Orphan foal wins at Scioto Downs

She’s Shocking was a fun race mare. What made watching her race even more fun was watching her owners and their family enjoy her each start for seven harness racing seasons while she earned over $362,000. When She’s Shocking was done racing in 2017, it was a natural decision to breed the tough Electric Yankee mare, but the dream was short-lived as she left her second foal an orphan when he was just 8-weeks old.

That colt, Last Shock (Racing Hill), broke his maiden at Eldorado Scioto Downs on Thursday (June 22) – exactly three years to the day after She’s Shocking died. Chris Page drove the gelding to victory for breeders and co-owners Charlie Guiler and Scott Mogan.

“Last Shock made us all proud by winning his first race at Scioto Downs in 1:53 flat,” posted Guiler’s wife Debbie on Facebook. “At least I think I saw he won through all the tears!”

“She colicked, and they did surgery at Ohio State,” explained trainer Mogan, who also trained She’s Shocking during her entire racing career. “She came out of it good, ears up and bright eyed. Kelsey (Grose) picked her up and took her back to Hickory Lane Farm where she had been.

“But two weeks later she got bad again, and we had to make the tough decision (to put her down). It was a tough decision to make cause she was such a great mare for us, but the right decision for her. After, they couldn’t find a nurse mare, so Kelsey pretty much raised him, bottle fed him, at her farm.”

Last Shock reminds Mogan a lot of She’s Shocking – he’s built just like his dam with her same gait.

“Kayne (Kauffman) drove her…and drove him last week and said ‘I really like this colt, he really reminds me so much of her’. He can get off the gate just like her.”

LAST SHOCK REPLAY

Last Shock raced just five times a 2-year-old in 2022 with $7,420 in earnings. So far in 2023 he has six starts and has hit the board four times earning $17,100. Looking forward, Last Shock is eligible to the Buckeye Stallion Series. Mogan thinks he’s going to develop into a pretty nice horse, but if he’s a good and competitive overnight horse, that is fine too.

“Kelsey did a great job taking care of him. He’s grown a lot between his 2-and 3-year-old year. I give all the credit to her.”

Racing is held at Scioto Downs each Tuesday and Wednesday with a 3:15 p.m. first post and Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays with a 5:50 p.m. first post through Saturday, September 16. Follow @SciotoRacing on Twitter for all the details of the 2023 racing season at Eldorado Scioto Downs.
