I don't have a theory, but I can tell you from observation that from his first crop, the Coronado Quest fillies outperformed the males, both in overall wins and stakes races.

In fact, after the 3rd one won first time out, it became one of my favorite debut handicapping ploys - and still produced prices ($28 on a Zito entry at Aqueduct).

It will be interesting to see what happens with his offspring now that he is going to Japan.
