Danzig has been a huge success as everyone knows and his daddy was the king of inbreeding but there have been only 7 times that a mating that was inbred to Danzig produced a Graded Stakes winner and only one of those was 2 x 3. All of the GS winners were G3 only. Green Desert was a conduit 3 times, twice on the bottom and once on the top. Danzig has appeared in the pedigree 771 times on the top and 162 times on the bottom which resulted in a Graded Stakes winner.

Danzig has probably been fairly successful with one of his brothers, however. I'll do a Goldmine check a little later, Cathy, as I have a few things to do before going to work.

Hope this helps.
