Key Phrase in turn has dropped NY stakes sprinter, Key Deputy, a sporadic campaigner for the Live Oak Plantation (12 career starts); Key Maker, a talented, but fragile CA colt that got a triple digit Beyer breaking his maiden off a yearlong layoff before descending into low claiming races (15 starts); highly touted, but never proven sprinter and now popular sire Yankee Gentleman (10 career starts); and Zing (8 starts) who as a broodmare has produced, Half Ours (7 starts), a stakes-winning Unbridled's Song colt (and new sire) that spent more time at the ranch than he did at the track.
Sown herself was a 1/2 to top CA sire Pirate's Bounty, who made 15 career starts.Triba
The irony of it all is that the 2nd dam, Bad Seed, made 44 career starts.
