Lets not forget Sunday Silence the sire of Deep Impact got beaten in the last leg of the American Triple Crown or it would have made a clean sweep.

And Roaring Lion is by Kittens Joy

.....most of Sunday Silence progeny battle to go beyond a mile.....yet Deep Impact's dam has infused the staying capability.....and quite ironic she was once owned by a member of the Coolmore connections.....

I was under the impression that they used the services of Deep Impact

....maybe but not for any major discount as Deep Impact's dam Wind In Her Hair was sold to Northern Farm Japan.....they bred Deep Impact and was owned raced by Japanese business tycoon Makoto Kenako who has owned several other Japanese champions.....he retained the stud career of Deep Impact in one of his self named corporations....the Coolmore clan owned and raced Saxon Warriors dam.....yet did not breed with her under the Coolmore banner....

From Wikipedia

Saxon Warrior is a bay colt with a narrow white blaze bred in Japan by Orpendale, Chelston & Wynatt, a breeding company associated with the Coolmore Stud. Like most Coolmore horses he was sent into training with Aidan O'Brien at Ballydoyle. For racing purposes Saxon Warrior is registered as being owned by Derrick Smith, Mrs John Magnier and Michael Tabor although the precise details of his ownership differ from race to race.

.....sorry the breeders names are not very Japanese.....in fact it is very difficult to get Japanese bred horses out of Japan.....one has to be very connected or have something worth while to trade with them....

....see that the dam Maybe left Japan after 2 successful services to Deep Impact.....and now has progeny by American Pharaoh and War Front..... :huh:

After Saxon Warrior won the Guineas, couple days later a horse won in France by Deep Impact called Study of Man with Irish connections. September is also by Deep Impact owned by Coolmore and they have already mated quite a few of their broodmare band with Deep Impact. The latest being Roly Poly.

....I backed Study Of Man....and the owner/ breeder Flaxman Holdings Ireland is Niachos's family owned.....I think that they too have some sort of set up in Japan.....

Eish 0.72/1 for Saxon Warrior looks a wee steep particularly with Roaring Lion in the field. Let me sleep on it.

I backed this the other week. The same cross in the UK produced some hard knockers. From the family of Lee's Star and Gambado.
