Stronger than what? His dam is a classic-winning multiple G1 winner, two of whose daughters have already foaled group winners (1 G1, 2 G2). His damsire is one of the all-time great stallions in Brazil, especially as a damsire, and his second dam won the Brazilian Oaks. And HER sire was another top Brazilian sire and damsire. The third dam was British and had already had a group SW in England before being exported to Brazil. This is a branch the outstanding Horama family, responsible for scads of group winners all over the world. These are seriously good bloodlines.
Plus he has no Raise a Native or Bold Ruler, only one remote Northern Dancer. Can you say 'outcross?' Especially for the mares who have A. P. Indy piled onto Storm Cat onto Mr. Prospector.
