St John Da Gray over the years I have always looked closely at his breeding of his horses after Announce and Sarge. The dam of Announce and Sarge is You're My Lady making her the granddaughter of the great broodmare Natalma. Natalma is the dam of the legendary sire Northern Dancer.

Christopher Robin, sire, Damage Is Done his 4th dam is Ofa. Ofa was the dam of Politician the last horse to win the Met and the July in the same year. Christopher Robin, dam, Onehundredacrewood, her 4th dam is Saturna. Saturna was the dam of Harry Hotspur and Rotterdam.

....initially admired the man for his astute observations of breeding and actually standing Announce as a stallion..... however I for one would never have thought that Damage Is Done from the stout Coconut Ice line was in the same mould....as although Damage Is Done was better performed than Announce....for me just does not have the genetic make up to qualify as stud material.....which brings me to The actual race which IMVHO was the weakest Victory Moon field I have ever seen.....and IMO anything could have won...on the other hand the owner trainer breeder other ventures with highly under rated Bezrin may get a better crack at the Victory Moon in years to come......:unsure:
