Official pedigree
The official four-generation pedigree and female-family record are displayed below, followed by our Thoroughbred Solutions analysis.
Executive summary
A bay colt by Diatonic from 2200-metre winner Bonloe. The mating places Japanese sprint-mile speed over the depth and stamina of Vadamos, with Mufhasa, The Bostonian, Kovalica and Sacred Satono close on the page.
Diatonic was a ten-time winner and multiple Group 2 and Group 3 sprint-miler by Lord Kanaloa. His speed, toughness and longevity provide an exciting counterpoint to the stronger-distance influences on the dam side.
Bonloe won over 2200m and is a half-sister to Group 3 winner and dual Group 1-placed Sacred Satono. She is the first foal opportunity from a mare whose immediate family has performed from sharp sprint trips through to Derby distances.
MufhasaTwenty wins, ten Group 1 victories and twice New Zealand Horse of the Year.
The BostonianTen wins including the Group 1 Canterbury Stakes, Doomben 10,000 and Kingsford-Smith Cup.
KovalicaQueensland Derby and multiple Group winner; more than $4.3 million in earnings on the catalogue page.
Sacred SatonoSeven wins, dual Group 3 winner and Group 1 placed in the Telegraph and Tarzino Trophy.
Cheval d’OrGroup 3 Championship Stakes winner.
The ownership case
Third dam Sheila Cheval produced New Zealand Horse of the Year Mufhasa. Her descendants include three-time Group 1 winner The Bostonian, Queensland Derby winner Kovalica and Group 3 winner Cheval d’Or—exceptional range and repeated elite performance.
This is a deliberate balance of pace and staying depth. Diatonic brings acceleration; Bonloe and Vadamos add scope; and the female family has already produced champion sprinters, elite milers and a Derby winner. That versatility makes the colt’s racing journey especially intriguing.
