  1. may be they have


  2. Ruffian was by Reviewer who sired over 100 get (foals), way too many to list here, and out of a mare named Shenanigans who produced either 5 or 6 other foals. So she has many paternal half siblings and 5 or 6 maternal half siblings but no full siblings.

    Shenanigans was only crossed to Reviewer the one time. IMO, I don't think they used that cross again as both pedigrees were too filled with speed and light bone only, viewed as a "soft cross" as there wasn't enough horses with stamina and good or dense bone to balance it out.

    She had all the speed but not enough bone to actually support it. In short what made her great was in the end her downfall. Truly a tragic story.

    You can see Reviewers get here:

    And here you can see Shenanigans produce record:

    Hope this helps. If you wish to read more about Ruffian and the horses in her pedigree that helped contribute to both her extreme speed and bone issue you can find an article o it here:
