Quiet Mint has never had a registered foal, so not sure. She has not raced since 2001.

Kilmorey is still racing in Canada

Whispered hasn't raced since 2010 and had only placed once in 8 starts.

Gabby American last raced in 2010

Quiet Liberty was never raced.

Stilled had a foal by Elusive Quality in KY this year. A Giant's Causeway last year and a Harlan's Holiday filly named Holiday Peace.

Twice The Lady is racing. She has made 6 start (1-1-2) and has made over $21,000

Purple Heart had a 2011 by Mineshaft, a 2010 by Sky Mesa, a 09 filly by Forest Wildcat named Autumn Queen, 08 by Forest Wildcat named PurplenGold, 07 named BandOfOutsiders.

Quiet April made 1 start in 2009 but there are no live foals reported yet.

Fonda was exported to Ireland and has had 1 foal in 2010 by Invincible Spirit.

Folk had a AP Indy this year, in 2010, in 2009 named Captivating Lass.

Fernald had a 2010 Tale of the Cat filly and in 2009

Expose had a 2010 colt by After Market, 09 by Mineshaft named Mine Own, 08 filly by Ghosterzapper named Speedster, 07 by Mr Greeley named Estrela Greeley, etc

The mares listed with foals by Lanes End stallions may still be at the farm.

every horse is for sale for the right price. You just have to locate the horse and speak with the owner. Unfortunetly for Quiet Mint she doesn't look like she has been producing foals, or atleast registered Thoroughbred foals.

The others maybe a bit easier.

Could that mean that they have not tried to breed with her?

Quiet Mint was not a major winner at the track. She had only 1 win and made less than $7,000. She hardly covered her bills. She is also a 1997 model, which would make her 14. If her owners had not tried breeding her for a racehorse foal by now I doubt they would. If she had any size on her or was a nice horse maybe she was given away or sold as a riding horse. If so there probably not much record of her new owner.

sorry :(

It does not matter if she came last in every race really,or if she was never tried to be bred with that does not matter at all and she is still an ok age for what i need her for,sometimes the older models are alot better than the newer one's,newer models are not made to last.

Don't be sorry i really do appreciate your help you have given me.

Thank You.

Here's another handy tool - you can use the Keeneland "search catalogs" feature. Whispered was listed as an "OUT" at the Keeneland 2010 Breeding Stock sale - but was consigned by Hidden Brook, agent.

Quiet Flight was listed as an "OUT" at the 2011 Keeneland January HOA sale - but was consigned by Lane's End, agent.

You can contact those agents and see if they have any up to date info on those mares' whereabouts at this time. The contact info for the agents is usually in the catalog somewhere.. go to www.keeneland.com

An "OUT" is a horse whose catalog entry fee was paid, the page was built, but the horse was withdrawn from the sale after the books were printed, before the sale started.

Ok thanks for updating me with that,would there be a particular reason for being withdrawn,like a private sale or injury or not thinking they would get what they wanted for her.
