Here is link to Thoroughbred Times Interactive Stallion Directory -- a very interesting read. http://www.thoroughbredtimes.com/sta...ion_no=1365869

Smart Strike defeated Langfuhr at age 2. Lawyer Ron and Interpatation are both Langfuhr foals that tasted defeat today. Second generation carries on as sire did.

And from you heard it here first department -- where did Smart Strike's only two graded wins occur? Monmouth Park... you can't make this stuff up. Horses for courses sometime pass that to their progeny.
English Channel - Curlin $2 Daily Double pays $55.60. Looks like Smart Strike's offspring really do like Monmouth Park, too.
