Is there any 21st. century Thoroughbred descending from the first Triple Crown winner SIR BARTON?

Whew, good luck!

After several fruitless attempts to find a 21st century descendant from Sir Barton somehow I managed to trace one case.

Hope there are more instances out there to be found, but at least here is one case. His name is:

TOKYO CHILLER (grey c 2009)
http://www.pedigreequery.com/tokyo+chiller2

He is by ARTIE SCHILLER out of TOKYO STORM (see below).

01. (dam) TOKYO STORM (grey M 2002)
02. (from) TOKYO FLIGHT (roan M 1986)
03. (from) NORTHERN FLIGHT (grey M 1977)
04. (from) FLIGHT MIST (bay M 1965)
05. (from) MIDST (bay M 1947)
06. (from) BIG AMERICA (bay M 1929)
07. (from) DONNA BARTON (chestnut M 1923)
08. (by) SIR BARTON (chestnut H 1916)

Nice to see Sir Barton's bloodlines being preserved,
especially, since his bloodline and himself ended up
sort of ignored.

I think Sir Barton ended up as a US Remount stallion somewhere out west.

Yes, he did end up as army remount stallion. Would think any descendants would be rare indeed.

Came across the very pleasant surprise that sire ALASKAN FROST,
http://www.pedigreequery.com/alaskan+frost , son of COPELAN,
son of the outstanding millionaire mare, SUSAN’S GIRL
http://www.pedigreequery.com/susans+girl
carries a dose of SIR BARTON as her fourth broodmare sire.

ALASKAN FROST is within the pedigree of, say, DODGING RAINDROPS (gray m 2005) http://www.pedigreequery.com/dodging+raindrops
and many other 21st century Thoroughbreds.

So that means that the influence of SIR BARTON is “alive and kicking” among us!

That's great!
