Full-Sister To Forever Young Arrives At Northern Farm

A full-sister to Japanese Horse of the Year Forever Young (Real Steel) arrived at Northern Farm on March 25, the farm posted on X. A bay just like her famous older brother, the filly is the eighth foal out of Congrats mare Forever Darling.

Forever Young, also a champion in the U.S. after taking the 2025 GI Breeders' Cup Classic, has won two editions of the G1 Saudi Cup among his four victories at the highest level. He was third in last year's G1 Dubai World Cup, and breaks from post six in the 2026 edition on Saturday.

GII Santa Ynez Stakes heroine Forever Darling has produced five winners from six to race. Besides the G1 Tokyo Daishoten hero, she has been represented by G3 Artemis Stakes heorine Brown Ratchet (Kizuna). Her three-year-old Epiphaneia filly Darlinghurst broke her maiden on Valentine's Day, the same day Forever Young added his second Saudi Cup.

Forever Darling also has a two-year-old colt Young Rich (Rey De Oro), who has yet to race. He sold for ¥300,000,000 ($2.027 million) during last July's JRHA Select Sale to Fujita Susumu.

 

フォーエバーヤングの母、フォーエヴァーダーリングが、元気な女の子を出産しました。お父さんはリアルスティールです。

仔馬は撮影前日の3/25に誕生したばかり。放牧地では、お母さんのそばで元気に飛び跳ねたかと思えば、すぐに横になってすやすやと眠る愛らしい姿を見せています。… pic.twitter.com/qlQ0vfHJf6
