Bint
Marscay at Old Friends
(1990-2019)
Courtesy
Old Friends website upon Binty's arrival in 2013
The
mare Bint Marscay adds an international flair to Old Friends’s
herd. Foaled in Australia in 1990, the daughter of Marscay is
out of the New Zealand bred Eau Detoile, who herself is the
daughter of Irish sire Sir Tristram.
A
beautiful chestnut, Bint Marscay (or just Binty to her
friends) was a champion 2-year-old Down Under having broken
her maiden in the Warwick Farm Stakes and winning the GR3
Canterbury just a month later. At three she went on to win the
Tooheys Golden Slipper Stakes (GR1) and the Magic Night Stakes
(GR2). At 4 she was still in top form, capturing the Chirnside
Side Stakes (GR2), among others. Binty made her way to the
U.S. to be a broodmare at The Vinery in Lexington. There she
had only a few offspring as she was plagued with reproductive
issues, but her few babies were, like their Mom, top notch.
Her outstanding daughter Bollinger was a GR1 winner and the
dam of Louisiana Derby winner and Kentucky Derby contender
Friesian Fire. These days her global status is behind her, as
she spends her days with some of our other great race mares.
