Quote from: uconnjack8 on May 23, 2024, 01:24:36 PMFlightline is a son of Tapit. Tapit is a son of Pulpit who is a son of AP Indy. AP Indy sire was Seattle Slew and and Dam Sire was Secretariat. Tapit has produced a number of successful offspring.
Pretty good genetics to have Seattle Slew as your dad and Secretariat as the grandfather on your mother's side.
AP Indy was quite the horse. Santa Anita Derby, Peter Pan, Belmont Stakes, Breeders Cup Classic winner. 1992 Horse of the Year. Started life as a ridgeling(undescended testicle). Scratched morning of Kentuckey Derby due to sore foot. Neil Drysdale did a tremendous job getting him ready for Peter Pan/Belmont combo. Had a terrible Jockey Club Gold Cup, came back to win the Breeders.
