There is no doubt this morning in the midst of the English Classic meeting at Epsom what the hottest nick in the world is right now...
The great Deep Impact, already one of the most influential sires in the history of thoroughbred racing, has found an incredibly potent cross that is responsible for the most dominant Oaks winner of the modern era.
SNOWFALL (Deep Impact x Best In The World ex Galileo) won the English Oaks by a monstrous 16-lengths on Saturday, but it is her famous bloodlines that have set tongues wagging.
Courtesy of pedigree database G1 Goldmine, statistics show that the Deep Impact x Galileo cross is arguably the hottest in the world today, and is responsible for these mind blowing results...
An insane 8.33% G1 winners to RUNNERS since 2011
A crazy 33.33% Stakes Winners to RUNNERS since 2011
That's right, 8.33% of horses from the Deep Impact x Galileo cross have won a G1 race to date....33.33% of runners from that cross have won a Stakes race!
This is serious stuff...especially considering the number of Galileo line mares in Australia right now given the presence of one of Deep Impact's best ever sons - FIERCE IMPACT.
He was already screamingly good value at $16,500, if you own a Galileo line mare there's only one stallion she needs to visit in 2021 - and that's the stats talking!
