“When he was good, he was very good.”
“His win in the Hutcheson was superb and his second in the Santa Anita Derby was top drawer."
“He is a very masculine, correct, and powerful horse that stands over a lot of ground” said Barry Irwin of Team Valor.
King of the Roxy was one of the best elongated sprinters of his generation and he was able to carry his speed over 9 furlongs in Grade 1 company.
He stands 16.2 hands, has a ton of scope, correct front limbs and a hip wide enough to act as your picnic table for the Fourth of July.
This is the last surviving and most successful branch of the sire line established about 90 years ago by Man O’ War through his descendants Intentionally and In Reality. These are fast, tough
son-of-a-guns.

"In an era when Mr. Prospector, Northern Dancer, and Seattle Slew/A.P. Indy are the dominant forces in U.S. racing, it comes as a pleasant surprise that the leading 2-year-old colts on either coast are male-line descendents of Man o’ War through In Reality."
