So we recently acquired a youngster by Anasheed and I am intrigued by his pedigree - AP Indy over Nureyev.
The following is from his stallion page -

-Out of Champion Older Mare in England, Ireland, & Italy FLAGBIRD.
- G3 Stakes Placed at 2 Years Old.
- 2nd dam, dam of RUNUP THE COLORS ($555,024), TOP ACCOUNT (4466,819), and *PROSPECTOR'S DELITE (4432,953) *Dam of Champion & Horse of The Year MINESHAFT & G1 millionaire TOMISUE'S DELIGHT.
- By Leading sire A.P. Indy. Sire of Eclipse Champion BERNARDINI (G1 $3,060,480) 2007 G1 Belmont S. and KY Oaks winner RAGS TO RICHES.
- ANASHEED is the sire of stakes winner GARTER BELT (to 3, 2009, $139,000, Green Oaks[L]) from his first crop.

Jessi, this is what I found in the Time Form.
Flagbird TF 113p (means wil still improve)
1993: 2yo; good topped filly; closely related to a minor stakes winner by Danzig. Dam won 7 races incl Delaware Oaks: very useful performer, won newcomers race at Deauville in august, head second to Bonash in GR 3 Prix d'Aumale in september and to Sierra Madre in Prix Marcel Boussac both at Longchamp; will probably be suited by further than 1m; act on heavy going. Has scope and should win minor races.
TF 114.
1994: well-made attractive filly: one of the leading French juveniles of 1993, ran very well to beat East of the Moon by a length in Prix de la Grotte at Longchamp at reappearance: just respectable efforts when fifth in Poule d'Essai des Pouliches there (4 3/4 lengths behind East of the Moon) then third of six in Prix Quincey at Deauville (2 1/2 lenghts behind Pollen Count) three months later; will stay beyond 1m; act on good to firm and soft ground; sent to Dubai. Trainer: A. Fabre France

The more I get to know people, the more I love animals.
I worked for one of the farms that stood Anasheed in NY and I loved him. He was beautiful, just small. He was built very well, small and compact. If you didn't know his pedigree was somewhat turf/distance horses you would think he was from a long line of sprint horses. Almost QH built to him. The foals I saw look a lot like him.
