Sands of Mali is fairly unique these days in being a true outcross ie he has zero duplicated ancestors in the first 5 generations of his ancestry. I hope and think this will help him become a outstanding sire of precocious fast 2 year olds and at the same time cock a snoop at all the droning on line- breeders and bloodstock agents claiming inbreeding to this or that fashionable sire and other nonsense

Inbreeding is not necessarily being trumpeted around these days...

She grabs the ground quite markedly . If you remember Celtic swing Who was 2nd in the 2000 and won the French Derby in 1995 - v similar. They said Celtic Swing had a conformation fault of offset knees

“Celtic Swing's conformation was flawed: his knees were off-set, which meant they were prone to concussion when he galloped at full pelt." Expectations rose during the months he was given to recover.”
