- 1984 foal trained in France by T. Clout. Won 8 races at 6f to 10.5f between 2yo to 4yo. At 2yo won 3 from 4 including a Group 3 race over 9f and then a Group 1 winner in France at 2yo.
- To stud in 1988 and a solid career in France & Japan until imported to Britain in 1999. Has produced four Group 1 winners, all older horses in France/Italy including Lord Of Men. Best known in UK for Group 2 winner Pursuit Of Love.
- Just below average record with his British raced 2yos 2002-5 since being imported with around 20% winners to runners and a slightly below average strike rate. Usually gets winners at 6f upwards from May onwards but 2005 a good example of why flexibility is needed in assessing sire's records (including with perceived going preferences) with six wins at 5f (by three different runners). No winner at Listed level or better in those four seasons.
- 20 yearlings sold in 2005 for an average below 10,000gns. Poor returns in 2006 with one winner from 13 runners (at seller level). 10 yearliangs sold for a 9,000 guineas average.
