Northview Partners with Beyond The Wire
Northview Stallion Station in Chesapeake
City has partnered with Beyond Te Wire to provide financial assistance for sanctuary horses, i.e., retired Toroughbred racehorses that can- not move on to second careers. Northview will donate 5% of the stud fees collected from contracts of stallions wholly owned by Northview or from the shares it owns in other stal- lions that stand at the farm. “Sanctuary horses need

foundation stallion, Duellglanz, who was on Te Equiery’s December 2006 cover when he was named Te Equiery’s Stallion of Distinction. On his sire Gaudi’s side, there is the inter-
national dressage superstar Totilas (Gribaldi x Lominka) and Annabel (De Nero x Alina). Gaudi is a popular sire, with foals being born around the world. What makes Royal Graffiti unique, however, is his coloring and Paint lines. “His strength is in his pedigree,” said House of her new colt. “We don’t know what the future will hold for him of course but his lineage is second to none.” When initially looking into registering her
foal, House first contacted the North Ameri- can KWPN but encountered resistance because Fancy Ruler (Dressen Fancy’s dam) is 1/8 Paint and 7/8 Toroughbred. “Tey said they were looking into things but never got back to me,”

Equiery 2012 Cover Baby Produces Unique Foal
Many Equiery readers will remember the
striking black and white filly that graced the August 2012 cover with her long super model legs and inquisitive gaze. Te image of Saintly Appointed was the 2012 Foal Photo Contest winner and now, her latest foal is already turn- ing heads around the world. Te 2021 colt Royal Graffiti, bred by Mr. and Mrs. William House, was recently approved for Book A with KWPN, bringing a new set of Paint Warm- blood lines to the international KWPN book. On his dam’s side, the colt’s lines include
Maryland-bred stallion Saint Sandro (Stedinger x SES Hailey) and Dressen Fancy (Duellglanz x Fancy Ruler). Dressen Fancy was bred by the late Angela Barilar of High Point Hanoverians on the Eastern Shore. Te mare is by Barilar’s

Equiery 2012 cover foal Saintly Appointed (Saint Sandro x Dressen Fancy) is now a broodmare that produced the KWPN paint Royal Graffiti colt (right) in 2021. The colt’s lines on his dam’s side are deep with Maryland-breds while his sire is international super star Gaudi (Totilas x Annabel).
House explained. So she made a call to the KWPN registry in Holland and sent them the foal’s pedigree. “Tey said ‘wow’ and ‘no prob- lem’ so he now has European papers, which is actually better for him in the long run.” House, who operates a small private breed-
ing farm on the Eastern Shore, has already had several offers for the sale of Royal Graffiti based on his pedigree alone. But House, who is excited about the foal’s future, said, “this one is staying!”
MHBA Launches New Incentives for Breeders
On December 8, the Maryland Horse Breeders Association announced that the Maryland Bred Fund will implement additional incentives that have been approved by the Maryland Racing Commission. In addition to increasing breeder and stallion bonuses on all stakes races in Mary- land, there are two new plans to incentivize and reward breeders of Maryland-sired horses. First, beginning January 1, 2022, an addi-
Effective January 1, 2022, pending review from the Maryland Racing Com- mission, there will be an assessment of 1.5% on the price of a claimed horse at Maryland racetracks. Tis assessment will go directly to the Beyond Te Wire program. Te new initia- tive is similar to one that has been used in New York by the New York Tor-
oughbred Horsemen’s Association and New York Racing Association since 2019. Te Maryland program will be “opt out,” meaning the 1.5% assessment will be charged unless an owner/ownership group signs an opt-out form that is available in the Maryland Toroughbred Horsemen’s Association office at Laurel Park.
