If you check out this breeding, you'll see that Broad Brush is 3X3 to Turn-To.
Secretariat in the dam's dam line, and Danzig (Northern Dancer) in his dam's sire line. And, of course, Ack Ack was broad Brush's sire.
This could be a good one.
Bourbon Streettune is confirmed "in foal". Now, the wait. Foal due in late Feb. Then three years to Church Hill downs...
Seems to me, the only thing about horse racing happens on the track.
The rest of it takes a lot of time.

Best of luck with the foal. Yes, when Broad Brush raced, he was my favorite. I'll never forget his four year old season when he shipped to California and finished behind Snow Chief and Ferdinand...the "experts" said he was simply too slow for them. Then he went back for the Big Cap and proved them all wrong! The Domino line was so important to American racing that when it almost disappeared it became critical for a stallion to step-up. Ack Ack was good on the track but thank god, he produced Broad Brush! BB has had some good sons but thus far, none have done great in the shed...still, I hope for a champion from the old man and success from the kids!
