Native Trail
The best unbeaten juvenile colt descended from Danzig and from the same Green Desert sire line as I Am Invincible. Unbeaten leader of his crop at two, like Shamardal, Pinatubo and City Of Troy – and faster in the G1 Dewhurst than them all. Also faster winning the G1 Irish 2,000 Guineas than Kingman, Churchill, Paddington – and Dubawi.
