DIGGAM
Tikram x Gold Digger
[Created x Created] x [Golden Wonder x Yellow Digger] Bloodlines
† Tikram is a sire that is unknown to ARS, all we were told was that he was a miler racehorse with a calm disposition. † Gold Digger was a mare that had made her debut with ARS when it was still called Sunshine Paradise Farms. She was ARS' first three year old champion and grade one racehorse. We had sold Gold Digger just before she had retired and finally found her again at Firebrand Stables with a young foal (Diggam). We purchased the pair back and we are now looking forward to seeing how Diggam will perform under our colors. |
Personality
† Diggam is a true sweetheart. He definitely does not have his dam's fiery temper. Diggam is a bit on the small side but his big heart seems to make up for it. He will try to please his rider no matter what. Diggam was an easy horse to break and train and seems to enjoy running at a mile the most. He enjoys long rub downs and petting and is very affectionate. He likes to rub his head on a person's back. So when we say "Watch your back!" around Diggam it doesn't mean he is going to bite you - he just loves to rub his head. Weird? Definitely. If this horse does not succeed on the track it will not be for the lack of trying - his heart is just too big. |
PROSPECT RECORD: 1: 0-1-0 (100%)_
RACE RECORD: 5: 1-2-1 (80%) Current season HOTY points: 1 Grade Five Racehorse Running Style: Mid-Pack
Preferred Distance: 7-10 furlongs Track Preference: Turf Regular Rider: Kirsten Jade Racing Style
† Diggam is a pack horse. He stays in the middle of the pack and runs his heart out. He is not super quick out of the gate, nor is he slow. He is steady and predictable. He prefers to run on the turf track and excels at the 7 or 8 furlong races. His running style perfectly fits an 8 furlong race, any shorter than 7 and he doesn't have enough time to get to the front and anything past 9 furlongs he starts to lose steam. Either way, no matter how the race plays out Diggam always digs in his heels and tries his hardest. |
