5 Time Darley Champion & Highest Money Earner in U.S. Arabian Racing History, 2008 WAHO Horse of the Year, Two Time Darley Horse of the Year

The Pure Polish DA ADIOS became a modern day legend as he won 19 times (9 stakes) in 5 years and earned a record $622,048. He has won every major stakes race there is, including the Arabian Cup Classic (G1) twice and the UAE Equestrian and Racing Federation S. (G1). A five-time Darley winner (including twice Horse of the Year) this compact bay has proven that it's not the size of the horse, but the size of the heart.

His first foals are 2-year-olds in 2009.

DA ADIOS is by another legend, WIKING, a racing champion, Hall of Fame member and many times leading sire. He has also proven to be a sire of sires with his champion sons MONARCH AH and PATRIOT MISSLE already established at stud. DA Adios looks to take his place on this list.

His dam is the stakes-placed winner, Sanibel IA (3rd AJC Oaks (G1)), who was exported to Turkey in 1999. She is also the dam of Calamare (2nd Cre Run Oaks (G3)) and the winner Sani-B IA. Sanibel IA's granddam is SASANKA, the dam of MONARCH AH, so DA Adios is bred very similarly to that leading sire. Sanibel IA is by SAMTYR, yet another champion and leading sire. With all this sire power behind him, DA Adios could be next to take over the crown.

PROGENY:

First foals are two year olds in 2009.
