Windemere Skye
« on: September 27, 2026, 06:22:43 PM »
I am sure few of you follow racing in the Maritimes. But I have to acknowledge this filly, who has remained undefeated at 2 and3, having recorded her 23rd straight today, setting a track record at Summerside. Even won a 2-heat affair in her previous start.
No haters, please, just recognition for a career which has sent her over $200,000 in lifetime earnings, a real feat up there.

Congrats to the connections.  tmbz1  That is an amazing string of wins.  Woodmere Rock It is a 2YO Maritimer for TheStable.   He is 9 for 9 I believe.  A friend of mine owns 10%.

This is truly an amazing feat. You would think you would have some bad racing luck, or just a bad day somewhere along the way. Congrats to all the connections.  I think the modern day record is 28 straight???

I’d be interested in how you came to that conclusion.
I have no details on Watts other than he wins a lot up there.
Earl Watts is training a horse that I originally bred and Erv Miller trained before Erv sold him to Maritime guys earlier this year.  Horse is doing fairly well up there running for $4000- 5000 purses.

Her win in 1:53.2, winning the Lady Slipper Stakes at Summerside set a new track record for 3yo pacing fillies-----and broke the track records for colts too, by 1/5 of a second. She has broken/set other track records as well. Does that mean she can absolutely go with the big girls? Nope. Simply opinion right now. Some horses have left the Maritimes and were able to compete in the big leagues. Others have not. But, 23 in a row, regardless of where, is impressive.

Hmmm... let's see....

Rene Allard and Earl Watts are best friends. It's even "Facebook Official"  ngc3

Here's a video of them together at a "kitchen party" last year, straight from Rene's Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/reel/1720930845208382

Earl Watts' Windemere Farms stands several stallions in PEI that were Allard's former champions, including Keystone Velocity, Somewhere Fancy (sire of Windemere Skye), Muscle Through It (who was "owned" earlier in 2026 by Rene's mother), and Malicious.

Also, look at Gigi's dream exactly one year between races...

August 15, 2025 @ 7/8th's mile track Hoosier Park: Timed in 1:51.4
August 16, 2026 @ 1/2 mile track Charlottetown: Timed in 1:52.2
(The similar times are impressive when you consider the track speed rating at Charlottetown is over 3 seconds slower than Hoosier...) tmbz1

Good research. I see the connection now. 
Don’t forget his 151:4 was as a 3 year old and was timed in 151:1 at 3 also.

Trackmaster rating at time of sale was 84.85
Trackmaster rating now 87.63
3 length improvement from time of sale in March- not huge.
