Though EQ was speed, his own damsire was Hero's Honor, a stamina influence from the outstanding stamina (and turf) based program of Paul Mellon. Mellon was a thoughful and methodical breeder and whose success was all but unrivaled.
If EQ can get a Derby winner from a daughter of Smile, I have to think he can get one from a daughter of Strawberry Road.
