ORB (USA) - 2010 bay horse
Kentucky Derby hero by a leading sire son of the mighty A.P. Indy, Claiborne Farm's Orb is one of the most promising stallions who have their first yearlings on offer in 2016. He will also have plenty of representatives as he covered 122 mares in his first season and 117 in his second.

He is out of Lady Liberty (by Unbridled), a four-times scorer out of Grade 2 Black Eyed Susan Stakes winner Mesabi Maiden (by Cox's Ridge), and his third dam, Steel Maiden (by Damascus), who was placed in that same prestigious fillies' event, was a stakes-winning half-sister to Grade 1 star and successful sire Private Terms (by Private Account).
That horse's Grade 3-winning half-brother Blue Ensign (by Hoist The Flag) also sired graded winners, their half-brother Dover Ridge (by Riva Ridge) got stakes winners, and their unraced half-sister Laughing Look (by Damascus) did her part for the family by coming up with Grade 1 star and blacktype sire Coronado's Quest (by Forty Niner).

There are various other notable horses to be found under the branches of the fourth generation of the family, but none was in the league of the most famous member of the fifth generation: the outstanding filly Ruffian (by Reviewer). Champion at two and three, and inducted into the Hall of Fame the year after her tragic death, the five-times Grade 1 star was out of the stakes-placed Shenanigans (by Native Dancer).

Ruffian's Grade 2-winning half-brother Buckfinder (by Buckpasser) was a successful stallion and she was also a half-sister to Grade 2 winner Icecapade (by Nearctic), a leading sire whose progeny included Grade 1 Breeders' Cup Classic winner and classic sire Wild Again, notable stallion Clever Trick and the tragically ill-fated Canadian Horse of the Year Izvestia.

ORB (USA) – b.2010 – Malibu Moon – Lady Liberty, 5 wins inc Kentucky Derby (Gr1), Florida Derby (Gr1), Fountain of Youth Stakes (Gr2), 3rd Belmont Stakes (Gr1), Travers Stakes (Gr1). Sire in USA. First foals in 2015.
