@rdrisms Not the first case of this happening. There’s another horse named Memumsmedad, by the stallion Redwood out of the mare Redwood.

[Cotras @Cotras1]

@FrankelWatch13 How many have there been? I only know of MacSweeny being the other one.

[Cotras @Cotras1]

@InLuv_w_Horses Into Mischief is 2 away from the 200 club.

[Cotras @Cotras1]

@LongBallToNoOne Considering how similarly bred he is to Justify his versatility at stud isn’t surprising.

[Cotras @Cotras1]

@pedigreeupdate @GraffardRacing @AgaKhanStuds @NemoneRouth @JuddmonteFarms @FrankelWatch13 19 left!

[Cotras @Cotras1]

@tanmay_lor73580 @kohanesexual Her daughters might prove useful, I imagine

[Cotras @Cotras1]

@pedigreeupdate @cwallerracing @coolmorestud Good to know he finally passed the 200 mark

[Cotras @Cotras1]

@LongBallToNoOne Not a surprise there. He covered a lot of stouter mares and he himself could stay the distance.

[Cotras @Cotras1]

@Kontenasan_bf @LongBallToNoOne He’s also from the same female family as Halo, Northern Dancer, Danehill, Machiavellian, etc. I like the pedigree

[Cotras @Cotras1]

@FrankelWatch13 Personally, I feel like Danon Bourbon has an excellent shot.

[Cotras @Cotras1]

@pedigreeupdate @GraffardRacing @DavidLayani @InfoArqana @Chinahorseclub @EcurieMonceaux @ArthurHoyeau @AgaKhanStuds Oh shit. The cousin to my old horse Man Among Men!

[Cotras @Cotras1]

@FrankelWatch13 I was afraid due to the close inbreeding to close inbreeding to Galileo, and her further inbreeding to Danzig and Seeking the Gold, not to mention her dam was already inbred to Sadler’s Wells.

Fixed due to a typo the first time.

[Cotras @Cotras1]

@FrankelWatch13 Not gonna lie, I was concerned about the cross, but clearly I was wrong

[Cotras @Cotras1]

@FrankelWatch13 Clearly he works with both American-bred and European-bred mares.

[Cotras @Cotras1]

@DarleyAmerica @pedigreeupdate Sire of my former Filly Frosted Oats.

Damn

[Cotras @Cotras1]

@FrankelWatch13 I just love the pedigree

[Cotras @Cotras1]

@LongBallToNoOne I remember people thinking he was cooked after his Arc run.

Apparently that was wrong…

[Cotras @Cotras1]

@LongBallToNoOne I meant Petrichor going to Contrail upon Retirement, but, as you know, I am a proponent of the Contrail-American Pharoah cross, so Nicest going to him also makes sense.

[Cotras @Cotras1]

@LongBallToNoOne So I just went over her pedigree, and apparently… yeah, definitely Contrail.

[Cotras @Cotras1]

@LongBallToNoOne I’m gonna assume she’ll probably go to Contrail upon retirement to keep up the Triple Crowns…
