- Son of leading MD sire Blofeld, who has 10% BTWs to runners
Registered Maryland-bred and Maryland-sired colt is a son of leading regional sire Blofeld (10% BTWs to runners, 22% BTHs to runners, 1.48 AEI vs. 1.12 CI), he in turn an undefeated G2W 2YO son of leading sire Quality Road. His offspring have won three of the last four Maryland Million races for 2YOs.
Blofeld with AP Indy-line mares like this colt's dam Modernism has produced two BTWs (including '24 undefeated 2YO filly Silver Kiss) and a BTP winner.
This colt is the first foal out of Modernism, who was bred and raced by Godolphin and finished 3rd in her only start as a 2YO, making up 6 lengths from the stretch call to the finish to be beaten just 1 length. She, in turn, is out of a winning Medaglia d'Oro half to G2W Dancing House (a BT producer) and BTW Too Charming, as well as to the dams of G2W New and Improved and BTW I'm Mom's Favorite. Her 2nd dam is MG1W Tout Charmant, and third dam is G3W Charm a Gendarme.
