The Thoroughbred Industry has two distinct but sometimes inseparable facets; bloodlines and running lines. Although the breeding business is all about pedigree, the racing business isn’t always. Good blood doesn’t always produce a good runner. And a good runner – even a great one – doesn’t always come from a royal family.

Kentucky, the mare Maid of Flight, stakes-placed and a winner of only three of nineteen starts, produced her first foal, by Your Host, a top racehorse who didn’t have a sterling reputation as a stallion. Owned and bred by Mrs.Richard du Pont, the colt became a gelding at two before his first start on the racetrack...
