Vinemeister X Legitimada

Postby griff » Sat Mar 17, 2012 2:31 pm

Will appreciate input on this proposed nick.

Legitimada has no lines to Mr Prospector and may be in foal to Prospect Bay. However if she is not I am considering Vinemeistaer for her next cover.

Vinemeister has a 66/9/12 with $420k in winning incuding a win in a G-3 and a 2nd in a G-2

Legitimada has a 64/11/5/7 with $213k in winnings but no stakes races.

My attraction to this nick is a stallion fast enough to win a G-3 and sound enough to start and finish 66 races in 66+ years

and a

Mare sound enought to start and finish 64 races in 6+ years

They both averaged 10+ races a year and both retired sound

thanks in advance

well, Vinemeister appears to be a leading earner from Wmtown seemed to have some speed - sw at 6f and GSW at a mile. There are stamina influences too - Slew, His Majesty, Pleasant Colony. Key would be whether they matched up size and type-wise.

the South America bloodlines are something of a wild card.

just an impression or two.

Run the race - the one that's really worth winning.
