Leonidas, brother to La Troienne

Postby Bast » Thu Dec 09, 2010 7:27 pm

La Troienne had a full brother named Leonidas who was a stakes winner. However, according to the progeny function in the database, although he was a foal of 1925, he is listed as siring only one foal, Verveine, a French filly of 1943 for whom Rezeenne is listed as the dam, with no pedigree.

Does anyone know the story behind Leonidas' sparse career as a stallion, and why Rezeenne is listed without a pedigree?
