[VVV] I've done it in the past (it was kind of Brett Coffey's idea so I can blame him because it didn't work quite as well as I'd have liked) but in view of the result, Abercrombie's not a horse that I'd be looking to linebreed like that. I reckon it risks dulling down their point to point speed, my observation is that many of the horses bred that way tend to be stronger than they are fast, but as always there's an exception to every rule & Grand Stride is a very notable one as he does have a fair lick of high speed. Phil's hit on the most important part, noting that there was a 2yo quinella from daughters of Scoots Away. Maternal families. The rest is just window dressing.
