Surprisingly there have been very few winners who go on to have winning offspring, only nine stallions and three mares. There are two families that Breeders' Cup winners seem to run in with Unbridled starting a three generation win streak as a sire and Personal Ensign starting another three generation streak as a broodmare. Below is a list of the winners and their winning offspring. You can view the full list of sires of Breeders' Cup winners here.
