- 1983 foal. Owned by RE Sangster and trained in Ireland by Vincent O'Brien winning three races from 6f to 8f, all at 2yo. As a juvenile won a 6.3f maiden on July 13th debut and minor event before an 8f Group 3 on Sept 29th and finally unplaced in the Dewhurst. One run at 3yo when third in a 6f Listed race as odds-on favourite.
- To stud in 1987 in US and stood at a fee of $45,000 in 2002. A good record with a range of Group/Grade 1 winners including Bosra Sham (1,000 Guineas), Hawk Wing (7-10f at 2yo to 4yo), Hector Protector (French 2,000), Hula Angel (Irish 1,000), Ciro (8f 2yo in France) & Gay Gallanta (6f 2yo) in Europe and Hansel (up to 12f on dirt), Mahogany Hall & Timber Country (Breeders' Cup Juvenile) in the US.
- A mixed record with smallish groups of British raced 2yos but usually with above average figures for winners to runners and especially for strike rate (because his runners tend to be with trainers who target a small number of 2yo runs). Gets winners at 6f to 8f and normally from late July onwards (also linked to the types of trainers & owners who have his representatives).
- No winner at Listed level or above in 2002-5 and most wins have been in later season maidens.
- Three yearlings sold at British & Irish sales in 2005 for an average around 25,000gns. No sale in 2006 in Europe.
