Arch had high quality speed and I'll Have Another's dam won her only start wire-to-wire.

As for juvenile success, 8 of the 12 horses in the first two generations won at least one race at 2. 5 of those 8 were stakes performers. 4 of those 5 were stakes winners. 3 of those 4 were graded stakes winners. 2 of those 3 were Grade or Group 1 winners. 1 of those 2 was a Eclipse champion 2yo.
