Do you want to see a 21st century sire (it happens to be a gray) who descends from very good old names from yesteryears. Search no more
and take a look at the maternal side of this sire.

How Do I Win http://www.pedigreequery.com/how+do+i+win (Silver Series –RARE!)


Nice to see a 21st century surviving gray lineage of Silver Series. Now through a 2012 Triple Crown nominee named HOW DO I WIN.
See this interesting historical lineage:

HOW DO I WIN (gray colt 2009) http://www.pedigreequery.com/how+do+i+win

01. From SILVER CROWN (gray mare 2001)
02. From SILVER HONEY (gray mare 1980)
03. By SILVER SERIES (Gray h 1974)
04. From CAT HAT (gray m 1964)
05. From MICHIQUITA (gray m 1954)
06. From LA CHICUELA (gray m 1945)
07. From LA CHICA (gray m 1930) (dam of Miyako, dam of Geisha, dam of Native Dancer)
08. From LA GRISETTE (gray m 1915)

HOLY CANDY (gray colt 2009)
http://www.pedigreequery.com/holy+candy

Holy Candy is the only gray colt among the 2012 Triple Crown
nominees who owes his gray color to the great Native Dancer.
This is a very rare occurrence because albeit Native Dancer is
one of the world's most influential sires of all times, the prolific
gray color we see today in so many Thoroughbreds practically owes nothing to "Sagamore's Gray Ghost". Not so in Japan where the gray Kurofune is serving as a sire.

Another excellent race by Creative Cause. The San Felipe should put him at the head of the list of potential Derby Winners, and Hansen is very close to the top, too.

Hope this promising colt by Cozzene makes it to the Derby. He is developing into a big scope sophomore. His pedigree cries "Derby distnce"! His name is COZZETTI http://www.pedigreequery.com/cozzetti
