He's got a double-dose of that Monarchy family thru State; the best members of this family recently have been Johannesburg, Tale of the Cat, Minardi, and Pulpit. Milers for the most part, several that were better at 2 than 3 and reverted to sprinting thereafter. Pulpit was the closest thing to a classic horse from the line and he was by A.P. Indy, not Jo'burg, a top 2yo who didn't train on.
