One mare a family doesnt make. The whole concept of breeding with the class of the family in mind is "Family over individual".
Secretariat's dam was unplaced on the track. But that female family is as solid as it comes, and Somethingroyal turned out to be a bluehen. She's by no means the only underachiever to start a legacy in the shed because of those great genes behind her...
Hell, the GREAT La Troienne couldnt outrun a fat girl... but look at what she accomplished in the shed, all due to class of the female family. But, in La Troienne's defense, she was started in company well over her head. But regardles!!!
