Second generation has Danzig and Nureyev which gets you as far as you want to go.

Far, sure, but fast? How many Danzig plodders have we seen out there, Hard Spun notwithstanding, the last few years? Defer comes immediately to mind.

Despite the odd classic horse, didn't both sires mainly get milers?

In fact, the history of the BC Mile is littered with their offspring (eg. Lure, Zilzal, Miesque, Ad Valorem, Antonius Pius, Brahms, Century City, Della Francesca, Dove Hunt, Dumaani, Furiously, Atticus, Lech, Librettist, Polish Precedent, Good Journey, Spinning World, Wolfhound).
