00:00In just over a month, grade one winner Olympiad will be right here at Keeneland for the Breeders'

00:07Cup Classic.

00:08But before that, his younger brother by American pharaoh, himself a classic winner at this

00:13same track, looks to make some news of his own.

00:16He sells on Wednesday at Keeneland September and book two with the Gainesway consignment.

00:22This colt was actually raised at Gainesway and so we've had him from start to finish

00:28so we've kind of really got to see the process with him as he has progressed through all

00:34the stages.

00:35He was kind of like your teenage boy for a while and then all of a sudden he started

00:40to show this other side that he's starting to blossom into, the horse that he's going

00:47to be.

00:49He is a very large individual for his age.

00:53He's big, stands over a lot of ground.

00:55Very kind-eyed.

00:57You know, when you look at him, you see a horse that's really going to grow physically

01:03into a big, strong horse.

01:07It's so exciting to get to watch a horse like Olympiad compete because he has so much ability

01:13and when you are bringing up the next generation in that family, it really excites you to think

01:21what that horse could become.

01:23This is a great family.

01:25The horses are very different physically but that ability that runs in the family you hope

01:34runs true here because this colt looks like he could go over a lot of ground.

01:40He's just a big, strong individual.

01:43He's been very well-received.

01:45He's been very busy up at the other barn and he's done everything we've asked him

01:48to do.

01:49He's a very eager, willing kind of horse, very kind horse and he's excelled up there.

01:56He's just one of those individuals that is easy to be around.
