Personality
Danny is very intelligent, and with his sire in his blood that is not a good thing. When he's quiet you should be terrified, as that is the moment you know he is up to something. He's very calculating, powerful, dominant, and ruthless. As he gets older he's getting more and more like his sire. If things aren't done his way he throws a tantrum, if he has to do something he doesn't want too he throws a tantrum, if someone dares to claim they are "badder" and better then he is, then he will throw a tantrum and attack that horse or animal viciously. Fortunately, unlike Diesal, and like Titan, Danny can be handled. You just need to know how to stroke his ego, and Danny will do what is asked of him. When he races he will stalk the back of the pack like the predator he is, and when everyone least expects it he'll charge down the outside and snatch the win.
History and Pedigree Information
Danny was the result of a breeding that Intrepid (IGS) had given out to long time friend Maria to use to the current top broodmare, Stormwing. The result was this liver chestnut colt. This uniquely colored son of War Admiral made quite a splash on the racing scene and then when his stable mysteriously disappeared, so did Danny. Nick Landing was tracking down any War Admiral foals and stumbled upon this guy at a race track. Nick inquired about the stallion, recently acquired by an unknown purchaser, and Nick got him to sell the stallion back to him. This liver chestnut is demanding of attention and respect and not just because of his pedigree, though it is to be coveted as we will now show you.
[X] War Admiral is Intrepid Racing's first big hit in the breeding shed. While not a racer himself, due to aggression issues, he has produced some of the top thoroughbred racers known to SIM. His most well-known in these circuits is the MHS Triple Crown Winner, Admiral's Revenge (G1). Upcoming for this stallion is the three year old, Top Admiral, who just took second in a leg of the Canadian TC on The Wire, and Bellefire (G5). Also to his credit he is the sire of Admirable (G2), Warlock (G2) and Atalanta (G2). The stallion has many outside foals from the MHS circuit that are extremely accomplished like Crimson Lake. All around, War Admiral is a top producer of fiery, temperamental and lightening quick get.
[X] Stormwing is a name that you will see in a lot of legendary horses pedigrees. Stormwing has 31 wins, 33 places and 12 shows to her name. Among those numbers she is the only horse to be a two time Twilight Stakes Winner, she's also a Kentucky Derby Winner, a Dubai Place and a Breeder's Cup Classic Show. Obviously, she is a proven racehorse, but she is also a proven dam. She is the dam of Xenophon ( sire of G1 Geronimo), Determination (Grandsire of GS Gallant Prince), Dynasty, Axhel Rhose and G1 GS Remington (record of 65-21-18-16). All of her foals have gone on to be winning producers and from her lines have risen many BC champions and G1 racers.
