Do you have anything of Danzig? I have had the priviledge to meet him twice at Claiborne, the latter being about 2 weeks before he died. I got to pat him that time, haha.

Hi. I posted a video about Danzig a while back called: "Danzig...What Might Have Been." Type it in and hit enter on my main page of videos. I think you'll really enjoy it.

Thanks for watching.

Ha. I have quite a few bottles to cash in, of the non-alcholic variety that is. Maybe that Saratoga trip is in the cards for me after all.

I'll keep the videos coming as long as I can.

Thanks for the laugh and have a great day!

[watchingponies]

A lot of horses that rock the tracks these days have The Mister in their blood.

[Tivaforever487]

[EMCEMITCH]

what a peolific sire---unprecedented

[hannahalexismommy]

my horse is the grandson of mr prospector!!!!! his name is sam....welll his registered name is Popo but he is related to mr prospector! thats soo awesome! thanks for this video

[techblitz1]

one has to ask who was the most important stallion of last century

was it northern dancer,mr prospector or.......one of thier grandfathers phalaris (b1913) who not only started both of the above sirelines but also started silver charms(buckpasser) sireline

to put in into perspective secretariat,nijinsky,cigar,sea the stars,dubai millienium,bold ruler,seattle slew,danehill,fappiano,riverma­n,sea bird,nearco,makybe diva......and many more champions of the turf descend directly from phalaris.

[TheShowercap]

He's the grandsire of my horse too. Very cool.

[SbsMaui]

Mr Prospector is the great grandfather on one side and the grandfather on the other side of my OTTB 4yr mare, DreamTrip.

[bronco3250]

Nicanor, the full brother of Barbaro, is being compared to Mr Propector...as far as looks. He really does look like him too. Obviously in his line. He was born in the wrong year, or else he probably would have had a better winning percentage. Forego and Secretariat in 1970, oh yeah and Shams.

What a sire.

[epona910]

my horses great grandsire on his mommies side is mr prospecter and Danzig is his grand sire on the daddies side.
