Oh brother!
Ok - let's say that Autobahn Girl was by Slew City Slew out of her real dam Saorise (a Cure the Blues mare)
And Golden Missile is by his real sire A. P. Indy out of his real dam Santa Catalina (a Cure the Blues mare)
They would share 2 out of the 4 grandparents and WOULD NOT be half siblings.
In horse racing, you have to come from the same dam to be any kind of a sibling to a horse.
While if they were humans you'd be right, You are confusing having the same cross with being a 75% sibling in horse racing terms.
No one said that Z Humor was a 3/4 sibling to Any Given Saturday because he shared the same cross (sire and dam sire) - they both came from different mares!
