I updated Courtly Dee's page (http://www.americanclassicpedigrees.com/courtly-dee.html) as Saturday's Mine That Bird Derby winner, Where's the Moon, is from her family (see blog entry at http://www.americanclassicpedigrees.com/hoofprints). I also added Unbreakable, a male-line ancestor of Mr. Prospector, to the Library (http://www.americanclassicpedigrees.com/unbreakable.html).
