Let's just forget the Derby for a second. Mr Covello, if you can get this horse to win a couple more graded stakes, or another Grade 1, you will own one of the top stallion PROSPECTS on the racetrack.
That female family is a masterpiece. Tracing back to Courtly Dee, who produced Arkansas Derby winning filly Althea, and also Aquilegia, Amizette and Twining.
The 3rd dam Aishah won the Rare Perfume and produced stakes winners Atelier and Arabis.
Granddam Aldiza was a Grade 1 winner and produced stakes winner Altesse.
And of course your new acquisition is a 1/2 brother to Michael Matz' stakes placed filly And Why Not.
I would suggest you look into purchasing some broodmares this November at Keeneland. This is the type of bloodline you will want to consider retaining some shares in when his racing career is over.
