Rio Buscador
Born February 5, 2001

She came into the world in the quiet of the early morning, just before dawn.

She is strong and healthy, tall and straight, --- and spunky! 

This filly possesses Power Genetics numbers higher than either the sire or the dam -- she has exceeded what we anticipated from the breeding. We believe we have over-achieved what the mating was expected to produce.  The filly resembles neither the sire nor the dam, but actually looks like, and is built like, Mr. Prospector himself. This is exactly (theoretically) what is supposed to happen in a successful line breeding. The filly's line breeding is 3/8 Mr. Prospector (a direct offspring of Mr. Prospector would be 4/8).  We believe we have achieved a successful line breeding -- intensifying the good qualities and eliminating the unwanted traits. All indications at this time are that we have produced a top level racehorse possessing the necessary qualities to reproduce top level racehorses.

The following are the breeding "odds on favorite" for our genetic pool.

78% probability of the horse possessing extreme speed at a mile distance on the turf.

97% probability of the horse having a burst of speed of one-quarter mile at the finish.

94% probability of the horse racing a mile on the turf as its best racing distance and surface.

52% probability of perfect cosmetic conformation.

76% probability that the horse will have conformation that will not interfere with the horse's racing ability.
