Refer to my post #28 from 2 years ago. Nothing has changed in my mind from 2 years ago, except you can now add Maori Law's as an Inter winner descended from the immortal Maori Miss. The hoary old chestnut about Bank Note still raises its head nearly 5 decades on.
As an aside, the champion Maori's Idol (foaled 49 years ago) boasted a double cross of Volomite. This has through Light Brigade, sire of his dam's sire Grand Monarch and his OWN SIRE'S dam Nancy Mite. I have always been of the opinion Maori's Idol bore a great resemblance to his ancestor Volomite - see his photo here https://harnessmuseum.com/content/volomite and, like him, was a horse that advanced the breed.
I'll leave it at that.
