Prussian Blue combines the two most successful lines in modern racing,
Northern Dancer and Mr. Prospector, but with the unusual twist of extreme
stamina. Only a tiny percentage of races anywhere in the world are 1-1/2
miles or more. Prussian Blue, an outstanding turf performer, won distance
stakes and allowances in France, England, and the USA. Prussian Blue is
big, classically beautiful, and structurally correct. He has the elegance
of a champion hunter, the endurance for eventing and the élan of a world-class
jumper. |

| Mr. Prospector's bare race record did not reflect the flashes of brilliance he showed, such as when he set a track record at Gulfstream Park in 1973 that stood unequaled until his great grandson Artax matched it in the 1999 Breeders' Cup Sprint. Mr. Prospector is an outstanding sire in every way, he topped the leading sires in North America twice, in 1987 and 1988. He also topped the leading sires of two year olds several times and has been the leading broodmare sire in North America for several years. Sire of 169 Stakes winners, Mr. Prospector remains the all time leading sire of Stakes winners. | |||
