If the previous success of AP Indy with Personal Ensign's clan, I expect the AP Indy-My Flag colt to be SLOW.

Possibility (AP Indy x Personal Ensign) 6-1-0-2, $42,000
Leading the Parade (AP Indy x My Flag) 10-2-0-3, $72,000
A Great Team (AP Indy x Pennant Champion) 6-3-1-1, $99,000

Remember, DON'T be like these breeders; who try to breed a stallion without first trying to breed a racehorse. Also, avoid going to a stallion out of personal friendship and/or business relationships with the stallion's owner (leastwise with a mare like My Flag!).

Filly by Empire Maker-Secret Status by Alydar


This is a especially good example of a poor breeding decision given that Alydar if such a splendid nick with Storm Cat and AP Indy has had some success with Storm Cat as well (see the G2W Jump Start and the GIW Sky Mesa).

Tom Rolfe would've been another good strain for Secret Status.
