A huge day for the versatile Liam’s Map (@LanesEndFarms).

[Nicole Russo @DRFRusso]

Newly-minted classic sire Liam's Map (Unbridled's Song) is a half to Not This Time (Giant's Causeway), who has emerged as one of the nation's leading sires. Both o/o G3W Miss Macy Sue (Trippi). In addition to G1W Liam's Map, G3W Not This Time, also produced SWs Matera, Taylor S.

[Nicole Russo @DRFRusso]

Liam's Map won 6-8, never worse than second; major wins came in 2015 Woodward, BC Dirt Mile. He's been versatile; sire of G1Ws on dirt (Basin, Burnham Square, Juju's Map, Napoleon Solo, Wicked Whisper) and turf (Colonel Liam, Deterministic). Burnham Square a GSW on turf as well.

[Nicole Russo @DRFRusso]

The Unbridled line strikes again in the American classics. #Preakness winner Napoleon Solo is by Liam's Map (@LanesEndFarms), a son of Unbridled's Song.
