Den's Legacy makes his mark in G3 Generous Stakes

Medaglia d'Oro two-year-old Den's Legacy showcased his young talent November 24 with a decisive win in the G3 Generous Stakes at Hollywood. The Medaglia d'Oro colt was entering the G3 Generous Stakes after running second in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint Preview Stakes at Santa Anita in early November.

Positioning himself in a striking position in fourth for the one mile turf race, Den's Legacy made a strong move in the stretch to slip along the inside and prove much the best.

Bred by Gaye Swartz, Den's Legacy is out of the mare Sunshine Song who is a half-sister to C. S. Silk, a G1 winner also by Medaglia d'Oro, as well as G3 winner Remember Sheikh and Stakes winner Memory Tap.

Den's Legacy becomes the 17th Graded Stakes winner for Medaglia d'Oro, keeping company with the likes of Horse of the Year Rachel Alexandra and G1 Kentucky Oaks winner Plum Pretty. He has sired a total of eight G1 winners to date, among them G1 Rodeo Drive Stakes winner Marketing Mix on the turf this year.
