Clever naming if you trace the dam side of the pedigree for a UK runner named One Night Stand. He's out of Tipsy Girl, who was in turn out of Disco Lights.

Warrior's Reward is actually a clever name despite how generic it sounds.
Medaglia d'oro (sire) is Italian for "Medal of Gold," and is usually short hand for Medaglia d'oro al valor militare, which translates to "Gold Medal of Military Valour." It is an award given to soldiers for gallantry.
The dam's name is "For All You Do" - which is essentially why awards are given - and the grandpa is "Seeking the Gold."

Given the draconic restrictions on Australians, that makes sense. At least we can travel even if CDC disapproves!Honor Code wrote: ↑Sat Jul 24, 2021 9:19 pm Saw this one on Twitter

I ran marathons. I saw the Taj Mahal by Moonlight. I drove Highway 1 in a convertible. I petted Zenyatta.
