His daughter Gippeumnuri was purchased for $15,000 by SROA at the 2009 Ocala Breeders’ 2 Year Spring Sale and went on to be named a full 2 year old Korean import champion in that year.
Descendants of Eurosilver have earned more than $12.1 million. His biggest earner is a double-sided campaigner Silver Sashay who didn’t win the bet but won 15 out of 47 starts and made $390,185.
