This son of Round Table out of Good Morning seems to have been a prolific sire in WA. He keeps cropping up in pedigrees and I want to know more about him.
Does anyone have more background on him? Owners, farm where he stood, other details of his connections?

Hi
Prince O' Morn was among the leading sires in Washington State during the early '70's. He stood at Dewaine Moore's Rainier Stable in Enumclaw. He was a good regional sire of two-year-old winners, and had an excellent percentage of runners from foals with around 60% winners from starters (82% won or placed). Beautifully bred, by the great Round Table out of Good Morning by Sir Gallahad, he won 3 races in 29 starts. He was a half sibling to the stakes winners Battle Morn and Victory Morn, and a half brother to the stakes placed winners, Wings O' Morn and Hoist Away. A medium sized individual with good overall conformation, he difinitely made an impact on the local thoroughbred colony.

Thanks, Bill!
We have a mare by Hi Mac, one of his sons, at the farm where I keep my own horse.
It's like when you buy a model of car, and suddenly start noticing them everywhere...
Prince O'Morn is even in the pedigree of the farm owner's Trakehner/Arab cross, 5 generations back on the Trakehner side. So his impact went beyond the thoroughbred colony.
