This is another mare with a lovely dam-line and the family includes Grade 3 Cape Summer Stayers Handicap Golden Oriole, 8-time winner and Graded placed Mantovano, Syon, Noblewood, Hundred Acre Wood, With Pleasure and sire Free Will. This is an interesting mating in that the second dam of Terra Firma, Free Verse is also the fourth dam of Fort Beluga - and with this family having such success with Fort Wood, Fort Beluga seems to be the perfect match here - it's unfortunate that he passed away earlier this year as his foals this year are impressive.
