As the $50,000 crop also includes On Verra, runner-up in the G1 Prix Marcel Boussac, and Zanzibari, winner of the G3 Prix de Cabourg, there=s reason to get excited about these future crops. It is easy enough to see why Smart Strike was selected as the 2006 mate for Private Feeling. The son of Mr. Prospector had already demonstrated a proclivity for mares with Danzig blood, his 14 foals out of Danzig mares featuring Canadian Horse of the Year Soaring Free and the Grade III winner High Strike Zone. He had also been represented by the Grade I winner Shadow Cast, whose dam was by Danzig=s son Dayjur. Now we also know that Smart Strike is an excellent match for mares by Belong to Me, another son of Danzig. From only six foals out of Belong to Me=s daughters, he has also sired the stakes-winning Striking Tomisue and the GII Arkansas Derby winner Papa Clem. .
