![]() Then we took the 25 leading sires of 2015 and ran them through the same tests. We also compiled the same data for Kentucky Derby and Preakness winners during the same period. That brought our test group to 25 stallions for whom we had corresponding biomechanical data-more than 30 physical measurements and various probabilities generated by our growth curve algorithms. The filly Rags to Riches did not make the cut. We added some other parameters to the study, eliminating winners since 2010 because they have not had enough crops to prove themselves, those that were exported before establishing themselves or died early. Indy while Bold Ruler’s son Secretariat sired Risen Star and his grandson Cannonade sired Caveat.) (Seattle Slew went on to sire two Belmont winners in Swale and A.P. We selected that year for two reasons: a) 40 years serves as a good generational arc, and b) the 1977 winner was Triple Crown winner Seattle Slew-a parlay that extended the influence of Bold Ruler through Seattle Slew’s grandsire Boldnesian. ![]() We decided to look for hints in the biomechanical make-up of the Belmont winners since 1976. ![]()
