Leslie's Lady, the dam of four-time champion Beholder (Henny Hughes), Grade I-winning sophomore Mendelssohn (Scat Daddy) and Grade I winner and top sire Into Mischief (Harlan's Holiday), has been bred to Not This Time (Giant's Causeway), Taylor Made Stallions announced Wednesday. One of the most influential broodmares in recent history, Leslie's Lady has a yearling colt by Medaglia d'Oro and foaled a filly by American Pharoah this season.
“Not This Time is a great-looking horse that was extremely talented,” said Fred Mitchell, owner of Leslie's Lady. “The reports on his first foals this year have been excellent, and we wanted to get back to that sire line, which has been so successful.”
Owned by his breeder, Albaugh Family Stables, for his racing career, Not This Time was a graded stakes winner at two and was a neck second to champion Classic Empire (Pioneerof the Nile) in the 2016 GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile. The half-brother to MGISW Liam's Map (Unbridled's Song) was retired soon after with a soft tissue injury and entered stud in 2017 at Taylor Made.
