The first foal sired by G1 Forego winner Emcee was born at Becky Thomas’s Sequel Stallions New York on February 10th. A filly, she was produced from the winning Street Cry mare, Picketline, a half-sister to seven Stakes horses, including Graded winners Valid Expectations and Little Sister. The foal is co-owned by Becky Thomas and Lyn Burleson.

A son of Unbridled’s Song, no other winner of the G1 Forego has run a faster time than Emcee’s 1:21 flat for the seven furlong event. Emcee’s Beyer Speed Figure of 108 in the Forego was the highest of any runner in 2012 at less than a mile. On his dam’s side, Emcee’s half-brother Surfer won the G2 Al Maktoum Challenge Round 1 last month, and half-sister Baffled is the dam of Constitution who won the G1 Donn Handicap on February 7th.

Emcee stands at Sequel Stallions New York for a 2015 fee of $7,500.
