THE record of his sire’s other sons is one of the things we look at when examining the prospects of a young stallion, and Group 1 winner Vadamos passes that test with flying colours. Monsun (by Konigsstuhl) was one of the all-time great German stallions, and his daughters and sons have extended his influence. Two of the latter have sired six flat Group/Grade 1 winners apiece, so far, and another has made a striking impression with his first crop.
