She is not exactly by Storm Cat or Seattle Slew, she is by a son of Kingmambo, who is not exactly a sire-of-sires at this point...as a matter of fact, aside from Lemon Drop Kid - who has been a failure at sire - he has NO relavent stallions in North America.....I'm not saying her pedigree is porr by any means, but that is a LOT of cash to dish over for a weanling filly - even if she were by Sunday Silence, Storm Cat, Seattle Slew or God!!!
