Manistique (foaled 1995 in Kentucky) is an American Thoroughbred racehorse. Manistique won eleven races all in California.
Background
Bred and raced by
hands. Thoroughbred Times reported that she was a "high-strung mare, whose excitability has been her undoing in three disappointing efforts out of state."[2]
Racing career
Conditioned for racing by
Bayakoa Handicap
by three lengths.
In February 2000, the then five-year-old Manistique earned her third Grade I victory in the
Santa Maria Handicap while carrying a career-high 125 pounds.[4]
It was to be her last race as she later injured herself during a workout and was retired.
Broodmare
Owner Marshall Naify died on April 19, 2000, and his estate sold Manistique to
Team Valor.[7]
