TAPIT , leading sire in many ranks,for a few years now, is a son of Pulpit,
LUCKY PULPIT, is also a son of Pulpit

so all those winners by tapit are all grandsons of Pulpit, as is
California Chrome.

I would think with that kind of lineage, and his remarkable perfomance on the track,
should make him an outstanding high priced stud...kinda like me

if California Chrome is any kind of a winner in the shed,
he might turn out to be the most financially successful animal in history..
depending on his coverage , he might earn more than AP Indy ever did in the shed
will call him California Platinum then...

this is one special animal now..
if he is a stud,,,again like me, , he might rise to a level never to be duplicated for quite some time, unless the inflation rate makes the dollar extremely worthless for 5 years or so in a row..like the 1980's when the prime rate hovered over 20%, when they switched from using the interest rate to control the money supply, to letting the money supply control the interest rate. Volcker shifted Fed policy to aggressively target the money supply rather than interest rates
