To Male line @Dubawi, sire & sons continues the breeder’s ubiquitous statement; his type shall dominate for several generations.
The grandson of Dubawi Bayside Boy (IRE) was a G1 winner at 3, to note as sire, blood free of Danehill and Galileo.
Bayside Boy further stamps the Dubawi sting: one outstanding turn of foot for 12,500 euros, @Bayside Boy | Ballylinch Stud
TBL Subject: Son of Bayside Boy is the two year gelded Arapaho Gold (IRE) winner 2026 Rose Bowl Stakes Arapaho Gold Horse Pedigree > 4×4 Wolfhound (USA) sprinter sire by Nureyev.
Arapaho Gold was offered as a yearling at the 2025 Goffs Ireland Orby Sale, where he realised €42,000 for Newlands House Stud. Now owned by Doug Graham & Carole Dods and trained by Michael Dods, he has already repaid that investment with an unbeaten juvenile campaign capped by the Listed Rose Bowl Stakes.
Dubawi (links (i) & ii the golden potency factor underlines @Tom Fool (Menow – Gaga by Bull Dog), 7x Tom Fool @Arapaho Gold (Buckpasser, Tim Tam, Mrs Peterkin, & Dinner Partner been a Tom Fool daughter distaff Arazi (USA) 3rd dam sire of pedigree).
Tom Fool classic type: Sainfoin/Sierra – St Simon – Domino
Greentree Farm’s chief stakeswinners were Capot, Tom Fool, and Stage Door Johnny. Capot (by Menow) won the Preakness Stakes and the Belmont Stakes to add to his Champagne Stakes victory as a two year old, but Capot proved to be a sterile sire. As a result, John Hay Whitney purchased Tom Fool (Menow) as a yearling. Tom Fool out of a slightly unsound mare (Bull Dog) who came from a strong winning female line. Tom Fool was voted American champion at three. Of all his sons it was mainly left to Tompion and Buckpasser to carry on the line. Tom Fool’s granddam was Alpoise, by Equipose out of Laughing Queen who was a sister to the brilliant but unsound Pompey. (credit ex- Ken McLean Quest for a Winner)
Arapaho Gold has 2nd dam sire Gulch – a significant sire, and nowadays not too common (it seems) upon your contemporary profiles. Gulch sources that goldmine of genetics: 4x Plucky Leige through sons Sir Gallahad & Bull Dog, full-brothers by Teddy to his sire-line in Orme.
Tragically Gulch’s dam Jameela, left no daughters. Her 27 wins from 58 starts records exceptional status, tough, Maryland Horse of the Year. Jameela dam of Gulch won the 1988 Breeders’ Cup Sprint-G1 and was named Eclipse-award winning sprinter that year. Gulch went on to become one of the nation’s most respected sires, counting among his 74 stakes winners champion and Kentucky Derby-G1 winner Thunder Gulch.

@Mofida 6×5 ( dam of Zaizafon & distaff/daughter Dangora). The strains and elements of Mofida is of the potent “O” legendary sires (Orby, Orme, Ormonde) as classic ‘Y strain through ***Gold Bridge, sire of Golden Cloud, Vilmorin, Squander Bug etc. Sire of the Blue Hen Mare *Rough Shod II, strain of pure speed, highly significant on the racing breed.
🏇England’s champion two year old Orme, dam Angelica, a full sister to St Simon
Find, Mofida cuts ‘sharp’ to Arapaho Gold viz., Vilmorin 8x7dx7d. Then dam, *Special (Forli) via Nureyev + Sadlers Wells as influentials viz., ***Gold Bridge. Vilmorin – notes distaff broodmare sire BungleintheJungle (GB) to Arapaho Gold.
Finally and never least…broodmare Gay Missile (Sir Gaylord, 4th dam sire Spearmint/Carbine, to note Plucky Liege by Spearmint) is producer of Lassie Dear & Gay Mecene as seen to Anabaa & 2x Wolfhound strains to sire Bayside Boy (IRE) should further promise ahead, an exciting sire.
