Van Nistelrooy is from the outstanding broodmare, Halory.
Halory, by Halo, is an outstanding broodmare with the ability to impart class and ability over and above the sire's influence.
This remarkable producing mare has left five individual Group winners and two stakes placed runners - all by different sires - among her nine individual winners.
The daughter of Halo, dam-sire of Rahy, Machiavellian and Harlan, is a sister to the Group winner, Halo Reply, who in turn is the grand-dam of top filly Strategic Maneuver. This is also the immediate family of Japanese racetrack sensation and now sire Genuine.
VAN NISTELROOY is bred on the same Storm Cat/Halo cross as HARLAN, sire of top-class performers: HARLAN’S HOLIDAY - 1st Florida Derby, G1, Blue Grass S, G1, Donn H, G1, 2d Dubai World Cup, G1 MENIFEE - 1st Haskell Invitational H, G1, Blue Grass S, G1, 2d Kentucky Derby, G1, Preakness S, G1
