Mephista

'Mom'

On May 12, 2021, we had to say “Goodbye” to our beautiful Mephista. She was a granddaughter of Secretariat. She was the daughter of Devil His Due (who made almost $4-million on the track) and ASKMYSECRETARY by Secretariat. She had eight babies who all raced. Mephista herself raced at Churchill Downs, Keeneland, and Santa Anita.

 

When Mephista was retired as a brood mare, Dennis Miller brought her to us from California.  She had six amazing years in Arizona, half of them in Cornville with Michael and MaryAnn in a beautiful setting with a pasture which is so fitting of a mare of her stature.

 

Her heart was giving out which caused several other problems so we were kind to let her go.

​

It was humbling and an honor to have her in our lives.

​

RIP Sweet Mephista!
