(Epsom Derby, Two Thousand Guineas and the St Leger), and was also noted for his speed as the winner of sprint races in the Woodcote Stakes, Coventry Stakes and Champagne Stakes.
Quickly was the dam of five foals with four winners, one stakes winner and one stakes placed runner. Her stakes winner was Count Fleet and her stakes placed runner
was the AQHA Hall of Fame stallion Depth Charge. Count Speed, a full brother to Count Fleet, was a race winner of nine starts in 22 races. He was the sire of horses that earned $3,060,452 with 12 stakes winners. The last foal out of Quickly was Reigh Fleet, another full sister to Count Fleet and a race winner in 11 starts. She is the dam of Fleet Charge by Depth Charge. This gelding earned $115,192 winning stakes like the Playfair Mile and the Governor’s Cup. Fleet Charge has a breeding pattern of 2x2 to Quickly.
One Bell, the dam of Blue One was
a race winner of four races in 26 starts.
She earned $12,445. She was the dam of eight foals/winners with one stakes placed runner in Single Tally, who was third in the 5-furlongs San Bruno Stake. His sire was Count Speed, and this makes him a full brother in blood to Blue One.
The sire of One Bell was Eight Thirty, a winner of 16 of his 27 starts including sprint races in the Toboggan Handicap (twice) and the Flash Stakes. Eight Thirty was the sire of horses that won $6,906,225 with 45 stakes winners. Among his stakes winners was Bolero, a Track Record Setter and winner of sprint races like the San Carlos Handicap at 7-furlongs.
Quickly was out of Stephanie, a race winner at two and the dam of such stakes winners as Crout Au Pot, Great Haste (full brother to Quickly) and Silver Spear. Stephanie was also the dam of Stepwisely, the dam of Bolero, who set two World Records including his win in the 1950 Pacific Handicap where he ran 6-furlongs in 1:08 1/5. Bolero is the sire of Bolero Rose, the dam of Crimson Saint, the dam of Terlingua. Terlingua is the dam of the leading Thoroughbred sire Storm Cat. Crimson Saint is the dam of Pancho Villa, a sprinter winning such races as the King’s Bishop at 7-furlongs. Pancho Villa is a full brother to Terlingua.
Stephanie is sired by Stefan The Great, who won the 6-furlong Middle Park
Stakes at two. He was injured in the 2000 Guineas and retired with two wins in three starts. Stefan The Great was sired by The Tetrarch that won all seven of his starts at two. These races include the Champagne Stakes, Woodcote Stakes, Coventry Stakes and National Breeder’s Produce Stakes, running from 5-furlongs to 1 mile. An injury prevented his running in longer races at three, so he was retired to stud.
As we have seen, The Tetrarch is a source of speed. We saw this with Mumtaz Mahal, the dam of Mumtaz Begum, the dam of Nasrullah, and she is also the dam Sun Princess, the dam of Royal Charger (Royal Charger and Nasrullah are 3/4-brothers
and found in the pedigree of Seattle Slew).
Mumtaz Mahal is the dam of Mah Mahal, the dam of Mahmoud. Mahmoud showed his speed as a winner of the 7-furlong Champagne Stakes and the 6-furlong Richmond Stakes. He also won the Epsom Derby at 1 miles, 4-furlongs, and 6 yards. Mahmoud was the sire of Moolah Bux, who was a sire of Quarter Horses.
The dam of Stephanie is Malachite. She was the winner of the 1916 Alabama Stakes. Malachite was sired by Rock Sand and out of Miss Hanover by Hanover. Rock Sand was the 1903 British Triple Crown winner
Quickly was the dam of 5 foals, including AQHA Hall of Fame stallion Depth Charge (shown).
