“He's a pretty nifty colt,” said trainer George Weaver. “He was on a rushed schedule for this. There's no reason not to go over there. It's a lot of fun, and he's got as good a chance as anybody.”

The first and to date only foal out of group-stakes winner Etoile, herself a full-sister to GSW/MG1SP Ancient Rome, No Nay Mets traces back to G1 Investec Epsom Derby winner Pour Moi (Ire) (Montjeu {Ire}) and GSW/G1SP Dawn Patrol (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}). This is also the extended family of GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf heroine Pizza Bianca (Fastnet Rock {Aus}). Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by TVG.
