Graydar a Grade 1-winning son of Unbridled's Song

GRAYDAR (USA) - 2009 grey horse

Unraced at two and a dual mile winner from three starts at three, Graydar won all three of his races at four and he had standouts such as Take Charge Indy and Flat Out behind him when winning the Grade 1 Donn Handicap over nine furlongs at Gulfstream Park.
 
He stands at Taylor Made Stallions Inc in Kentucky, covered 130 mares in his first season and 125 in his second, is inbred 4x4 to Mr Prospector (by Raise a Native), and some of his early sales yearlings have been fetching six-figured sums in the auction ring.

A half-brother to two graded-placed multiple winners, he is the best representative of one-time scorer Sweetest Smile (by Dehere), a daughter of juvenile stakes winner Cielo Ontono (by Conquistador Cielo). That mare is, in turn, a half-sister to a multiple listed scorer, but what catches the eye is the presence of a champion sire in the family.
 
Bubbles Darlene (by Fappiano) won twice as a three-year-old and this half-sister to Cielo Otono is the dam of the speedy English filly Elrafa Ah (by Storm Cat). She won the Listed Dragon Stakes at two, added the Listed Bentinck Stakes and was runner-up in the Group 3 Criterion Stakes, but her son Mujahid (by Danzig) won the Group 1 Dewhurst Stakes and finished third to Island Sands and Enrique in the Group 1 2000 Guineas.
 
He was European champion two-year-old in 1998, he began his stallion career at Beech House Stud in England but moved to Allevamento di Besnate in 2008. The multiple Italian champion sire is responsible for four-times Australian Group 1 star Danleigh, Dubai and Turkish Group 2 winner Balius, Italian Group 1 scorer Cleo Fan, and dual pattern scorer and notable broodmare Tashekla, among others.
 
The first two named on that list were millionaires and the latter is the dam of Group 1-placed Group 2 scorer Tasaday (by Nayef) and of last month's Group 3 Desmond Stakes winner Tribal Beat (by Street Cry).

GRAYDAR (USA) – gr.2009 – Unbridled's Song – Sweetest Smile, 5 wins inc Donn Handicap (Gr1), Kelso Handicap (Gr2), New Orleans Handicap (Gr2). Sire in USA. First foals in 2015.
