PWJ Posted January 26, 2023 Author Share Posted January 26, 2023 Here's a huge clue - The stallion in question was by a stallion who was a minor winner and only got a chance at stud because his full brother was a Champion racehorse. The lesser performed stallion turned out an infinitely better sire than his Champion sibling. Now here is another weird coincidence: The sire of the stallion I nearly bought had the exact same name as another stallion owned by a friend of mine. At one stage these two - the stallion I nearly bought and the stallion with the same name as his sire - stood just 35kms by road from each other Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
