SWISS SPIRIT (GB) - 2009 bay horse
One of a growing number of stallion sons for the excellent Invincible Spirit (by Green Desert), this Whitsbury Manor Stud resident is by the sire of Lawman, Mayson, Vale Of York, Zebedee and I Am Invincible. There are 73 in his first crop.
Stakes-placed at two and a high-class sprinter at three and four years of age, Swiss Spirit was unlucky not to have won the Group 2 Temple Stakes. He was badly impeded at the start, flew home and was only beaten by a neck by Kingsgate Native. He is a half-brother to the Group 3 Prix de Meautry and Group 3 Prix du Petit Couvert heroine Swiss Diva (by Pivotal), to the triple stakes-winning sprinter Swiss Dream (by Oasis Dream) and also to Swiss Franc (by Mr Greeley), who was runner-up in the Group 2 Coventry Stakes.
Their dam, Swiss Lake (by Indian Ridge), won the Listed St Hugh's Stakes and Listed Lansdown Stakes, she was runner-up in the Group 2 Flying Childers Stakes, and she is the better of two stakes horses out of listed-placed sprinter Blue Iris (by Petong).
The next dam, juvenile winner Bo' Babbity (by Strong Gale), was a half-sister to Anita's Prince (by Stradavinsky), a Group 1-placed pattern winning sprinter whose progeny included the multiple stakes-winning sprinter and 16-times scorer Carranita. You will also find the Group 1-placed Group 3 Cornwallis Stakes winner Kier Park (by Foxhound), Group 1 Prix de l'Abbaye de Longchamp hero Maarek (by Pivotal), listed scorers Ruby Rocket (by Indian Rocket), Inzar's Best (by Inzar) and Alexander Alliance (by Danetime), and also this year's Listed Windsor Castle Stakes scorer Ardad (by Kodiac) under branches of the fourth generation of the family. With his combination of racing and pedigree profile, it is easy to see why Swiss Spirit has been popular, and he looks likely to become a source of speedy juveniles and high-class sprinters, and depending on the mare, some who may stay a mile.
