For full pedigree go to Pedigreequery.com:

Be sure to click on the photos and info about the horses in her pedigree.  In a breed where most horses are blue-blooded, Bianconi's pedigree is spectacular.  The info on Bianconi is harder to find since he was exported to Australia.  He's a prominent race sire there and at least one commentator called him "the handsomest [TB] stallion in Australia."  As I expected, his retired runners are beginning to show up in sporthorse activities down under.
