Belated, I know....

Yeah, it's been a few weeks since Lawyer Ron won the Whitney, but I might as well comment...YIPPPEEE! This colt has gone under the radar for a while and really deserved a grade I win. Also, I love Langfuhr as a sire and think he gets quality horses that are often underrated. Good going!

Notnowcato delivers a smasher in Coral-Eclipse

By all that has hooves! Ryan Moore outwitted Frankie Dettori to triumph over the Italian wonder and his favorite, the Epsom Derby winner Authorized. NNC has an interesting pedigree: on top, he traces to Ahonoora, but not through the usual branch of Indian Ridge. Instead, Ahonoora's son Inchinor appears on his top line: he is also the sire of Queen Elizabeth II Stakes winner Summoner. Inchinor's broodmare sire, Lomond, was a Northern Dancer half-brother to Seattle Slew.

NNC's female line traces to a distinguished English family whose representatives include top French winner Vela, group winner Home Please, excellent steeplechaser Beef or Salmon, good stayer Phantom Breeze, etc. The line further traces to other mares, all of whom are distinguished.
