The Epsom Derby & Gainsville's Mares - Part II

Gainsville's connection with international classic winners continues.

RULER OF THE WORLD - EPSOM DERBY 2013
Yet again, this year's Epsom Derby winner, the bred in purple RULER OF THE WORLD comes from the same family of the Gainsville mare CELEBRATIONS. This is ofcourse the fantastic family i.e. UVIRA II, family of A.P.INDY, MISSY BABA, LEMON DROP KID, DUKE OF MARMALADE, KANTHARA, etc.

CELEBRATIONS was bought out of training couple of years ago and is a half sister to the Graded winner KANTHARA. Sparingly raced, she is now at Ruia Stud and has a filly foal 2013 by CHEVALIER and is in foal this year to their new Dansili horse SURFRIDER.
