Ion Horse Pedigree

At 3: 2nd Derby S., St. Leger S.

Ion is quite interesting as a brood mare sire. His dam: MARGARET (br f 1831 EDMUND) was out of; MEDORA (ch f 1811 SELIM)[winner of the Oaks Stakes 2414m-12f (GB)]; as well Margaret's half sister: GULNARE (b f 1824 SMOLENSKO)[who was also a winner of the Oaks Stakes 12f (GB)]. Ion's half sister: JUNCTION (b f 1853){who was sired by either, STING, or NUNNYKIRK, or NUNCIO} was dam of: EVA (b f 1861 ALLEZ-Y-GAIMENT)[winner of the Prix de la Foret 1400m (Fr)]. GULNARE half sister to Ion's dam showed quality as a brood mare as well. She was dam of: THE CORSAIR (blk c 1836 SIR HERCULES)[winner of the Two Thousand Guineas Stakes..], and 2nd dam of: DIE JUGEND (b f 1842 AMESBURY)[who was a winner of the Henckel-Rennen 1600m, Gelsenkirchen-Horst, Ger. (now G2)] Ion's brood mare sire: EDMUND (b c 1824 ORVILLE) had an Oaks Stakes winner for his 2nd dam in SORCERY (b f 1808 SORCERER) and she was dam of Derby Stakes and Two Thousnad Guineas Stakes winner, CADLAND (br c 1825 ANDREW). Ion was thought well enough of that the fine race mare: ELLEN MIDDLETON (br f 1846) [a winner of Yorkshire Oaks 2414m=12f..] was sent to him, with success, producing WILD DAYRELL (br c 1846)[a winner of the Derby Stakes 2414m=12f..]
