Medaglia d Oro
With the graded stakes victories of Moonlight d Oro and Risk Taking over the weekend, their sire Medaglia d Oro now has 76 graded stakes winners worldwide, from 148 stakes winners bred in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. Moonlight d Oro won the Grade 3 Las Virgenes Stakes at Santa Anita on Feb. 8, and shortly thereafter on Saturday, Risk Taking won the G3 Withers at Aqueduct. It was the first stakes victory for each horse.
Their sire is most famous for the champions Rachel Alexandra (Kentucky Oaks, Preakness Stakes, Haskell) and Songbird (Breeders Cup Juvenile Fillies and eight other Grade 1 races), but there is no question that Medaglia d Oro is a gold medal stallion.
