Tickin Away 2003 is by Apollo TB out of the First Down Dash mare, Your First Moon. Apollo is still a top producing stallion and proven TB cross to quarter horse mares as well as making his name as a brood mare sire of top runners like El Corona Ried, Apollitical Jess, and Louis Ana Blue Dream. We bought Tickin Away in foal to Ocean Runaway and she had a very nice looking filly on 2/3/11. I liked this breeding because her first dam, Your First Moon was champion 2 yr old filly, SI 96 and won $750,756.and was also producer of 2 black type runners.  Making this breeding even more interesting is that her 2nd dam by Beduino came with big time winners such as Not a Full Moon, SI 104 and won $271,962 and Sunset Dash, SI 102 and won $250,000  both by First Down Dash.                Ocean Runaway is by First Down Dash, carrying on this proven bloodline but more important to me he is out of the Runaway Winner mare, Runaway Wave, adding additional Beduino TB to Tickin Away's bottom side. These crosses have resulted in top speed and big dollar earners. This filly should and could do the same. This year we bred Tickin Away  to Azoom for a Jan 2012 foal.  He is an up and coming stallion with a tremendous race record, SI 107, earnings of $738,136. At stud for only 3 yr. he is listed #1 in stakes winners, #2 in total earnings for his age group, #2 nationally in graded stakes winners in 2010. again we went to Dash for Cash bloodlines  on top and Beduino TB on the bottom - a proven successful cross.
