federico tesio said breed the best to the best, and then hope for the best. there's no telling what rachel will produce, or any horse will produce for that matter. it's a crap shoot. i remember that genuine risk was bred to secretariat, everyone was excited about two derby winners producing a foal. it didn't end well, with the foal stillborn. and of course genuine risk ended up star-crossed as a broodmare, producing only two foals.

the thing is, i think it's a shame that we have so few horses sticking around racing that some are reduced to cheering on the breeding process.
