Algorithms:
[GSV = 73.16, GSV = 73.16] He
is ranked #3 because of the ease he may destroy the
chances of Hansen to win the Kentucky Derby. He is by
Bernardini out of a Cryptoclearance mare. When Cryptoclearance
hits in a pedigree he really, really hits. When he
misses, most cannot win a race of any type. But this is no
ordinary mare. She’s
produced Justin Phillip, Successful Mission and Keyed
Entry before Algorithms. I’ve
been involved making matings for this family since I
arranged a mating for Happy Times Farm [Fleming B.
Fraser, one of the nicest clients I’ve ever had and who
showed me and my friend Barton Frauenfeld a great time
on a summer’s day at Saratoga in 1987]. I had nothing
to do with the mating by Bernardini, but since he
carried A.P. Indy out of Quiet American mare, he would
have been an ideal mate for Avaknowsthecode. Her early top
class runners have been by sires known for speed and not
being able to carry that speed classic distances. Keyed Entry
won the Hutcheson Stakes, but could not go on. Nothing
unusual about that as this Happy Time Farm family were
top class Ohio sprinters that could carry their speed a
bit, but not in the company of horses with Derby
qualifications. Update:I hope Sonny Fraser was
looking down from heaven today and watched Algorithms
win.

There is no better means for accurately measuring thoroughbred genetic potential
As
the originator of the GRASP scores from
which I derive the GSV, I offer the ONLY
up-to-date GSV scores in the world.
Each Year my Professional GSV program may be purchased for $300, which entitles the buyer to free updates during the year and renew the program the following year for only $150. There are currently over 77,000 thoroughbreds in the databank for which GSV scores will be instantly generated. GSV scores for all other thoroughbreds worldwide can be generated using through four different methods by the GSV Professional program. The most difficult aspect of understanding a thoroughbred pedigree is the value of the genetic strength of the broodmare's pedigree
