Somerfrost,
I also hope to see a Broad Brush get a KD.
The best I could do was put my mare, Bourbon Streettune with one of his sons, Best of Luck (High Cliff Farm, nybreds).
If you check out this breeding, you'll see that Broad Brush is 3X3 to Turn-To.
Secretariat in the dam's dam line, and Danzig (Northern Dancer) in his dam's sire line. And, of course, Ack Ack was broad Brush's sire.
This could be a good one.
Bourbon Streettune is confirmed "in foal". Now, the wait. Foal due in late Feb. Then three years to Church Hill downs...
Seems to me, the only thing fast about horse racing happens on the track.
The rest of it takes a lot of time.
