Trainer Les Stickler Jr, and Khrystina Bixa tend to our filly.

January 6, 2009 In her last start, Our Khrysty sat patiently along the rail. When jockey Thomas Clifton asked, she responded! She drew clear to win her first stake race. She now has 3 wins in 4 starts, one win a Stakes! Not bad for a $25,000 sale purchase! Our undefeated 2yo filly faced her toughest competition in "The Debutante Stakes" at Presque Isle Downs, a 100k Stake race. She never ran her race, left at the start then wide heading for home.
Our Khrysty made it 2 for 2 by beating a solid group of Allowance horses at Phila Park on 9/2/08. "Our Khrysty" was named for one of our grooms. Khrystina Bixa was very special to all of us at Renpher Stable. She was killed at the age of 24 in June of 2008. What better way to honor our friend than to name our star filly after her. She was her original groom, from the first day the horse arrived at our barn. In her racing debut, Our Khrysty was not only the DRF pick of the race, but was the consensus "Best Bet" of the day! Not bad for a first timer starter. Our Khrysty rewarded us all on 08/02/2008. She got the lead and never looked back winning by an widening 9 lengths against Maiden Special Weights company!
After the hammer fell our way at Fasig Tipton Midlantic 2008.
As Hip # 262, our Newfoundland filly, was purchased at the Fasig Tipton Midlantic Preferred 2yo In Training sale. She's a big, athletic filly, which covers a lot of ground with her long strides. Her Dam had 5 wins earning over $150,000. She has produced 3 foals of racing age, all winners. Her half brother, Bullsbay recently set the track record for a mile at Del Mar on 07/27/2008! |
