When Henny Hughes started 2011, he picked right up where he left off in 2010, adding yet another winner on January 1 to the five he had in December alone, giving him 21 winners from his first crop so far.
All Quiet proved much the best in the six furlong maiden at Aqueduct with a strong finishing rally that was stopped short by the sudden drift of Paradise by the C. The brown filly adroitly avoided mishap under new jockey Cornelio Velasquez, and dug right back in, unfazed and unasked, to close within a length at the wire and shorter after it. The obvious disqualification lifted her to the win for breeder-owner Lawrence Goichman, who had changed trainers to Richard Schosberg from Seth Benzel after her last race, in which she finished a close second.
Goichman bred All Quiet in New York from the Alleged mare Quiet Rumour, a full sister to Stakes winner Contested Bid, and a half-sister to Stakes winner Only Queens.
Among the 20 other winners Henny Hughes is represented by are Stakes horses Fort Hughes (a TDN Rising Star), and Wealthy Aviator. His $700,000 Fasig-Tipton Calder sale topper was the highest priced of any two-year-old sold in 2010 at public auction.
