The WB was submitted by the Burns family.
Forty years ago their filly Balidaress won the Cheveley Park Stakes a year after her half sister Desirable.
(Check An Capall Strikes Again thread for the back story).
Anyways Sheikh Mo bought both fillies and their dam Balidaress , giving $1.6 million for the latter in foal to Alydar ( ALidaress resulted) and multiple millions for Park Appeal privately.
Mr Burns bought stud farms for his children with the proceeds.
By the way Park Appeal is paternal great grand dam of Wootton Bassett.
