First Foal Arrives For Darley's GISW Speaker's Corner

Speaker's Corner (Street Sense), who stands at Godolphin's Darley division in Lexington, Kentucky, sired a filly Jan. 18–his first reported foal–for breeder Airdrie Stud, the stallion's farm said in a release Friday afternoon.

The new filly is out of the Upstart mare Gratz Park, who is a half-sister to GSW Rich Mommy (Algorithms).

“We are overjoyed to see such a nice first foal by Speakers Corner out of the Upstart mare Gratz Park,” said Ben Henley, Airdrie's General Manager. “She has a ton of quality and within a few hours of being born was running laps around the stall!”

Speaker's Corner's top-level wins included the GI Carter H. in which he earned a 114 Beyer. Only Flightline (Tapit) ran a better number over the past four years.

In addition, his 109 Beyer as a 3-year-old matched the highest number out of the trio of 2021 sophomore finalists for Eclipse Award honors.
