It's not impossible for a horse with ND and Mr. P a few generations back to be speed oriented, but yah, it is strange.
Some other examples would be Moscow Ballet. He was considered strictly a sprinter in his brief career, and sired mostly speedier/sprint types. He was by Nijinsky II out of a half to Mill Reef.
Or Apalachee. By Round Table from the great Moccasin. This horse sired pure speed.
