Zenyatta bred to Big Brown?
 
I went on the website Pedigreequery.com and it says Zenyatta was bred to Big Brown and resulted in a colt in 2015. Is this true? I knew she had a filly by War Front who passed in an accident. Must be an error.

Interesting choice..Both her other foals are working steadily but slow 5/8 at Santa Anita every week. Cozmic One (Bernardini) and Ziconic (Tapit).

Not a chance. I'm pretty sure she wasn't bred that year.

The War Front foal died and she was bred back to War Front, not Big Brown.

Anybody can put a horse on that website and to the best of my knowledge it isn't checked for accuracy. I am guessing this will be removed shortly.

You and FF are both correct. After the tragedy with her foal, they held her out of the shed for a year.

The other 2 are working regularly but not running. I get the impression that Ziconic is more talented than Cozmic One.

Cozmic One has been a bust thus far.

Just a question are the stallions that produce best at a mile/ mile and a quarter range the same stallions that produce best in the 5 to 6 furlong range? Or are there better sires for different distances?

Would it ever be considered to breed a mare like Zenyatta to a stallion that excels in the 5 to 6 furlong range (if there are those types).

$.02:

-Stallions who are known for throwing distance, can also be effective passing on sprinter speed, and vice versa. I mean, it can vary, but you really don't know until you get them to the track...:cool:

-I'm sure it could be considered, but if I'm breeding to Zenyatta, I'd have 9-12 furlongs in mind; not just 6.

Sure, but you'd want to breed her to a stallion who often imparts speed like Tapit.

This is very true. You want that balance of speed and stamina. :ThmbUp:

Class, not only are you knowledgeable, but you are, also, too kind.... You are one of the most loyal souls ever. This is true especially of Zenyatta.

All I could think of?

Rachel's throwing Runners.

Z's throwing Radiators. (For all they've shown.) :faint:

is the dominant stallion the best horse to breed for racing purposes...if you put 5 stallions in a field with zenyata, what would happen? or any mare for that matter?
