To Honor and Serve's First Foal is a Filly

The first reported foal for multiple grade I winner To Honor and Serve   is a bay filly born Jan. 9 at Gainesway Farm near Lexington.

The filly is out of the Dixie Union mare Tempest Treasure, owned by Gainesway Thoroughbreds Ltd.

"The filly is strong with good leg, a lot of bone and substance," Michael Hernon, director of sales at Gainesway, said. "She is good size and is very healthy and well. We look forward to seeing additional first-crop foals by To Honor and Serve in the coming weeks."

This is the third consecutive foal for Tempest Treasure, a daughter of stakes winner Tempest Dancer, who is a full sister to Kentucky Oaks (gr. I) winner Sardula and half sister to grade I winner Imperial Gesture.

Tempest Treasure will be bred back to To Honor and Serve in 2014.

To Honor and Serve stands at Gainewsay, where his 2014 fee is $20,000.
