOR INDIAN CHARLIE!


$500,000 Grade 1 Spinster S.
1 1/8 miles, Keeneland 10/09/05


Pampered Princess claimed the greatest victory of her already sterling career with a commanding 1 3/4 length victory in Keeneland’s $500,000 Spinster Stakes on Sunday.  Facing a full field of top class fillies and mares in Keeneland’s definitive prep for the Breeder’s Cup Distaff, Pampered Princess proved she belongs in the upper echelon of her division with her resounding win.  One of a remarkable ten 2005 stakes winners for Indian Charlie, Pampered Princess will next represent her sire in the G1 Breeders Cup Distaff at Belmont Park on October 29th!


Congratulations to owner Martin Cherry, breeder’s Dr. and Mrs. R. Herman Playforth, trainer Martin Wolfson and jockey Eddie Castro!


$300,000 Grade 1 Ancient Title BCup S.
6 furlongs, Santa Anita 10/8/05


Pampered Princess’s win came just a day after Indian Charlie’s talented son Indian Country, a powerful winner of Del Mar’s Pirate’s Bounty Stakes in his last start, ran a monster of a race to be beaten by little more than a head in Santa Anita’s G1 Ancient Title Breeder’s Cup at 6 furlongs on Saturday.  This tremendous effort in Santa Anita’s preiminent prep for the G1 Breeder’s Cup Sprint establishes Indian Country as one of the west coast’s superior sprinters and as a colt with a big future!
