Not a regular poster in the Racing thread, but…
A friend of mine just acquired a 10 y.o. OTTB mare. Although she and her daughters have much experience retraining OTTBs for eventing, they are not so much pedigree readers. I am not an OTTB person–know my riding and handling limits–but I find pedigrees interesting, regardless of the breed. So, I find this mare’s pedigree interesting, “old-fashioned” even. Maybe I’m wrong and some of you who are experts can correct me. Wouldn’t it be uncommon to find such a young horse with Ribot in the third generation and War Admiral and Hyperion in the fifth?[/QUOTE]
Ribot that close up? yes. War Admiral and Hyperion, not really.
Here is my best mare. She is old but her last foal is coming 3 this year so I do still have her bloodlines going here

I have Hail To Reason and The Axe in the second generation!
probably the most similar horses you will find currently to the OPs would be from Hoist The Flag lines
