00:00The Fastest Horse of the Week is brought to you this week by Nashville, one of the fastest
00:06of the many fast sires at Windstar Farm.
00:09After all, in Nashville's career debut, he ran six and a half furlongs and won 14.48
00:15and became a TD in Rising Star.
00:17He followed that up with the fastest six furlongs of that Keeneland fall meet, 109.10, to win
00:22an allowance by almost 10 lengths.
00:24He topped that by setting the six furlong track record at Keeneland, 107.89 on the
00:29Breeders' Cup undercard, faster than the Breeders' Cup sprint later that same day,
00:34by the way.
00:35And at the fairgrounds, Nashville ran the fastest six furlongs of the 21-22 winter meet,
00:41108.61 seconds.
00:43That means Nashville is pretty fast.
00:47And he was pretty fast in the breeding shed, too, where he has been so far.
00:50He bred 204 mares in his first book, 91% of those mares getting into fall.
00:56Nashville's first weanlings will sell this fall.
01:00So while Nashville specialized in blazing sprint speed, our Fastest Horse of the Week
01:05specializes in what we in America would call marathon distances.
01:09We've already talked about him.
01:10His name is Next.
01:11And in that Brooklyn Stakes win, buyer speed figure, career high, 109, a well-deserved
01:19Fastest Horse of the Week nod to Next.
