By the excellent Shanghai Bobby and out of good producing mare Dica the colt is a homebred for Stud Eternamente Rio a half-brother to 2016/2017 Champion 2YO Colt of Brazil Jadir. He won three of his five races, including those two at the very top level while racing in South America, enough to convince Phoenix Thoroughbred's to buy him and switch him to racing in American.
