We bought this colt, originally named “Mighty Souper” and changed his name to “Yo Paul.” Having grown up and raised our family in Philly- the Yo! seemed natural! At the time I was reading a book about St. Paul and his life and that combined with the fact that I hoped to entice Paul Sharp into representing us in the 2025 OBS sale, led me to rename him “Yo Paul”, which coincidently also roughly translates to “I’m Paul” in Espanol.
Having watched the 2021 Forego Stakes, a G1 at Saratoga, where Yaupon was attacked in the deep stretch by Firenze Fire and somehow remained focused enough to prevail to the wire, I was set on coming home with a freshman-year colt from him!
He has progressed much as his father did, and under the skilled breaking of Mary Lightner and her team at Oak Ridge, he has now gone to Paul Sharp for breeze training and sale consignment.
Absolutely cruised in his rehearsal breeze over the Ocala track last Wednesday in 10.1 with a strong, long-striding gallop-out.
His dam “Mighty Souper” was nominated this year for Florida broodmare of the year due to the many accomplishments of Yo Paul’s half-brother “Forever Souper,” himself nominated for Florida Horse of the Year as a Champion older Male/Male turf pro, winning 5 out of 8 starts in 2024 and he’s $4,000 short of a career $500K in winnings!
Yo!! Check out Yo Paul at the upcoming OBS March Two Year Olds in Training Sale!
Yo Paul breezed today at OBS in Ocala getting ready for the sale on 3/11/25
We are thrilled to announce that Honor Mags will be competing at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, Florida, on 02/08/2025. This marks a significant opportunity for Honor Mags to showcase his talent on a prestigious stage.
On 01/29/2025, Paraclete underwent surgery for a P1 non-displaced fracture in his ankle. The procedure was a success, and we’re optimistic about his recovery. Paraclete is expected to be back in action in about five weeks. We’re looking forward to his return to the track and can’t wait to see this champion back in form!
Roscoe Village is gearing up for the next chapter in her career. Next month, she’ll be heading to Kentucky to be bred to Cyberknife, one of the most exciting young stallions at Spendthrift Farm.
A multiple Grade 1 winner and son of Gun Runner, Cyberknife brings speed, stamina, and versatility to the equation—making him an ideal match for Roscoe Village. With her grit and athleticism combined with his powerhouse pedigree, this pairing has the potential to produce something special.
We’ll be keeping a close eye on Roscoe’s journey and looking forward to what’s next!
