His sire Kodiac is a half-brother to champion sire Invincible Spirit and his female family is packed with Black Type and traces back to Mill Reef mare Sandy Island, whose daughter Subterfuge (GB) has spawned an impressive stakes dynasty in Australasia featuring countless Group winners such as Summer Passage and Shania Dane.
