Crazy as this sounds, Sumitas... I look for Princequillo in the dam's line as a way of filtering my derby contenders. I'm not sure how the the large heart factor is passed down, but it seems to me, that most horses with Princequillo in the first 5 or 6 gens of their dam's line can go longer. Am I wrong?
