- 1988 foal and cost Ir 300,000gns as a yearling, older half brother of sire Fruits Of Love. Owned by Hamdan Al Maktoum and trained by RW Armstrong winning three races, all over 5f at 2yo. At that age won three from seven, unplaced on May 13th 6f debut, won 5f maiden May 29th, also successful in the Listed Roses stakes on Aug 22nd and the Group 3 Cornwallis on Oct 13th. Unplaced in four runs at 3yo.
- To stud in 1993 and an above average record which conforms to his own racing performance. Notable for getting precocious, sprint 2yos and a good winner to runner percentage at that age. The majority of his better winners have
fitted this model with Group race winning 2yos - Bouncing Bowdler (6f Group 2), Galeota (6f Group 2), Leggy Lou (6f Group 3), Masta Plasta (5f Group 2) & Show Me The Money (5f Group 3).
- Gets winners at 5f to 7f from early season and used to often get 50% winners to runners or better although the last two seasons have been his 'worst' in recent years at just over 30%.
- Only 23 yearlings sold in 2005 and possible signs that he is getting less opportunities. His average was around 18,000gns. Another solid season in 2006 with 8 winners from 15 runners (over 5-6f from May to August) although lacking a better quality representative. 21 yearlings sold for an average of 18,500 guineas.
