above is the pedigree profile of Bodemeister. he comes out of the Native Dancer line and on thatside he has some real nice sires in there. but the key is his direct sire Empire Maker, a Belmont winner some 6 years ago.
Empire Maker is transferring his genes as sire and commands a nice fee in the breeding shed.
but if you go into the lines of transmission into his mother as well you will see some dymamite horse that can run all day long.
his mothers line is Nothern Dancer the canadian great, from Neartic. but alo in there are 2 bold ruler lines...Seattle Slew and Secretariat..ony the 2 greatest race horses ever.
then Roberto a great sire.there is Le Fableux a great distance influence. that is what the P in brackets by his name means.
any horse in that line with P or S or both in brackets means distance pedigree and sire influence of a dominant charcter. those hoses are labled the dominant sires in the breed.
B, C and I in brackets are also dominant characteristics and sires but for speed and intermediate distances.
Bodemeister has one of the best peridgrees I have ever seen. ask anybody who knows. he appares to have an even better pedigree for the mile and a half than I'll Have Another.
but that horse has the best his line can offer and its almost the same line on top as Bodemeister
