The Rock Says was the fourth foal born at Sagamore Farm in 2016! Out of Hit Squad (More Than Ready – My Special Secret) colt by Uncle Mo was born on February 5 at 5:20 am. This is Hit Squad’s first foal. Hit Squad had many impressive starts during her racing career and won a Starter Allowance race at Belmont Park in 2014. Our historian Sue Kenney has a special place in her heart for both Hit Squad and “Rocky”. She was even there to welcome him the morning he was born!

The Rock Says is now training at Churchill Downs in Kentucky with trainer Horacio De Paz. We are excited to have the Nexus Racing Club supporting him through his journey as a racehorse.
