Purchased at THE sale for 2-year-old winners, the Goffs Premier Yearling Sale, he is by Coolmore's REQUINTO, described as "Dansili's fastest 2 year old", you can read his full stallion details here: http://coolmore.com/stallions/requinto/
Generally speaking, at Middleham Park, we buy the very best pedigree that we can afford. It stands to reason that the stronger the genes the faster a horse can run, just so long as the horse in question can withstand training. There's a saying in racing that "you can't train paper," alluding to the fact that an unsound individual with a strong pedigree on paper, won't withstand training. So, it's always a balance of pedigree versus confirmation unless you have the sort of money that Coolmore and Godolphin possess, in which case you can afford both.
With this strong and sturdy son of Requinto we think we have just about got the balance right: He has a super page, being by a very fast Coolmore Stallion out of a winner producing mare who hails from a family packed with Group performers.
He is a 4-time winner and is a fun horse for his syndicate!
