00:00Spicetown, Bunnings, Echotown.
00:10It's Echotown for Jotalimo and Echotown races away.
00:15And Echotown is drawing away in the stretch.
00:18Echotown wins the Allenturken Stakes.
00:21A sire line so prolific it repeats itself.
00:25Echotown.
00:30It's time for the Coolmore Stallion of the Week.
00:32And this week, that is Echotown.
00:34Echotown's first two-year-olds went on sale two weeks ago at OBS March.
00:38From a $5,000 stud fee, they sold for fees of $130,000, $120,000, and $110,000.
00:44And why not?
00:45He was a grade-one winning sprinter by Spicetown
00:48and a half-brother to the champion two-year-old filly, Echo Zulu.
00:52Zoe, you saw the Echotowns at OBS.
00:54What did you think of them?
00:55I like them.
00:56In fact, I'm going to, like, do a little plug right now
00:59because the team of TMZ, Tesha, Marrette Farrell, and myself,
01:05we call ourselves TMZ, or except at the end of the sale, which is too much Zoe,
01:09we bought one at the end of the Keeneland sale for $17,000.
01:13He's in training down in Ocala with Nellie Breeden,
01:17a.k.a. Gladwell, on their farm,
01:19and we're actually pointing him to the OBS June sale.
01:22I think they're going to need a little bit more time,
01:24which is why he's going to go to the June sale.
01:26But I've really liked what I've seen from them.
01:28They're good movers.
01:29They look like they can go two turns.
01:32They're not actual sprinter.
01:34They don't have a sprinter-type body, or at least ours doesn't.
01:38So I'm really excited.
01:39And, you know, he's a half-to-champion.
01:41He's a grade-one winner.
01:43His half-sister is a multiple grade-one winner.
01:45She should have won the Breeders' Cup sprint.
01:48And I'm very, very excited for ours going to OBS June.
01:53So a quick plug for you.
01:55Echo Town stands at Coolmore for just $5,000.
